You'd still have the same outcome in the finals they would just have an easier route there. thats not a mentality, thats just how the world works otherwise how come people watch their local sport teams instead of watching the Heats, Giants. Barca or what ever top team thats out there. The level of play is not that important. | ||

Having regional qualifiers which draw a certain amount of players or teams from each region for a tournament is a norm in modern day international competition. For example, UEFA champions league and FIFA world cup. | ||

High level play at these tournaments is the most important thing. | ||

I wish they'd do something about the absurdly huge amount of koreans. Like maybe a limit of x players from NA, EU and Asia each. Not trying to be racist, but spectator-wise, it isn't a good thing to have. Naniwa was really lucky. He beat 2 foreigners, then won against Flash but lost to him in the extended series the next match, then lost to the next Korean. Essentially he only really beat 2 foreigners, and placed 9th due to bracket luck and seeding. | ||

For example, UEFA champions league and FIFA world cup. But you don't expect those local teams to get far. It's like saying Italy, Brazil, Argentina, Germany, France and Brazil should be banned from time to time of the football worldcup so we can watch other teams reaching the top. The only real problem is how this tournaments don't offer coverage or allow for us to watch ANY match going on. For example many people wanted to see Polt, other Idra, etc etc... so you could really follow the storyline you want to if you really don't want to have a more streamlined experience (MLG was focused on Flash - Rain, even if they weren't the champions). | ||

I don't get this quota shit. "foreigners" need to work harder or they will be left behind. What do you want for them? autobuild workers? half the energy cost of scan? get better or die trying. | ||
