Truer words have rarely been spoken I played in about 50 of them. I've played hyun, polt, and tails more than most korean pro's have. I even cheesed polt out once. Greatest moment of my life. | ||

While I agree that the fast majority of players in the top2 are Koreans, I just want to point out that there are also more EU players in it than NA players, despite the NA cup starting at around midnight here. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/ZOTAC_Cup/NA_Cups So whatever hinders NA players to compete in this cup, it doesn't seem to hinder EU players nearly as much to compete at a worse time. Also I seriously doubt that anybody in Europe participates in these cups mainly for the money. With so many skilled players and bo3 single elimination format, so many random things can happen that the chance of winning the cup isn't very high, even if you're say Nerchio. | ||

Then one occurs and there's drop outs, no shows, forfeits, people who apparently can't remember that they've scheduled other shit since months before on that particular date. NA in general just seems to have a pretty poor attitude about the whole "professional" part of professional gamer. A brief video to sum up the na scene to an outsider + Show Spoiler + | ||
