Exactly. Always playing West seems actually closest to "fair", even though Koreans get a slight advantage there. But it may depend on the case.

Should have just follow the rules (NA West). Letting players choose will just complicate things.

Personally I feel like alternating and always starting on West would be the fairest solution in this unfortunate situation.
Just sad we can't see the highest level of SC2 right now even if we live in an era where Foreigner/Korean MUs are actually super hype.

Switching servers sounds good but it still results in both players having rough ping regardless, which will give advantanges to certain playstyles/races. There's literally no way to make it so that at least one player won't have the right to complain

Korean loses: WARGARBLE PING! Foreigner loses: Look, it's a complicated situation and I think everyone's doing as much as they can to make this fair given the difficult circumstances.

Thanks for clearing that up!

He probably has an all in dedicated to the map. It's probably terrible.

Maybe Reynor did as well but I haven't watched those games yet.
INno and TY got double screwed by both ping and staying up 14 hours after the GSL group earlier.

That's if we assume the advantage Koreans get on West equals the advantage Europeans get on Central, which doesn't always seem to be the case, so alternating may not always be the fairest option.

It wouldn't have to be equal numbers of games.
Maybe you'd play 2 games on West for every game on Central, but yeah not the simplest solution.
