For some reason #3 really touched me. TL Fighting!

Really well written write up, many thanks.

#6 makes me really confused. Is this the reason so many koreans cancelled? They probably found out they had to actually spend money to travel.

Nice write up, about the issue of #6, even though it only seems fair to treat everyone the same, I personally think Koreans should be treated better because honestly they make the events like 300% better.. can any of you imagine that dreamhack without the koreans? It was one of the best events I have watched, and I'm not sure if I would be saying that if the Koreans were not there. It was the same with MLG columbus, it was a superior MLG then the previous MLG's simply because of the Korean difference.

I mean treat these guys better and they will make your event worth while. Also the fact is if you don't have the top koreans competing in your tournament, your tournament doesn't have the top players in the world, people want to see the best in the world.


Koreans do not make events 300% better. Homestory cup was probably the best event this year, at least for me, MLG colombus was sick, until all the foreigners dropped out, then it got boring really fast.

Also if you want to get the best players like you said, why pay for tired players like bomber, july, moon etc, when you can get guys who truly are the best and actually are fun to watch, like MVP, MKP, MC and Nestea, Not-yet-superstars of sc2 should have to pay for themselves, pay for those who will give you spectators!

holy shit i want a stalker doll too !
i like sc2 more than wc3 because of its mind games , in wc3 the only mind game you could do is go for a different hero than normal to make your opponent thing you are retarded

Lol, is that story with Goody really true? I guess I begin to understand Cloud's pain of facing him TvT.

I think some of the Europeans posting on this thread don't realize that there are no $20 Ryanair flights from Korea to Sweden. The 4th place prize barely covers it, maybe not even.

I did some quick price comparisons and it's around $2000 for a round trip from Seoul to Stockholm.

I stopped reading after this line (not really):

"cheering at the top of my lungs at every drone kill or forcefield Chris Loranger did as if he was the second coming of (P)Nal_rA with a better haircut"

just click on Nal_rA's name and come back, HuK has a better haircut.

Liked #7, I'd love to see that game with commentary.

Excellent article. As an ex-WC3 players, so sorry for Moon, can't wait for Moon vs. Grubby finals somewhere, that would be absolutely epic. And, I love Jinro's attitude, very professional.
