Those Koreans like MMA und jjakji, they sacrificed their whole future for this game. It's their life unlike westerners who go to school or attend university. It's pretty obvious that someone who spends 24/7 on SC2 beats someone with only half their dedication Dislike korean domination? Why? They have been producing the best players for 15 years, it's not like any surprise or so that even the exiled, bad, non-GSL-qualified koreans are better than foreigners Because one sided domination is boring. In any sport, mind you. Doesnt have anything to do with racism.
Question to anyone really. But in BW, did the sport become more popular during the Bonjwa days of Savior or not?
His comment got my wondering.

I just want to see the best players and the best Starcraft. This foreigner vs Korean etc is nice for the hype but ultimately, the game is about a single player vs a single player. Their country of origin is irrelevant, IMO; only the quality of their play matters.

And every mistake Korean makes is a huge/unforgivable blunder while anything foreigner does is the most genius move ever that is going to revolutionize the game.
I still maintain that the internet drama fiends aren't even fans to begin with.

You seem to pretend that everyone is of your opinion when that is objectively not true.

It's not one sided because it's not just one player winning - it's several, hard-working individuals who happen to hail from the same nation. Splitting the scene into us and them is, if not racist, at least overly patriotic. Why should I root for a "foreign" douchebag like Naniwa over a korean sweetheart like Stardust? Because "koreans win too much"? I say Stardust isn't winning enough. And then I root for him. Simple as that.

It was going up in those days, but sAviOr's case was special, since prior to him it was mostly Terran domination at the top, and he just rose as a god-tier Terran slayer apart from being probably the 2nd best player in the game's history overall.

"Because one sided domination is boring."
Not "Because I think one sided domination is boring."
Anything else?
And no, I personally don't think it's boring.

Stories, casters, production, hype, storylines, legacies, etc. That's all nice, but Godly games trump all of that every time. There's a reason Jjakji vs Leenock is still the best GSL finals of all time despite having close to the worst storyline of all time.

upsets are fun to watch sometimes,
also everyone loves a cinderella story
when the underdog beats the heavy favorite, usually this gets alots of viewers
Koreans being the heavy favorites, and foreigners usually the underdog...
