I'm generally getting really pissed that people actually defend this farce. The world cup in football don't only got German,Spanish,Brazilian and Argentinian teams do they? We actually got countries in Africa representing Africa
And that's why football is the biggest sport in the world
Seriously the The old BW team liquid legacy is like a cancer to the growth of starcraft 2 as a global esport. Even though you are such a low minority but very loud
also in football there is a league system where nobody cares if ronaldo is born in portugal if he plays in madrid or robben is dutch when he plays in muenchen.
Umm, yes they do. At least in germany there is a rule for not having too many foreigenr players on the team. Afaik its 12 player must be german.

Could not say it better. If you want to watch koreans winning everything you could still watch: WCS KR (GSL) WCS Finals DH IEM
What?
I never even played BW and I'm fine with Koreans winning
The only people who like Koreans are filthy BW elitists those accursed old men holding esports back for the young generations.
Leave the forums immediately, you dirty casual LoL fan. You're hurting SC2 stream stability.
I heard you like Koreans starve you're holding back the globalisation of esports you fuck.

Of course, just like nobody is complaining about Snute now, and no one complained when Naniwa won MLG before Koreans started coming to US tournaments.
good point. stephano should not have played in MLG or NASL

Snute is good example (not the naniwa case though, MLG is just MLG,nothing seems to be related to region)
Neither of those events purported to be regional championships.
Neither of WCS from today since Blizzard changed it that way.

Snute is in ro8 WCS America. Everyone is complaining about the Koreans but not Snute. How is that different from Koreans in WCS EU?

Didn't IPL try the region-lock thing for S1 and failed horribly?
And WCS EU had region lock last season and it was a gigantic success!

Check my post in the day 1 of the r016 WSC NA and you will see I said the exact same thing. That an Australian and a Norwegian and a bunch of Korean is representing NA is a farce. The NA sc2 scene is almost dead atm.

Half of the people in this thread are just upset Stephano lost and are blaming the WCS EU structure for it lol.

It's basically people don't seem to mind when Europeans come over to win tournaments in the USA, but as soon as a Korean does it, and all hell breaks loose

Nah, man, quite the contrary! I've been boycotting Proleague for a few weeks now but I haven't seen an immediate effect yet, esports doesn't seem to be more globalised in my eyes.
Also, as a sign of solidarity with Whiplash and SNM, I've emailed OGN and their sponsors to fire the Korean casters.

I mean I can get why they're complaining, Stephano would have beaten any other EU player in a bo7(probably). So in their eyes their hero was cheated out of a championship by having to play against Mvp.
Mvp is not invincible, MMA, Forgg and any other KR players in EU are not even close to invincible, beat them next time.

So why do they call the guy that won WCS Europe the European champion if it wasn't meant to find the best player(s) from Europe?
It is called Europe, because it is played in Europe.
Uh, no, it isn't.
It isn't played in Europe?
Please continue, you are most entertaining to read together with that Benjamin guy
Yeah, i could have sworn Cologne was in Europe. Must be something with my eyes.
Woosh. My statement was made concerning the title of WCS EU. It is called the European championship because it's supposed to be the champion of European players. No one cares where the people are when they play- look at WCS AM, the first rounds were played online with people literally playing from Korea.
Actually, it is called WCS EU because it determines the champion of the European region by playing out the Ro16 and forward in Europe. It doesn't have anything to do with who lives where or who is a citizen of what country, the only thing that matters is that the players are in Europe for the live rounds. You might want it to be otherwise, but that's not the case.
So Spain is the Austrian, Swiss, South African, Polish and Ukrainian Football champion because they played all the matches of their Euro / World Cup victories there?
The fact that all the games are played in Europe doesn't imply that it makes any sense to declare the winner European champion. WCS Europe champion, sure, but saying that someone is champion of a certain region implies that the participants are from (or has significant ties) to said region. Spending two weeks in Europe hardly makes you European.
(I don't really have any issues with Koreans taking part in WCS EU or AM - except that I am really sad to see so many players give up GSL / OSL - but saying that the winners of WCS EU or AM are the European or American champion strikes me as somewhat ridiculous)
Here are Blizzard's thoughts on the matter. And differentiating "European champion" and "WCS Europe champion" is a matter of semantics - if you win the European section of the series, you're the champion of the European section of the tournament. You're not a European champion, certainly, but you're the champion of the European tournament. One rolls off the tongue, one doesn't. I think that's all there is to the matter.
