I'm not sure that's so good for the scene... I don't think 1 foreigner vs. no foreigners will really kill the scene or anything. yeah how many people still remember there was a foreigner in this tournament?

If Naniwa was even close to the level of Dear he would have had no issues in WCS EU and at the very least made it to WCS season 3 finals and not be at home hoping these players lose so he can make it to blizzcon. He plays in the easiest region if he can't make it that's on him Why do you keep ignoring the fact that Naniwa smashed Dear at MLG Spring? Jet lag /s because naniwa lives in the US? :o No, because Naniwa was at much larger amount of MLGs. Unlike Dear.
Did Dear say he lost because of jet lag or are we playing guessing games?

But it would be apparently be worse to have him at Blizzcon? Not saying you said it, but I somehow interpreted it that way you're not watching storylines ? It just adds to the hype of the matches. Not to mention having at least one person competing who doesn't need a translator to speak to the interviewers and audience would be nice. You're welcome to your own opinion but you might want to realize that there's people out there that actually want NaNiwa to go to blizzcon. I like Dear I hope he makes it, but I'd like to see a foreigner in the top16 as well. Polt and MC both don't need a translator. And who cares if they do. If they are the best they should be there

in fact you could argue that one foreigner making it and just being washed out in the first round would look even worse on the scene

as expected, 4 out of 5 players from wcs korea advanced to round of 8

No, we're not ready. Body isn't ready yet.

Kind of like this season finals
except Naniwa is much better than Vortix and has a chance to win a round at Blizzcon, well maybe, it depends on who he faces. if he comes in with 15th seed he might hit jaedong in round 1.

Jet lag is often know to cause you to lose to your opponent scouting what you're doing and countering it.

I'm not sure that's so good for the scene... I don't think 1 foreigner vs. no foreigners will really kill the scene or anything. I'd say the psychological and viewership impact is a big one but hey, what do I know.
