Well, in the 3 seasons of WCS AM in 2013, only 1 North American player made it to a RO8 - Scarlett. So, hard to compare. | ||

The 8 Koreans that will be moving on are all significantly superior players than the foreign players that aren't. Can't understand why people are upset about this. | ||

If foreigners eliminated Koreans then it would be "good" for WCS NA cause it signifies there isn't total Korean domination in a North American region. If it's Koreans eliminating Koreans it means there isn't a change in the trend. | ||

It kinda kills the whole 'foreigner underdogs' storyline. And eliminates many players that people would root for. | ||

unless the tournament is 100% restricted to americans only nothing will ever solve the "problem" of korean dominance, this is something we all should have known for a long time by now. koreans will still just beat the americans whether it's in the ro32 or the ro4 or whatever and people will still complain there's no magic inbetween way to set up a tournament so lesser players beat better ones | ||
