Seems like Rain didn´t want to go to MLG. That's some quality tabloid logic right there. Isn´t it because of the KesPa deal that Rain competes at MLG in the first place? Why doesn´t it make sense? Only speculation on my part, anyway, since these translations are never really 100%. Just because he's sad about having to forfeit GSL doesn't mean he didn't want to come to MLG. Maybe, maybe not, we don´t really know. The way he was translated sounded like he didn´t want to come to MLG at first, because he knew he would lose his GSL spot. But now, after he came this far, he feels like it was worth it.

No, there's one of you every LR thread when this occurs.

"Rooting for your own country in the World Cup is racist, you should only care about seeing the best games possible." People like people they have things in common with/can relate to, this isn't a new concept.
Hence why I tend to root for Protoss (mostly), or players who are emotional and expressive...not a lot of Koreans are, but I gravitate towards the handful that are. (Hero and MKP being two notable examples.)

This is what happens when you try to "fix" double elimination brackets. It can't be done. It should really just be straight, standard double elim for the entire tournament, until the finals, in which the winner gets a free game towards the best of 7. Instead, we have a situation in the semis where a player could have lost *twice* already, yet still eliminate an undefeated player in a single, standard best of 7. Come on.
I know right, MLG really tries to makes things more complicated than they need to be. I mean, why not just make it straight up double eliminations with the person coming from the winner's bracket having a 2 game advantage in a BO7? No need for any of this extended series crap and convoluted brackets.

Maybe Beckham? Washed up and overrated really. Why do you think he plays in the US now?

Would you? Such ridiculous insinuations. You don't like dimaga and white-ra? The hell is wrong with you.
:x white-ra looks like that dude in tarkovskijs stalker and hes supernice. How could I ever hate on him, even sarcastically? 
Imagine an all french mlg though. So many rapejokes

I'm actually more interested now that it's all Koreans. Same. The weak have been culled. Now it's time for the REAL contenders to face off. Pretty much htise Skill & better quality games>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 'Relating to the players'. Which I don;t understand tbh. With translators at every event and some Koreans speaking english and interacting with the scene and showing more and more personality. I don;t get why people can relate to Naniwa but not to Koreans? I mean I have my favorite players as well, and it pains me to see Polt eliminated so close to the real money rounds. But I just don't understand this "If my guys are out I'm not watching anymore" mentality. It's poor sportsmanship. I love the players, but I love the game way more. It's the same in any sport. I'll always cheer for the Lakers, but I'm going to watch the playoffs regardless of who's playing.
At what point has the viewer ANY responsibility to show good sportsmanship? If you don't want to watch people playing whom you can't relate to then don't :o
Aer you watching every game in the NBA because you want to be showing good sportsmanship and support the sport?

Oh but this is e-sports, and this thread is proving you very wrong. Comments in LR threads represent the e-Sports community as a whole! One guy calling people who prefer foreigners nazis represents the community as a whole?
Seriously, I don't know if you've ever followed a sport out of e-sports, but if you did you'd understand why people feel as they do.
