I'm not convinced Blizzard is the only culprit for the ASL delay. I know there's the 80k licensing fee, but afreeka didn't have to put them on blast in public. Negotiations should have happened behind closed doors.



Blizzard is paying Afreeca to host the GSL. Blizzard is paying others for Overwatch and Hearthstone tournaments. There's no reason for Blizzard to force organizations to pay to run a SCBW tournament. If Blizzard actually has a defendable position, they should share it.
