Obligatory public note for all large tournament threads: The following is a list of behaviors that will get immediate bans: 1. Whining about stream 2. Bashing other games 3. Flaming other users 4. Bashing players 5. Complaining about imbalance. It is in no way complete. Keep in mind that there's a difference between pointing out that the SC2 and CoD streams were switched and whining about it (same thing on pointing out/asking about stream lag and whining about it, etc.). Also, just because you post something and aren't immediately banned for it doesn't mean you won't get caught. We'll be going through this thread very carefully. That being said, enjoy today's games!

Why? Because their skin is white? Why do people from the US somehow lump themselves together with people from the Ukraine and Sweden? With Chinese players and Latin American players? Just makes no sense. "Korean" esports are now becoming esports throughout the world with their participation in foreign tournaments and foreign participation in their tournaments, this isn't Brood War. Tons of Koreans are joining foreigner teams and there are tons of mergers going on. So silly, I really can't think of anything other than skin color that makes Korea different. People love it when good Swedes dominate but if it's Koreans, oh no this tournament is such a boring roflstomp. Totally agree with this, although I wouldn't have put it as well as you did. Don't get all the anti-Korean sentiment when they play so much better than everyone else. I seriously don't get why people act like they don't understand the disappointment when the korean dominate. It's not political or stupid, just natural and part of all sports. It's especially dumb to be bothered when all it'll take is for one main stage foreigner win and eveyone will be happy. Unfortunately, we haven't gotten one at an MLG since idrA vs MC. I'd agree that it wasn't stupid if Korea was playing as a team united against everyone else. Then it'd be some sort of Yankees scenario where one team was too stacked. That's not how it is at all though. I have certain Koreans that I cheer for and some that I don't like at all just like I have certain white dudes that I cheer for and some that I hate. Grouping up all the Korean players and collectively hating them seems really stupid to me given that this isn't a team game, it's 1 vs 1. As an aside, MLG has been like 10x better for me since they started the GSL exchange program and Koreans started coming over. I was so impressed by it that I bought a gold membership after Columbus which I couldn't even fathom doing after Dallas. I suspect that for everyone who is emotionally hurt when their favorite white dude loses to a Korean there is someone else who is tuning in (or better yet, buying an HD pass) because of the elevated level of competition. | ||

Seems Dig is top. EG is 2-0 over Liquid in matches, with only Sheth having won any games for them (2-0 vs moonan). Root, FXO, and RGN, only have one player reporting for them each, but I included them for fairness sake. Root? Did you mean complexity or...? | ||

There's just no one to root for, because no one seems to have a chance. Maybe root for good player then? And not base it on race? Oh cut the political correctness BS. Like I've already said, it's not a race issue. It's how a western tournament to find the best player becomes predictable and to a degree pointless when the only big question is which korean will take home the gold. if we eliminate koreans won't we know that only a select few foreigners will take it? when you are looking for the best players, you are always going to have the same set of names at the top. | ||
