"I think after a short transition phase, we'll see most of the tournaments, players and teams moving toward the newer game," said Baschi in an interview with Blizzgamers.com. "eSport probably can't really afford the luxury of supporting two Blizzard RTS games on the same level over more than a year, though I really hope Warcraft 3 will live on for many years."

Baschi has no doubts about StarCraft 2 becoming a great game and cited Blizzard's work ethic and creativity. He said that the Warcraft 3 players with the best micromanagement will be the ones that will do well in the new game.
