Not sure if this was the best decision by the voters to give an MVP award to someone who's won one game in the entire round. EG-TL was 3-4 in the first round btw. I mean there's guys like Stats, Wooki, Rain, Flash who are way more deserving but didn't get it because they're Korean. I think it would've been better to give ThorZain some kind of special award, like the Nestea award or something like that rather than sullying the MVP

Does Thorzain have blue eyes. I know not every Westerner has blue eyes. It would be funny if he has brown eyes.

One win and 3 loses does not make MVP status. It should have gone to Stats (5-0) or Rain (6-1 and 2-0ace). This reward is of no consequence, and foreigners should be pissed for being looked down upon.

Well done KeSPA, keep on cementing yourself as a joke organization. This is an insult!

How disrespectful would it be if he gave the award back? Surely Thorazine feels just a little bit patronized for only winning one game as a foreigner.

What a joke, I love Thorzain and all, but totally undeserved.

Must be pretty awkward for Thorzain himself, I'm sure he knows better than anyone else that he wasn't the most deserving player.

Or maybe he can just laugh at it, I wouldn't know.

It's good for the team. I don't think EG would let him return the award.

I think like Obama (remember, he got the Nobel Peace Prize just after he got elected), he just should accept it and say they'll work hard, etc.

I think it would be rude to reject it.

Plus it said the reporters voted for him, so KeSPA did not directly give him the reward.

A symbolic award for a symbolic achievement.

I don't see a problem here.

Except it's not just a symbolic award.... It's an award that Dozens of other players deserved over him. If they gace him a trophy/award for being the first foreigner to win in PL after how many ever years then cool do that. But giving a rounds MVP award to a guy with 1 win is a fucking joke.

Lol thats pretty terrible. I was thinking it was MVP for foreinger or for EG-TL or something (still wouldn't make sense), but yeah, this is patronising as all hell.
