I wouldn't call it absurd. It's a sign of desperation. Imo when BoxeR entered SC2 and created SlayerS he had idea of team, that is more then a team, a family, and SlayerS were known for this family atmosphere. As time went by many players left SlayerS for foreign teams just for money Some exits were clean, some not. I think BoxeR realized that for players family team < money, and he left, back to old school Korean teams. ROOT is a good example of team being more then just a lineup of people, who still managed to hold on together. I just value different things I guess so... | ||

Really ? Would you hire a player that can't speak english ? Probably not. It's really beyond me how the scene keeps providing korean players with accommodations just because they are koreans and can't to speak english - which is hilarious when they live in one of the best educational sytem in the world. Did koreans help the foreign BW scene ? Yeah ... | ||

Did koreans help the foreign BW scene ? Yeah ... You're kidding, right? You honestly think a single team on this planet would refuse to pick up players from the biggest pool of amazing talent in the world for the sake of not wanting to have a translator on call? There are valid reasons for foreign teams not picking up Korean players, but I don't think language barrier is a very convincing one. | ||

Casters aren't suppose to show bias He showed very little bias during the games he cast of his during |MLG Raleigh when he bankrolled his attendance. You seem to be forgetting other casters associations with teams. Dignitas Apollo EG incontrol Root Axeltoss Root Rotterdam mouz Kaelaris Ironically, I would say the most biased caster is mrbitter and he has zero affiliations with any team. He is a good caster but when he casts foreign players against koreans he is quite clearly sad when they lose, especially zerg players like Idra (mrbitter plays zerg). | ||
