For me it is just the other way round: I would not care at all who wins it, if there were no koreans. Who wants to see cruncher oder slush top5? You know something is going wrong when this happens -.- | ||

edit: FWIW, Dongreagu vs MMA was crazy, and from a purely gameplay perspective much more interesting than the foreigner vs foreigner games. | ||

Boxer ofcourse is awesome, and MC I can relate to, even Puma I could cheer for. MMA and MVP didn't leave a lasting impression on me - hope they return more often so I remember them better. It's just that they are new and got the language barrier in interviews, but a Yellow/Boxer/July/Nal_Ra tourney would be just as emotional for me as a White-Ra/Goody/Idra/Naniwa tourney. For me, there should just be done more to show the players distinct personality, espacially the koreans who often seem more shy and arn't as dividing in love or hate. Voted for best players. | ||

I also like Boxer and MMA (and MC and Losira to some extent) because I have gotten to know them a bit more. I think I feel the same way as a lot of people. I don't want to see the Koreans fail, I want to see the foreigners that I know more about and have grown fond of do better. I don't get mad that a Korean won, I get mad that none of my favorite players won. I voted for the TvT thing. So many tanks and vikings, damn... | ||

It wasn't the fact they were all Terrans, and have nothing but TvTs. It was the fact they were all Koreans playing nothing but TvTs. If you looked at the brackets, you would have known immediately who was going to win it in the round of 4. | ||

So basically, I was disappointed in what happened, but I'm not upset that the Koreans took over MLG. They are the best and they deserved it. Great win by MVP and a fun tourney to watch. | ||

I want to watch the best of the best, or cheer for who I feel like cheering for. Sub-par games by foreigner stompers against each other didn't seem interesting. I'm not "upset" they won. I'm sure they deserved it. Just stopped caring about who was winning. | ||

Having EVO at the same time certainly didn't help out MLG. I cannot stand Marvel, but you have to admit that was amazing play to reset the finals. | ||

Instead, we were shown Korean Terrans defeating everyone else....repeatedly. They are some of the best in the world, but when the last zerg (DRG) lost, I refused to watch another blue flame hellion battle. | ||
