Blizz's choice in this, is just going to widen the gap between the skill of pro-players in EU/NA and KR.
Ex Zerg learning Terran. A bold move.

That's one of the biggest issues.

snute, Bunny, VortiX and the othere good foreigner are that strong 'cause they have koreans in their servers.

Dividing Korean and foreigner scenes the gap will be bigger and bigger.

Wonder if the global perspective means picking up foreigners or higher level koreans.

So if YoDa and First wont be able to play for SPL, why not keep them for their new "global perspective" as well? While not the best players in the world, I could see either of them do quite well in Korea and weekend tournaments.

Best of luck to them both, hopefully they find a new team soon enough!

but yeah that's still weird

Assuming TCM was willing to maintain their contracts if they stayed in Europe for 2015 and considering how hard competition is in Korea, wouldn't be worth to move to Europe and compete in DHs, IEM, Gfinity, etc and forfeit WCS (perhaps they could play it in 2016)?

anyway ... "Our involvement in the StarCraft scene has also had to change from a European to a more global perspective and we look forward to announcing our continued support of StarCraft very soon." at least this is good news.
The other race is OP

It's a large loss for EU ladder, especially Yoda was very strong over there.

As long as no Team is able to pay the players enough for a worker visa, yes, these are the players left in EU.
