There is 19 Koreans in the pools - that is just SICK. How would it look if Spain had 4 teams in the EURO 2012? Should they be allowed to do that because they are the best? MLG really needs to have a maximum number of players from each country like every other serious sport out there. Make the biggest sc2 nations have a higher "player cap" than the smaller ones - make a seeding based on the country's RANKING. Example: Korea rank 1 country in the world: gets to have 8 players travel to MLG Sweden rank 2 country in the world: gets to have 8 players travel to MLG Russia rank 5 country in the world: gets to have 5 players travel to MLG Norway rank 18 in the world: gets to have 1 player travel to MLG This is a way it could be done - because right now people are losing interest because the tournament is just flooding over with Koreans. Sure we see great play but there is NOTHING more - we need someone to root for, we need the drama outside the match. MLG last night was great - but after SaSe went out I just went to sleep - it was like there was nothing more to see. I love the Korean scene but right now MLG might as well change name to GSL. would suck too cause you have to regrit on the many us players ? or you cant have a new swedish guy in cause there are already 3 ? also its kind of rassistic ... its no world cup its a god damn tournament and its teh same in sports like DART or SNOOKER, you have 99% england people and then a few other xD the BEST should come for the BEST games so thats whats great no rassistic shit, also it means way more if alot of koreans are in. PS: why would i also want more guys get 0-2ed from koreans on groupstage ??? i want the best players and if you are good (stephano etc) you make 5-0 in group and just dont care ! | ||

Yeah many Koreans have no personality but things like GSL Off the Record, interviews, steaming can all change that. Letting foreigners win on purpose hurts the scene a lot more. There's always going to be tournaments without a ton of Koreans that foreigners can win. But the biggest and most prestigious (like MLG, IPL, etc.) need to be completely fair, or they need to be structured by country like WCS. | ||

We don't have high quality foreigner only tournaments. It's nice to have MLG and watch some koreans playing in a differente style then GSL, but some times I miss the foreigner vs foreigner, and at this point I really think that watching Stephano vs SaSe, Socke vs Grubby and even Idra vs RandomDude6Pooling is as fun as watching DRG vs MKP or any high level korean. | ||

It's not that they don't have personality, some of them just have a difficult time showing their personality because of the language barrier. | ||

Maybe we just think they have less personality because they don't speak english and post on TL? Plus behaving like a dick (i.e. naniwa) is a lame excuse for personality. | ||

Hell, this MLG we even had two foreigners in top6, and several quite well known/high profile koreans there too. It couldve been a lot worse. | ||

There's a reason people didn't take Naniwa's MLG dallas win that seriously; because there were no koreans. Really, would anyone take a SaSe or Stephano win at MLG seriously if it may just have very well been because they didn't let MKP, Bomber, MC, Nestea, etc. come to the tournament? It would turn the tournament into a kiddie pool of sorts. | ||
