What's wrong with KR vs KR as long it promises the best Starcraft possible? Would you not tune into Barca vs Real Madrid just because it's Spain vs Spain? or MVP vs Nestea? or Flash vs Jaedong? Maybe you guys are frustrated that the non-koreans flopped when push came to shove, but that shouldn't really deter you from tuning into a final with 2 worthy players.
Oh well, it's only your loss if you don't watch it.
I watch Barca vs Real but I don't watch Real vs Villareal, and that match would better describe the current situation.
3 Koreans came (Select doesn't count) to the event, 2 of them are in the finals.
MC is accomplished, but Puma isn't, so Barca vs Real analogy doesn't relate.
If MVP and Nestea came, and made the finals, I bet we wouldn't see as many people complaining about KvK finals. Sure you can argue that Puma is just as good but unaccomplished because of lack of luck, but you know yourself accomplishments have their weight in situations like this.

Anyone else tuning out? I love MC but I'm a little bored of Korean vs Korean. Nope, I love Korean vs Korean!
I don't care about Korean or not, I love awesome players playing each other and I don't like unskilled players playing each other.

Anyone know if White-Ra vs Puma showmatch in 25 minutes is gonna be streamed?

I slept through the mana vs MC games, are they worth watching, at least as an MC fan? If you're an MC fan why wouldn't you watch them lol. But yeah game 1 was really great the other ones were pretty one sided imo. One sided does not mean that they are not worth watching. Because they were not one sided because Mana played bad. Just MC played extremely well and there is a lot to learn from those games. Unlike Socke Mana did not defeat himself, MC defeated him. EDIT: I mean that as complement for Mana not Socke. Mana made some questionable decisions, and his PvP is not on top Korean/HuK/Naniwa level, but he played well, Socke just killed himself.
I agree with this. Mana is a good toss but mc outplayed him. And even though puma did made some mistakes and did not play perfect as he usually did, Socke did not deserve to win at all.
I was watching some mana pvps yesterday and felt it would be quite a challegne for mc. But mc proved me wrong, I was quite impressed to mc's response to the gas steal because I personally find it very annonying when ppl do that to me.

-.- Wow I wake up wondering what scores they are and find that the semi's were something along the lines of "Koreans own white dudes"... at least we have a rematch of MC v Puma.

Puma isn't accompolished? I'll admit he hasn't really shown us what he can do in the GSL, but you should remember how frigging hard it is to just qualify for Code A. Even players like MMA, DRG, and Bomber had a very difficult time getting into the GSL proper, and we all knew how beastly they were. Also, PUMA FRIGGING WON THE FIRST NASL. How the fuck is that not a huge accomplishment? He rampaged through the open tournament, and stormed through the LAN finals to win a very closely contested grand finals vs MC, who was and still is, considered the best protoss in the world. HOW THE FUCK IS THAT NOT AN ACCOMPLISHMENT? You either have a short memory, or you're purposefully short-selling Puma just to promote your argument.

Oh well, it's only your loss if you don't watch it. A lot of people were probably rooting for _any_ foreigner and now that they're all out they don't care who wins.
Nope, was rooting for the Koreans. It irritated me how many clueless new posters registered just to claim that it's only the NA scene that's behind the Korean scene and the EU scene is almost equal. Nice to see MC and Puma club them back to their holes.

Being accomplished means a lot more than one win. I'm pretty sure.

Does anyone know when will MC v Puma be played? And it's a bo7 right?
|
Whoa 3-0 3-0? Just when you think the foreign scene is slowly starting to catch up (Killer out in the group stages, Nada losing early at Assembly) the heavy hitters come and throw their weight around.
