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

I have nerd dread that region-locking is going to actually be a Thing, and while I get both sides of it (arguably better for entertainment value for foreign tourneys, but just as arguably bad for competition in general, blah blah), it just feels really sort of lame and sad. I'm tired of foreigners implicitly throwing in the towel. 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.
