No Koreans would be a shame. I don't wanna watch some cheesy or turtle games by NA players. Seriously TvT by non Koreans is just painful to wait for the result. PvZ is a whining party whether infestor OP or Deathballs OP.


I feel like if we keep inviting Koreans to every stinking tournament it will negate player growth in the foreign scene. Why will players want to emerge only to see Koreans dominate EVERY SINGLE TOURNAMENT ACROSS THE ENTIRE GLOBE?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

How about if you don't invite the Koreans to these events then the level of play will stay low as it is compared to the Korean skill levels.

That way the Korean scene will actually grow bigger than it already is.
Inviting the Korean players will force foreigners having to adjust to the Korean play style and additionally work as hard or harder than the Koreans to increase their skill level to compete.

I don't want foreigners to just sit back win some money and fall behind the Koreans. It's already big as it is now and continues to grow bigger every day. We need the foreigners to improve and the only way I see it is by actually playing the Koreans regularly and working as hard as the Koreans are doing.

I agree, I'm impressed by late season 2 and 3. I'm excited for IPL and I hope it's successful.

For an online tournament, I understand the reasoning of not inviting Koreans. I'd imagine it would be a nightmare trying to schedule everyone to play their matches and other reasons.

Glad to see the inclusion of Koreans in at a live event. Here's hoping to the growth of E-Sports in America.
I love you sarge.... AHHHH
