There are a number of us who thought of Brood War as the game that Koreans played, with Counterstrike as the best competitive title. Yeah. CS and Q3 were more like sport to me, until I stumbled on Korean scene. | ||

All players who had at least a bit of success prior to moving to Korea. Being at least decent in the foreigner scene means that those people have a minimum of drive, motivation & self discipline to train. If you need a person to tell you to train - you were the wrong person for the GOM house. | ||

These teams all have Koreans on their teams, and on top of that they have non-Koreans that wants to stay in Korea. And if they get one that's big enough they can even let other players can rent Space there. Personally I'm still waiting for the EG-response to Slayers disbanding. The newsletter hinted at something happening. Sort of a team owned MoW. | ||

When was the last time more than one foreigner used it for like, a week? When was the last time a GOOD foreigner used it? Honestly I can only think of when the FXO team used it like a year and a half ago. I think so too. I don't think it's necessarily a bad sign, I'm guessing foreigners just have better places to stay there now in Korea. It's no big deal. | ||

Hehe, I had to google that word. My point wasn't actually a strawman. I wasn't misinterpreting your opinion, instead I was asking you to develop your idea, which would bring you to the same point where I am. On November 02 2012 13:08 RaiKageRyu wrote: Come on guys... There are practically no foreign players to contest in GSL anyways. It was a home for no one anymore. what about koreans who live in other cities? | ||

They're lazy in LoL too because they stream for entertainment for stream money instead of practicing to get better. That's why all the NA LoL teams got rocked at s2 finals. | ||

Pretty much all of the foreigners that made noise and made it into GSL quickly fizzled out and didn't do much of anything. | ||

I hope all the foreigners who plan on staying in Korea have other ideas for homes lined up, and it sounds like you have some as well | ||
