Er, no? This is so far off the mark it's unbelievable. If someone ran a tournament with Jinro, Huk, Naniwa, Idra, Mana, Nerchio, Stephano, Ret, White-Ra, Demuslim, Socke, Thorzain, Sen, Strelok, qxc and TLO as the lineup, it'd be bad because there's no Clide in it? Come on now. Hell, replace TLO with MVP in that list and the tournament instantly becomes much less interesting.

No, I agree with him. However, who knows where the majority lies, but for me I only watch foreign tournaments if koreans are in it because it just makes it so much more interesting to watch.
