This is an extremely ignorant post. If foreigners were in it for the money then they'd do something else in the esports field besides playing (such as coaching or commentating), there is no such thing as "easy foreign money". Going to korea and staying in a new country for an extended period of time is its own challenge beyond playing the game and there is a lot of hard work invovled with that, which most people either don't want to or simply can't handle.

Please do some research before posting.

That's your opinion. I don't agree IDRA said he moved back for more opportunity read more money. Again too bad for him Koreans followed.

Why do you think staying in a foreign country for an extended period of time with no friends and families is a very easy thing? It takes perseverance to stay in korea for an extended period of time.
IdrA said it himself, its a variety of reasons that brought him back to USA.
1) Growth of foreign esports. (Easy money yes!)
2) His family/friends are all back in the US.
3) No language barriers

Well I've done it loved it. I'm half German half Syrian and been in both with rudimentary language skills. Anyway don't fool yourself. Everything we do is about money from going to school to choices we make about were to move for a job. Every other consideration is self flattery.

I remember him staying something from some video I watched him in about going on July 18th. But I could be wrong. Sometime around there atleast. >.<;;

NaNiwa will go to Korea. He will learn the ways of the Koreans. He shall become one of the Koreans.

And then he shall conquer Korea and slay elephants.

... okay, you know what, I was with you up until that, Guenther, but 'slay elephants?' What, you're accusing me of being an amateur for being taken aback by a line that makes no sense... at all? Okay, I get it now, but it would have been nice if you told me what it meant beforehand. No, nevermind, back to the shoot, Jesus, stop taking everything so personally.

Good luck, man. Just look at the other foreigners who went to Korea with the sole intent of playing against the top competition to challenge themselves: HuK, Jinro, and Idra, they all improved DRASTICALLY. In fact, Huk improved the most of those 3 and easily of all the foreigners, and you could tell he had/has the same exact attitude as you, humble and ready to learn, but at the same time confident and aware of his potential.

So I think your attitude and, obviously, your skill will bring you success in Korea. And even if the success doesn't come in the form of winning games in the GSL, remember that you had the drive to go to a foreign country simply because you wanted to play against the best and test yourself against that caliber of players. For a sports analogy, I'd rather lose against NBA players and know where I stand than dominate a Rec league and never know how good I could be.
