True.
How can you not like MKP/DRG, 2 incredibly good and charismatic players

Yes I'm mad. I could watch MKP vs DRG all day long. They are the highest level TvZ's ever. If MLG was just a Bo500 between DRG and MKP played over 3 days, it would be way way better than any other tournament ever  Sundance needs to make that happen. Bo501 would be better.
with a bo500 we would have a tie and they will need another awesome two days for a bo501

The only word that comes to mind seeing comments like this is "racist". So everyone who watches the Olympics for certain countries is a racist. While I dont agree with the racist comment. How can you even compare those two? At the Olympics its mostly about nations. In Starcraft its purely about the players. At least it should be.

ye... i honstely dont like SaSe at all as a personality and i got fucking angry when stephano baneling busted because he underestimated sase... also socke wouldve been on DRGs spot with socke winning the last map against sase.
sase is simply not able to beat any top tier koreans, thats why i wouldve rather seen stephano -,- now we have alicia as #3 who no1 likes or cares about (i guess) and then an extended series final, so the ranks are pretty much obvious from that point on - because of sase :D still a great run obviously... but not a run i liked to see.
Who the fuck does this guy think he is, SaSe regularly beats top players on the Korean ladder, why would anybody have any reason too not like this guy at all?
Of all the other foreign players that everyone seems too love so much, you hate one of the 2-3 foreign players that can actually compete with the top Koreans?
Some fucking people are just flat out fucking retarded

Foreigner bias is okay. Why can't we just all enjoy the games we want to enjoy without hating on players or on people who don't want to watch every single game of an MLG?
Following live report threads is really not good for me, I get angry at haters too easily....does that make me a hater as well?

I'm a Terran, but I gotta root for my SlayerS team.

Yeah, I know who he is and he was good a long time ago, and now he's good again. In the meantime, everyone else got their faces, and he didn't. Being faceless is not relative. Alicia's been around for a long time with his ups and downs and has established himself as a solid Code A player. Faceless implies that a player has had little to no exposure, and Alicia has had plenty. Sure it's relative. It's relative to the investment of the audience in whatever he's been doing.
I don't really see what you're trying to say and it feels like we're just arguing semantics. If you want to say that Alicia is unpopular relative to MKP or DRG then I certainly agree with that. However, "faceless" seems like an objective term to me. "Faceless" is unknown or very close to unknown. Alicia is certainly not that.

Because he's not tier 1 or 2, so who cares what he does. That having been said, DRG hwaiting  ROFL you gotta be kidding me. Is that the new standard now? you must be famous before winning a championship? Alicia has a great story. It's caster's fault for rooting with Sase and brush Alicia aside, because they like foreigner winning but not Korean.
Alicia was one of the first protosses to pioneer the fast third, zeal charge, super fast upgrades into templar storm, when every other toss was trying to 3gate voidray rush or 5 gate mass zeal/sentry, basically copying MC's timing attack cheese. Only a chobo who doesn't really pay attention to the SC2 scene would say Alicia is some faceless toss. IMO, he's done more for current Protoss metagame than MC has. MC just won more tournies with his all-in sharp timings, which now you see are one trick ponies that don't work once people understand the game better. Whereas Alicia's mass expo, fast upgrade edge, templar play has become the standard for PvT and hence Alicia's monster PvT win ratio.

The only word that comes to mind seeing comments like this is "racist". So everyone who watches the Olympics for certain countries is a racist. Last I checked, there is no country called "Foreign". I think that it's largely considered to be fine to count any non-Korean country as "foreign," for SC/SCII. Of course. I'm simply pointing out why the Olympics analogy is complete nonsense.
