Yes and no. I don't care about Korean or foreigner, for the most part I watch because I like Starcraft. I have nothing against foreigners, most of them just can't provide really good games and their fans are extremely annoying.
I am happy as long as Mvp is winning.

Dude, there are always those 10 people getting all pissy about a foreigner doing well, even when they're showing high level entertaining play. Both types are quite ridiculous.

Sase ruined Socke's chance to be #1 in the pools (so top 6), then destroyed the best chance a foreigner had to take this (Stephano). We had a foreigner working for Koreans ^^
J/k, nice run Yeah I'm not a fan of Sase for screwing Socke and Stephano out of a good run . . . I would have been ok if he made Top 3 at least, but losing the way he did in game 3 . . . . such a BS bronze league thing to do base racing against blink stalkers in PVP wtf are you thinking? i cant tell if this guy is serious ofc he is serious... im feeling almost as he does (besides his comment on game 3 pvp... basetrading was ok, but the way and timing he did it was off). im simply not a sase fan, he seems like a rly strange person to me in interviews. Then he wins strange games vs socke, polt and stephano, 3 fan favourites id love to see go ahead just to be beaten by ALICIA, who wouldve lost so hard to stephano i cant even describe it. not gonna watch now. the rankings are clear and i wont stay up 3 hours just to see 2-3 exciting MKP vs DRG maps in which the winner is clear cause of MLG rules and i dont even have someone to rly root for My feelings exactly. Stephano would have facerolled alicia. I really don't care about the MKP DRG match since its extended series win, and Alicia has no chance against MKP..
While I wanted to watch Stephano face MKP again, I don't think it's fair to SaSe that people are dissing him for screwing NA / EU favorites - the guy worked his way up through the entire OB to hit Top 4. Few players - and no EU / NA players - have done that in tournaments this stacked before. Give props to SaSe for his great run.

What is Alicia looking at?
Does he have his monitors above him?

OH GOD.
Wait no his winrate is 55.56%, yo. At least it is NOW.

umm nothing in that guys post was bitter at all. Yours came off like quite the jerk/self righteous post though. If he wants to cheer for foreigners and is less interested after they are out, then what is the problem with that? Do you watch any sports? Do you watch every single game that involves people you are not cheering for? Yah.. thought so.

I am consistently amazed/dismayed by the number of people in this forum who (claim to?) stop watching when the White People are gone. Glory to e-sports! This is the future! Seriously, I agree. It's pretty sad that people care more about foreigners winning than quality of play. True. How can you not like MKP/DRG, 2 incredibly good and charismatic players It's not that, I'm super excited everytime I can see MKP against DRG, but we know Alicia will lose, and the finals starts at 2:0 because of extended series, so it's less exciting sadly.
More exciting because we either see an epic comeback from MKP or we get shown how to play Zerg perfectly by DRG.

wow Alicia held that really well.

He only needed one with that wet fart of an attack. It was almost like it was designed to make MKP over react.

You are looking just at foreign PvT which gets boosted up by facing foreign terrans which are well foreign terrans.

He could have done either. I like the choice of Storm.

It would be the same scenario if there was a Korean white / mixed guy who was a top Starcraft player. I don't think "race" has anything to do with it. People just like to see top players from outside Korea, because they've typically been the underdogs.
It has everything to do with identifying yourself with a player. Why do most people support their local football team or basketball team? Right, it's just how it works.
