The original Brood War scene started and grew fairly organically because people were interested in the game many wonder if it could happen again. KT Telecom, one of the biggest E-sports sponsors in Korea, has been putting in some decent dough into BW, and there's always a chance that their eternal rival SKT will want a slice of the action. The idea of there being a broadcasted 'team league' would have been outrageous 8 months ago. And TBLS have yet to do their mandatory military service, and some wonder how things will fair without them. There isn't a lot of new blood coming into the scene, and what is coming doesn't have the benefit of a development system. TBLS and a select few others are pulling in the big bucks, but less famous players are struggling for views. Currently all players are officially 'amateurs' who make their living by streaming. What's going to be interesting is seeing if/how the scene continues to develop. The most recent starleague, the ASL2, saw a lot of really great games, and its semi-finals match between Flash and Jaedong apparently got 500,000 viewers. Things really blew up when the four top players of all time, Stork, Flash, Bisu, and Jaedong, commonly known collectively as TBLS, came back and generated massive interest. The Afreeca Starleague in June 2016 proved to be an unexpected hit. With the collapse of the Korean SC2 professional apparatus, many of the former progamers have been returning to Brood War. So Star Craft Brood War, arguably the first major E-sport, is kinda back in Korea. September 10- ?: Afreeca Starleague 4- After Blizzard delayed poo poo for dumb reasons, the main league is finally back! And probably it will all be in HD! But it won't be on twitch! Check for specific dates, times, and stream links (my dates are for Korea), but as a quick thumbnail:
