But the near complete loss of team infrastructure in the Korean scene will still be a tragedy. ㅇㅅㅌㅅ

With no teams to compete against I wouldn't be surprised to see Jin Air disband by the end of the year. This must be what's taking Blizzard so long with the WCS announcement: they need to know if there will be a Korean scene next year.

I feel like the existence of teams doesn't really impact on the WCS system, it's an individual tournament. When did Blizzard announce last year, it was similarly late right?

At some point it stops being a meme and starts being something that has to be accepted: the game is all but dead in Korea.

MVP has players and teams in literally every goddamn game. The fact that SC2 seems less worth it in Korea than like CSGO which no one in Asia plays is a horrid sign of the environment we're dealing with Community News "As long as you have a warp prism you can't be bad at harassment" - Maru | @SetGuitars2Kill

User was warned for this post So the korean sc scene that basically created esports is now dead. Mindblowing. I guess the koreans prefer watching lol, that kart game and overwatch who appeals to 12 years olds.

Very hard. Gaming market has changed too much at this point. On top of that they couldn't even convince the BW crowd that SC2 is what they should switch to.



I love RTS and I hope Blizzard one day can make an RTS that brings in the big crowd. Very hard. Gaming market has changed too much at this point.
