Not sure why your only posts in Stephano's fanclub is to bash the player for an innocuous tweet. Are you trolling or what? It is accepted that one of the main narrative's in SC2 is Koreans vs Foreigners. And it seems most of the time it comes down to Stephano being the last Foreigner remaining in a tournament against just Korean players. Stephano made reference to that fact, as it is again the case for this MLG Summer Arena. Are you new to SC2? Do you not understand that the term 'foreigners' is interchangeable with the term 'non-Koreans' when talking in SC2 terms? Do you object to the practice of this terminology in general? If so start a thread instead of complaining here about such a trite comment by Stephano. | ||

You're pretty stupid, the moment you started saying that Idra, Sheth, Stephano, Naniwa are considered "foreigners", you were in the same mindset as Stephano's, which is Korea vs Rest of the world, as it has been the case for about 10 years in SC. | ||

It's exactly the case in every sports man, i do support the french team not because of players, but because i'm french, and it doesn't make me a ''racist'' for every other country. GOGO STEPHANO ! | ||

But what you children are getting upset about is just ridiculous. Language barrier, server separation, cultural differences and especially years and years of korean dominance in competitions formed this way of thinking. There is Korean starcraft players and there is the rest. it is absolutely normal of stephano to refer to them the way he did. in addition we should not forget that he is in a tournament mind set at the moment. they are basically all enemies at the moment. so to sum it up; there was no racism here. and the fact that you get rattled even a little bit by that comment a) surprises me and b) makes me very happy for you. because you must have a hell of a nice and easy life if shit like that gets on your radar. don't get your panties in a bunch. | ||

You make a somewhat valid point, but you're sidestepping everything else. It's just the storyline of Kor vs non-Kor and other things, as remodemo nicely explained. You gotta skate. | ||
