So I guess it did work if that was the goal. Probably both IMO. yea who cares about game quality, so long as the white guy wins sometimes when I say this I don't mean that WCS in itself is horrible, but your statement Kerence is everything i hate for goodness once since 6 years some white guys are winning on a more regular basis and people are losing their mind when white guys winning was forced by blizzard it's really sad it wasn't forced by Blizzard. It's the kespa forced switch that fucked both scenes :x. Which is Blizz fault a bit as well, but region lock didn't change much.
the kespa forced switch is the original sin and korean scene had no chance surviving it.

region lock killed the motivation of a lot of koreans which hurt the skill level of the korean scene

I like that Nerchio is being aggressive in game 3. Went much better for him when he was able to put the pressure on Solar

I think it's more generally for several months, not for this specific tournament. Of course that's going to make a difference.

what killed the motivation of a lot of koreans is that no one was watching them in korea

And then they didn't even get the chance to go outside Korea. I don't think that helped motivation much?

region lock diminishes motivation, lower motivation means lower skill, less exciting games, worse viewership
and korean players can get fans while playing in foreign tournaments,koreans are allowed to watch too, or even if they don't the player can get hyped up cause they just recently won a dreamhack with koreans

There was this game last year in Proleague where Solar took a gold on that one map (was it Expedition Lost?) aggressively against soO. And soO just outmacroed him wiithout a gold.
