So because your country blows in sc2 you want to bar the koreans from tournaments.... I just had a genius idea for my country to win the next olympics, you'll never guess what it is.

Reminds me of the whites-only basketball league some guy created 2 years ago in the (American) south. We can't compete so we'll play by ourselves. Oh, also we're racists!Q (they said they were tired of "Jungle Ball" haha morons).

Creating a tournament for non-koreans is not the same as barring koreans from tournaments.

Just like creating national/regional competitions doesn't do anything to the Olympics.

Sure, we have girls only tournament so we should have nonkorean tournaments too.

But that's not the issue. I would not be bothered by a foreigner only tournament. The problem is the blog title itself is "Why Koreans in the Foreign Scene is a bad idea" and he admits in his post that it's just because foreigners aren't good enough, but he somehow applies the blame to koreans (What the fuck) and then laments it's not fair they keep losing because they're professionals that try really really hard (obviously not hard enough; and what exactly do Koreans do? Not try really hard either?). Maybe they should seek new careers if they can't compete.

Instead of a blog that's like, "hey guise we should have a foreigner only team, get some lesser accomplished players some up-and-coming players and some fan favorites! It'll be great!" But instead he blames Koreans and QQs

He's right.
They still aren't banned from the major tournaments.
It's sort of TSL 1 & 2, but the context is a bit different, because TSL 1 & 2 existed in a time when foreign scene had no way to compete with korea. At the time, foreign scene had almost no tournament and thus no way to easily practice and maintain a high skill level. It's not the case anymore.
