He's been living in America for 4 months.


I think we can live with 3 Koreans in Ro32 in WCS. That being said, Koreans eligible to play in WCS should have a separate qualifier somehow so the number is always limited to a maximum of 3 in Ro32. Whatever people say, it is clear that this tournament has attracted much more viewers than any WCS event in a long time, but if WCS starts to get flooded with Koreans again, the viewer count will start dropping fast I fear...


People always say that and it never happens at all. There is literally no linear correlation between the # of Koreans and the viewers.

Well unless they literally make the rules "Nobody born in korea" there will be a way for koreans to compete


The thing is: Korean pros are better than the rest of the world. In any other sport, that situation would mean that weaker players would have to play in the hard leagues to be considered good players. But the high-profile teams wouldn't go to the lower leagues.

Imagine Real Madrid playing in your average american soccer league. Yeah, unrealistic. But you actually have american soccer pros in european soccer. Get my point?

Real Madrid already plays in a crap league

ooooohhhhhhhhh

So if Polt doesn't get roached it's a free win. I hope he's careful <.<

Meh each of the Koreans have shown weakness and some of the foreign players could have beaten them if the brackets worked out differently. It's good enough. I'm sure next season we'll also have some more contenders like MLord and even Naniwa if he's back in form.

I'm just annoyed at all the ignorant/semi-racist people on the internet trying insinuate that having Korean's in a tournament leads to lower viewership. Anyone with that opinion should get a lobotomy
