Besides what was already mentioned, Scan streams on twitch, interacts with viewers in English, brings us behind the scene info and helps us translate stuff. The way I see it, this TLS is built around the idea that it's for the foreign scene and its communities. Korean or Mongolian, Scan is a part of this community, and he's even a contributing member. If Bisu wants to become a part of TL or reps.ru pr psistorm or whatever, then he'd be allowed too. So this is how the league was conceived by the ppl who organize it. You can discuss whether that concept is good or bad forever but lawyering and providing claims about Scan's nationality is a waste of everyone's time. The question you want to be asking in that regard is: Is Scan a TLer? But we all know the answer to that. And he's a great TLer at that. Also, if we actually let the few interested Koreans become a full part of our community, we can gain and learn a lot from them. Basically, the benefits of living in Korean BW environment would be that much closer to us. So it's not like this is a one-way service at all. Scan is a perfect example of that. I've read stratos' comment and he has a point but I agree with technics too. Just change the damn wording if that's your intention and you'll solve most of the problem since atm the organisers appear bad, like how someone raising money for a cancer would look bad if he's actually giving the raised money for polio. Scan being allowed due to "and others" sneakily sneaked in is just bad communication after all the previous emphasis on foreigners as nonKorean/Chinese (which he definitely is not). Redefine it as something like that below and it'll be better. Technics (who I agree with) might be satisfied and people who object can only talk about him being too good instead of arguing about how he's korean or a foreigner because it's undeniable that he participates and contributes. Who is eligible to play in the TLC? TeamLiquid Legacy Cup series was organized to strengthen the activity and support of the foreign BW scene (read non-Korean/Chinese). Additionally, the purpose of this series of tournaments is to foster a practicing environment in preparation of TLS Championship. As such, the people eligible to play in these tournaments is everyone outside Korea and China. Non-foreigners will be considered separately based on their participation and contribution to the foreign BW scene. In the end " strengthen the activity and support of the foreign BW scene " still reads funny if all the money is going to a korean (assuming he wins) and you could still improve on the wording. ATM you just sound hypocritical despite all the hard and sincere work put in. | ||

We are going to get our asses kicked by the only Korean in the tour that is the closest to semi-pro player there has ever been in the Korean scene. That is 0 chance to fight for first place ;( Olympic zerg? Sc is dead now officially if Julia has olympic. | ||

I'll put a 10$ bounty on anyone who beats/knocks scan out of a tournament. If scan loses no tournament between now and December 15th I will give him $100. I will take $10 away from the hundred dollar scan pool for every tournament he loses. I call this profit. | ||

What I propose is pretty simple and logical and I don't really have a problem as I probably won't be able to attend a good amount of the cups. It's a matter of principle. BisuDagger, did you read my suggestion for the TLS cups organisation and do you plan on answering on that at some point? | ||

I call this profit. very nice idea,thanks so much for do all this for foreigners  stimulate koreans is always welcome to help our scene,oh wait actually there are few who keep playing the game after all this years of TLS,but not reward at all when big tournament back just put one korean imba to win us all ^_^ Fantastic.still remember the old stars tournaments organized by artanis,at the end sziky was right,so much hype for old players but the new ones just got shit,i didnt played this koth giving my place to non zerg players since the line was full of zergs,but wathever.. all this just looks unfair to me. | ||
