should limit the number of foreigners instead so you don't get bad players (and then shitty games). | ||

It's not a matter of nationality, it's simply a matter of the better players. For this shitty nationality stuff that u want Blizzard is doing the WCS so you will get your fair share of patriotism. | ||

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. So, Norway rank 22 in the world: get 1 player Russia rank 21in the world: get 1 player Sweden rank 19 in the world: get 2 player Korean skips 18 rank higher than the world, which is rank 1: get 19 players. Seems fair to me. | ||

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. The Korean haters will complain that Select is "Korean" and we'll see another whine thread. Lol. Others will complain because it's so much better to watch DRG vs Alicia. So I heard the OP likes to watch mediocre tournaments. Might as well watch a stream of a bronze league player, you're not gonna see many Koreans there. | ||

For this shitty nationality stuff that u want Blizzard is doing the WCS so you will get your fair share of patriotism. using barcelona as an exemple isn't quite accurate atm :D | ||

It's really that simple. I can't believe people keep making threads about this. | ||

Champions league is deliberately and stubbornly holding to their concept of not allowing more than 4 clubs per nation. They even changed the system a few years ago to make it easier for weaker nations to have at least 1 representative club. Weaker nations love it, but bigger nations are calling for a sort of superleague where England, Spain, Italy and Germany would have 7-8 representatives. Personally, I don't mind the Koreans as long as we have at least a few foreigners in it - I probably wouldn't watch an MLG with no foreigners in and that could easily happen soon: Picture it when Stephano & Thorzain go to Korea, Naniwa and Sase for example stay/qualify for GSL Code S/A, and others like Huk for example can't attend - BOOM all Koreans in the main thing, while the foreigners bash each other in the Open Bracket. Along with some more Koreans. If it doesn't happen this way, it will happen once the Kespa guys get good. That's like 15 more MMA level players within 6 months. It would be ideal if foreigners simply kept earning their places, because it would be a shame to have to put a cap on the number of Koreans. It would mean fake competition and would decrease the prestige of winning MLGs... | ||

It's not like there's not tons of mediocre tournaments, too. They just aren't winning 25k for being mediocre. | ||
