Wow, that was a good laugh to start my day.

In general, I think the image of gamers will improve with time as technology as a whole becomes more integrated in our lives. In the short term, some more focused marketing couldn't hurt though.

Nada is #35, that poll is invalid.

And BoxeR is behind White-Ra...

I love White-Ra, but he's kinda goofy looking <3

You cant just magically wave a wand and make western progamers buff and stylish. It has to be something they want to do. Like working out...korean progaming houses have work-out schedules. Western progamers are spread out among tens of countries.

If you don't already think western progamers are sexy then you just have bad taste.

This wont happen anytime soon especially because all of the western "pro gamers" are seemingly completely deluded and think they are really handsome and charming, and also there are so little female fans to help say otherwise.

The thing I dislike about western gamers however is that most of them act like spoiled children, so I wouldn't even care if they did look after themselves...

Korean bw pro gaming had a really good image though, I still like watching bw to see all the awesome teams/players!

The reason korea is like that is because they are extremely focused on looks. Saying that most foreign pros are unhealthy seems like bs as most of them look like your average 20-25 year old. Some are overweight but it's not a majority.


Admittedly some are very underweight though, which is really bad too, but a lot of the Korean players are like that. I'm a little confused too because you're saying that Korea is more focused on looks, but really the west is extremely focused on looks as well. Hence threads like this.


Western countries are no where near as focused on appearance as Korea is. Everyone will openly judge you for your "sense of style" in Korea, especially among young people's social groups.
