NASL has already posted how much they paid for the Koreans in season 1 of the NASL. And it's not $3,000+. | ||

If you say all expenses paid, then what if the Koreans all decided to book first class flights, take a limo from the airport to the presidential suite at the hotel they were staying at, maybe eat 5-star restaurant every night. | ||

Anyways, give me your credit card, I want to go buy, a new Televi-... Big Mac. Dw its for ESPORTS. | ||

Obviously NASL doesnt want to lose the Koreans so they would have figured out the cost for reasonable travel to and from Korea and then offered them something around there. It's not that hard to enforce policies you know... like "this hotel" only and etc. | ||

Sucks that they said no because honestly now that some of the best competition isn't there my inclination to watch is even lower than it was last season. Oh well, fingers crossed for this season I guess. Already starting on a bad foot though imo. Slayers actually isn't associated with it, but Boxer isn't coming anyways  | ||

i'm guessing they wanted tickets for extra people like manager or coaches, maybe its hard traveling alone. but still, practically free trip with the chance of winning 40k, i don't know what they're thinking. | ||

This is about one of a few things: 1) Koreans trying to squeeze out NASL so that GSL remains number 1 2) They're pissed off at the EG/PuMa thing and they don't want that to repeat 3) They're pissed off at the hours of play and don't want to go through it again 4) They hate the tournament format for the finals and think its a waste of time There may be other reasons, but those are the ones I can think of. What I don't understand is why they went through the trouble of giving NASL an ultimatum. They clearly had no intention of competing to begin with. NASL has basically agreed to cover all travel costs... | ||

I can see how it's going to hurt NASL if they dont but I dont see how it's going to hurt NASL much if they do. | ||

NASL no more needs to pay for Korean players to participate than GSL needs to pay for any westerners who want to take a crack at code A.

I get a stipend that is more than sufficient to meet all my needs and also protects them from people who are going to try to abuse a blank check. | ||

No words exist for this low, low blow. You can say whatever you want about NASL's format. You may disagree with it, you may hate it, and you may want to see it burn in hell. But the fact is - The Korean teams knew that it would be applied. Now, while the season has started, the Korean teams demand more than was agreed on when they entered the qualifiers. This is a breach of agreement and is everything opposite to the so called 'honourable' Korean culture everyone talks about at all times. Poor performance by the Korean teams, and I hope for them to redeem themselves with regards to this issue, but it'd be hard for them. | ||

You know it's only fine to deposit money for a while if you do not need it right now. All in all it is sad that we won't get to see a lot of the koreans. | ||
