How did OGN/KeSPA throw the foreign scene under the bus, exactly?

That pro license could could just be getting in to Code A. SC:BW licenses were handed out via their Courage Cups, and the reason that so many foreigner didn't get those passes is the same reason that many foreigner are unable to make it through the qualifier cups. I kind of doubt that OGN wouldn't try to tap into the international scene because they would be blind to not notice how big the scene is outside of Korea.

This is my question also,

Pj, Lx, Legionnaire, Draco, Rekrul, IdrA, NonY, Ret.

To name the few.

They didn't place the foreigners under the bus. The foreigners gave their progaming dreams up because the idea was that the foreigners cannot beat robots.

so so so so so true. sc2 really needs to up the notch on the skill ceiling or it wont last. people will figure it out way too quick and itll get stale (getting stale right now with just wings of lib).

i got faith that if mike just listens to the pro bw players they can really spice things up for hots and void.

Wait.... what? Another GSL? Another IPL? Aren't there already a lot of "Starcraft 2 Pro leagues"??? It sounds awesome but why are they making this sound like something revolutionary and a first, because it sure doesn't seem like it. I can't stand when Blizzard is so unspecific about announcements like this. Blizzard is so unspecific in general, like not having the pricing for the WoW annual pass anywhere in the FAQ. That was just ridiculous. I had to learn from a friend who bought it that it's the same flat rate of $15 a month because Blizzard didn't have that information anywhere until you buy it!

Point is, Blizzard please clear your crap up and be more specific. Please?
