The money made to skill ratio in korea is so much lower, they need more tournaments. Your argument would be made more powerful if not for the large number of Koreans that participate in foreign tournaments. A Korean won 4 of the 5 MLG events they were invited to and came in second at Orlando. A Korean had a chance to win the main IPL3 event (but lost a ZvZ to Stephano). Won Blizzcon in '10 and '11. Won Dreamhack Winter '11. Won BOTH seasons of NASL. Won WCG '11. If Koreans weren't winning (and getting in the money, as to use a poker phrase) I could see that. As is, sorry. If a middling Korean wants more money they have various options in other teams that can put more money into their players. | ||

On top of that there are plenty of non-region locked tournaments that are purely online that Koreans can play in. Top that off with Korean Invites to a lot of tournaments and you have quite a few opportunities. | ||

Our partnership with eSahara is more like what we had with sk-gaming during 2011. Although our business partnership did end a way I did not want it to towards the end with sk-gaming | ||
