That happens naturally when you follow the korean scene closely tbh. Just like you want the korean to lose because you like the foreigner better, there is no difference U disgust me. Koreans aren't even white you can't relate to them. How dare you cheer for them. | ||

No reason to attribute to malice that which can be just aswwell explained by differences in opinion / preference. Not really. Lots of people in this community are malicious and elitist as fuck. The fact that it's reactionary elitism to the people cheering for foreigners doesn't make it any better. On August 04 2017 19:26 The_Red_Viper wrote: What?

I mean, I don't dislike them, but just this attitude of wanting them to win to "prove" that foreigners are bad is so negative. I think there's a certain irony in the fact there's a tinge of elitism wanting to prove it's better (nobody is disputing that), compared to the old days when everybody wanted to cheer on every foreign player to do well as an underdog, and as some kind of support against the Koreans. Irritating. Cause if you watch Korean SC2 for more than 6 years, you actually know where these guys come from and start cheering for them. | ||

Just like you want the korean to lose because you like the foreigner better, there is no difference I like the Korean players and I have those I prefer within it. I just want underdogs that are outside of the system to do well and compete with them - those on our ladders.

Irritating. It was more fun to cheer on foreigner before the region lock. Now it just feel like they get the easier road and the most skilled foreigner (like Neeb) get free money as they don't have to fight against the absolute best at a regular basis. | ||

It took Rogue months of occupying the #1 spot at 7k mmr to win his IEM. | ||
