somehow i feel this is a bit against the spirit of the NSL - to provide korean teams with sponsorships if/when they win to establish a healthy dota scene. i wonder if blitz and co intend to stay in korea to make use of it after, or if they'll jet home with extra cash that a korean team could otherwise use? You mean like the way Koreans merc the starcraft 2 scene? Fly in, raid prize money and leave. Turnabout is fair play.
Haha u dont know koreans. Koreans only admire skill nothing else. A few foreigners during the early years of BW turned pro in korea for many years. iirc one of them even won the osl and made it to finals a few times. If ur good enough, ur more than welcome in korea.
Would love for this team to do well and last long. Nexon pledge 1.7m USD annually for prize money. After the 3 NSL theres easily more than 1million left still over the course of half year. More than sufficient tournaments to keep this team going even if they dont win the next NSL.

Sweet dealios, hope we can catch some games of them...post vods when they come plz 
|
I wonder how they're doing in the qualifier right now
|
New blood is always good. And if you think this is bad for the korean scene you are wrong, playing a western team will give them knowledge and experience against creative strategies. Also it'll motivate them to beat the foreigners.  Hope they do well.

They just won their first game 31-8, if they win the next they qualify for the next round.

You can spectate their games now (for now), just head to the Community tab, find Pro Teams and search fOu.
Click Blitz's ID and choose watch game
It look's like they'll be qualifying for next stage/NSL (I have no idea on how format works)
edit: They qualified into the NSL. Well done Blitzuuuu~ and co
|
Any brackets or something like that?
Alaan Faraj @SexyBamboe 3h Welp first round against JesusStick... Guess we lost 
|
anyway to see the replays?
|
They qualified by going 2-0 in their group. Gogo Blitz \o/

Congrats blitz on qualifying... I myself am a korean american trying my hand at pro doto... the only difference between me and you is that I have been here for 3 years+ working hard at it. I do however look forward to playing against your team during nsl3 as I do enjoy a challenge
I do firmly believe however that the most rewarding part of a journey is not the destination but the road taken there. Gl hf.

Team name as of now is : Dont Die ReM1kZ.... sort of an inside joke. we also went 3-1 today and qualified for the round of 8. Zephyrs first match was against my team and we qualified through the losers bracket. 9 teams total. 5 teams qualified...

You don't need to be rude to him when he is answering someone else's question, and might not know about the edit button.
Good luck to Zephyr, it's refreshing to see people making sacrifices to help each other out.

I apologize... it is my first time posting on tl and I accidently pressed the post button with the enter key. I was also trying to just address some of the unanswered questions asked from previous posts as the korean scene is somewhat isolated. My fat thumbs and this smartphone are not a good combo I will keep in mind that I may edit my posts. In korea our forums and what not are closed off to foreigners as u need to register with a resident id number.... the equivalent of a ss number back stateside.

yeah dont worry about it, post as much as you want
