There are American only (or mostly) online cups all the time being streamed. There's plenty of opportunity to see Americans compete. Just not at the top level. Why? Because they aren't as good. It's the bitter truth of it. It boggles my mind. People say they want to watch more Americans play and then when they do every LR thread is filled with complaints at how low the skill level in the game is. No shit! | ||

No shit! yeah, people want to see Korean skill with American faces. Too bad that just isn't possible right now. Plus, when there are NA only tournaments, the LR threads are 10 pages long (if they even exist)... People just like to bitch about the lack of foreigners, but when they get the chance to see it, they don't even tune in. | ||

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 anyone wanted pure Koreans in WCS AM then they could just increase GSL size you know? | ||
