if there is a separate foreign league and korean league, and with code a (challenger), does this become like:
major league > minor league > foreigner league ?

since major is dominated by koreans, minor is koreans who cant make it and few foreigners trying to squeeze in, then all foreigners in their own special league.

thats degrading


either that or no more foreign scene aka no more foreign money and we return to a bw situation only this time with lol as the major esport

The more money the better. The end product is way more of eSports. This is sad but true.

I think what we really need is a top Korean's honest opinion about the foreign scene. Having interviews with foreigners is great but they are more liable to be defensive about their own scene.

God forbid anyone should try to help any scene besides Korea.

You know what else is degrading? Foreigners getting crushed every time they play koreans.

That doesn't make sense at all.

GOM bent over time and time again to get foreigners to play in the GSL - they opened the house for them, they gave them seeds from foreign tournaments, and even went so far to give them direct Code S seeds. They were allowed in over Korean players that actually deserved it by qualifying. They wanted foreigners so hard that they tried literally everything to have them compete.



This is so true...I know they wanted to try and dispel lazy rumors and whatnot, but I don' think this video changed my mind really. Khaldor even talking about the GOM house..paid for living and they are watching movies and sitting around? Seriously?? The bottom line is most of the talented foreigners that knew what it meant to be a progamer and actually followed the korean scene are too old and unmotivated. and the ones that are working hard and doing it right are getting results so I really dont even see the problem at this point.

The biggest thing that will help is foreign teams and top players in regions working together and practicing together and motivate each other to adopt serious approaches to starcraft like TLO Mana Sase Naniwa do. And its happening, it just needs patience and not to have 1834343 discussions about how we can get foreigners to beat koreans.


I thought he was talking about koreans in a GOM house vs. koreans in a kespa house, not foreigners.
