Now Adebisi and Huk want confirmation from Blizzard that Korea isn't included in Southeast Asia.

If I was a Blizzard representative, I would just send them a world map.

I am honestly still in disbelief that they have never identified South Korea on a map, especially for someone who has lived there

As one of the biggest critics of not region-locking previously, I'm very happy with these changes. I'm actually surprised (almost shocked) at how in-line most of these changes are with what I envisioned.

However, I'm lazy regarding one thing here:

Has anyone figured out yet how many Koreans could potentially be grandfathered into WCS 2014 in Europe and America? I'd like to know the numbers.

The funniest part is, Huk's vlog was all about how Europe was fine and AM was still fucked... but if he was right about Korea and SEA, that would mean koreans would have four shots at AM... Exactly the same number Europe has.

So... Yeah?

SCST: it isn't really close to what you preached, though (which is a good thing).

Thank you. And that's it? Not bad at all . . . whatever happened to Nestea and MVP, by the way?

Uh . . . what? I didn't preach anything. Just some form of region lock. Sure you have the right guy?

Grandfathered in the large up/down Challenger league I guess?

Aren't the koreans that went through challenger last season eligible for a spot in the 24vs24 battle for the other Premier spots?

Yeah I guess I was asking about challenger/premier league combined regarding the numbers of Koreans grandfathered in.

Edit: I shouldn't be so lazy. I'll just go count them myself.
