You cannot stay it's totally free of access if you consider that it can cost more than 1k$ depending from where you live. Cost is irrelevant.You can participate no matter where you live,there are no restrictions.If you can't go that's your problem. If Koreans want to,they should host a tournament in Korea,open to everybody in other regions and i'm sure Blizz will give them the same amount of wcs points as DH/IEM. | ||

Yep I agree, but giving WCS points for Proleague is no solution imo. Restrict WCS points to WCS/GSL. I dislike how IEM/DH etc. have become qualifiers for Blizzcon anyway, they have their own championships. The other solution would be more open tournaments on Korean soil, but that's unrealistic. There will at least be the one Kespa tournament later this year with the top2 from each region plus Proleague and open qualifiers I think.

Code S: 1st - 2500 2nd - 1500 3-4 - 1000 4-8 - 750 9-12 - 500 13-16 - 400 17-24 - 300 25-32 - 200 Code A 25-48: 100 That way those who play in the GSL benefit which is mostly Kespa players. | ||

KeSPA players shouldn't get sympathy points because they don't feel like playing in singles tournaments. Um your statement makes no sense whatsoever. Why would the players that you mentioned NOT want to play in singles tournaments? LOL... It's advantageous to them because they're better than most of their competition = free money and fame. It's that they CAN'T compete due to tight rules with the team and proleague. Why do you think players like innovation left a korean team? It's to be able to play more singles tournaments. | ||

This way we can basically lock down 3 spots for blizzcon for each GSL winners. Not the best option imo | ||

Rewriting history is a cool hobby tho. | ||

Teamleauges are different. Stop mixing them with single performances. (Can I remind you Sirs how big the uproar was when it was revealed that WCS KR/EU/NA had different group-formats etc.) | ||

Also, so, SO many people who do good in PL fail hilariously in individual leagues and vice versa, it just doesn't make sense even when you don't include the outside-of-the-game politics. | ||

There are so many (offline!!!) PL matches, it is almost impossible for the good players to visit all the events in Europe etc. | ||

Honestly I give no fuck about nationality of a player, I want to watch the best. | ||

There will be a taiwan tournament with wcs points, too, and a good prize money. Really, if kespa doesn't bother to play in this one, they really don't care A flight from korea to taiwan can't be that expensive Of course, there's also the kespa tounament they will do later on | ||
