I'm usually one of the more positive people, but somehow I feel like this will be a big letdown relative to the hype. Not very excited at all.

Hope I'm wrong.

If there are foreign pros who can't get motivated because the Korean competition is stiff and they're stealing all the prize pools in 'our' tournaments, I'm not interested in those pros. I want the ones that are determined to get better & be competitive against the best. Does US become the 'It's Okay American Pros Everybody Gets Medals Now' circuit? I have my pet favorites I'm dying to see on the mainstage more but if they're just beating up on each other in the kiddie pool...no thanks.

Really hoping this turns out to be a figment of community imagination but my gut is telling meit's coming and I'm not buying one inch of it from those shrugging their shoulders saying hey it's just the way of the future. That's a crappy future for a competitive scene. CatZ posterchilding it on SotG was appropriate in all the ways I'm surprised this community is more vehemently scared about.


Couldn't agree with this more. If it is region locking, i just wont watch anything but the korean scene, because as much as i love some euro/american players and want them to do well, it will simply disgust me to watch them only start winning because everyone decided that they weren't capable of competing with koreans and threw in the towel. I believe that tournament viewership would go down across the board is region locking is the case.

Agreed. I would probably immediately unsubscribe from MLG if that is the case. Money talks.

Do the TL staff really not know? I can't see how it hasn't leaked around already since the teams were already told.

bring the koreans to weekend events , make an ongoing league on NA and EU with locals that requires actually living there.

I for once would watch a league like this in EU; would be interesting to see who is the best EU player in some kind of long tournament format.
