China has tremendous infrastructure for e-sport, just not focused on SC2. They have all the infrastructure that Korea has, but focused on WC3, Dota1/2 and LoL | ||

The fact that there's 150k viewers on the Taiwanese LoL stream and 50k on the Chinese right now justifies this  They've actually passed half a million btw combined, I could only dream if a Dreamhack event could reach that. | ||

Korea got a huge head start in SC2, so not surprising that China focused on other games. Arcade fighting games is dominated by Japan/US. Shooters by EU. | ||

Meh, Korea is starting to get a foot in the door when it comes to fighting games. The only one that is really dominated by US is UMvC3. | ||

I really hope the few terrans that are qualified for WCS Finals don't get eliminated early on, or it's gonna be a boring tournament for me  TvPs and TvZs are the most fun matchups imo.That said, I'm really hoping for a herO vs HerO WB finals just for the sake of humor | ||
