So instead of learning from the koreans and adapt their system, we'll just buy koreans instead? That or keep paying worse players who don't practice as hard. Congrats to coL on getting another great player. I'm not a coL fan at all, but I can't hate on them for getting both of these great players. | ||

It may not be the right path for foreigner teams, but it's probably better overall for SC2 as an e-sports. Currently, foreign teams have the money but not the talent. Korea has the talent but not the money. Might as well buy the Korean talent so that overall everyone can succeed. Or at least succeed more. Foreign teams have sent representatives to Korea but it's one thing to place someone in a Korean training environment and another thing for them to have and maintain a Korean training mentality. When it comes down to it, foreign teams don't have the discipline to develop the talent to the level of Korea and thus it lags behind. That's not everything of course, it's a mutli-dimensional paradigm, but it's a big contributor. | ||

On the other hand, I think part of the reason so many Koreans are keen on joining foreign teams is because they want a little more freedom in how they live and train--but it is those strict patterns that make the korean scene better in the first place. Is there another way? It reminds me of the debate in hockey cirlces in the 70's (for any of you familiar with the sport) when Russian players were thought to be catching up with and passing Canadian players, largely via living the same way as Korean SC pros do (though in more strict terms). | ||

It was the same in War3 - MYM's line-up at one point was Moon (KR), Lucifer (KR), SocceR (KR), and Grubby (and I think I'm forgetting maybe two more players, hmm) -- so it's not like it's anything new. Foreigners need to start performing better. | ||
