Yes, the zero meridian runs a couple dozen kilometers west of the venue

it just has a bitter taste that region-locked WCS has Polt vs. hydra in the finals. I mean, I can live with Polt, he's in the US since such a long time. but hydra?


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.

In every esports game the popularity of the game being played directly relates to the interest of the professional scene..

totalbiscuit tried to make a foreigner championship with shoutcraft and afterward he came out and said the money and viewership didn't make it viable. the "foreigners competing for a foreign championship = viewers" argument is literally based on nothing. it's a hallucination that comes from foreigner fanboys because they don't want to accept that korean starcraft is more popular and better to watch


Yes I know. I was instinctively reacting to that general opinion. If anything, more Koreans increases viewership,

More precisely, good Koreans increase viewership.

Hydra wants a taste of getting knocked out by Classic? Should've stayed on CJ then, Classic won't make Blizzcon at this rate <.<
