It does matter in that it demonstrates Korean progaming houses and Korea training produces better players than a western style of training

Why is it saying LIVE STREAMS WILL BEGIN SHORTLY?

Aren't there matches going on right now?

So how does this actually work. How many players from each pool continue?

Wait a second.... so your saying.. if you practice more.. in a competitive environment, you'll get better at something?

I dunno... I mean sure there is SOME proof of that like I don't know with the university system, or EVERY PRO SPORT... but are you sure? Sounds like a crazy theory to me.

Because they're going to show winners bracket instead, so you get the best players?


But of all the rounds to coincide with the winner's bracket, why pick round #6? They could just as easily pick Round #5.



And that includes BoxeR, so contrary to the first part of your post they'll get some games from the "fan favorite"?


I was talking about Day#1 and Day#2. If I remember correctly, they only broadcast 1 BoxeR series per day. There were other players that were getting broadcast multiple times per day.



I'd rather watch close games instead of watching all the Koreans just stomp everyone in their groups like we knew they were going to.


Huk and IdrA are without a doubt the two foreigners with the biggest following. But their first appearance of the day (round #6) will not be broadcast at all.

And as for Koreans "stomping" everyone, you have such a fatalistic view. History has proven that the most watched games are not foreigner vs foreigner games. They are not korean vs korean games. The most hyped games have always been Foreigner vs Korean games, which would've been readily available in Round #6. That could very well have been MMA vs White-Ra, or Ganzi vs Ret, not to mention the possibility of a Naniwa vs IdrA matchup.

Personal bias? Oh noes!

One thing you should learn early is not to judge a player's skill by one tournament alone.

Don't get in between Artosis and his true love, that transends all duties as a caster.
