A scene has to start somewhere and if there are enough players in that scene willing to compete and motivated to get better than the whole scene will get better in the long run. Korea got to where it's at right now because some guys started it, not because some aliens dropped there training them. You will always have better and worse players in a scene and as long as the worse players are motivated to catch up the whole scene will get better. Koreans are the fastest at improving, but catching up is definitely a lot easier when somebody can show you how to play.
All of this awareness and intelligence from the community that pressured Blizzard into region locking because Check and Pigbaby weren't relatable, I'm impressed.

Dude this is a shitposter power rank. We have to promote ourselves by posting the suggestions in this thread instead of PMing them. Cricketer12 is noteworthy, though his form has declined a lot since Blizzcon 2014.

You don't let phelps swim vs 6 year old children and expect from them to be motivated to beat him. You let them compete vs each other where the competition is actually fair.
Yes i compared foreigners to 6 year olds

Phelps is never going to come here. He still wins against the best, he doesn't need to go to the 6-year-olds pool.

The real problem for the foreign scene is that they don't have a weekly league to play in and to practice for constantly.
That's the main issue here. Well, they had it last year... Not enough foreign champions I heard.
I don't remember a weekly league for foreigners to compete in. Like proleague

Very few people can have 27k posts and genuinely say "I don't shitpost."
