I look at this as good news.

Eventually the foreigner scene will die off because people will wake up and know the fraud that a lot of the top foreigner players really are. This glass floor will expose them, viewership will drop off and the scene will die .

Eventually Starcarft will return to its native home which is Korea. The fact is the real players are all based there. Its the most skillful and competitive environment.

As long as the events in Korea arnt firewalled off i will be happy

Yet at the same time, barely anyone here (Netherlands) watches foreign soccer clubs regularly (maybe for example the final match of the champions league, but not regularly), while many watch the 'inferior' Dutch clubs. And even their local club, despite it being absolute crap compared to what the national clubs show.

So while you have zero motivation to look at this, and thats fine, many others will be more interested in it than just another version of the GSL: If they want to see the GSL, they look at the GSL. Personally I do feel if this is actually true, it would be going too far. But preventing the European/American WCS from being just another Korean affair is good imo.

But the worst thing for Starcraft as a played game.

Football is a "Tribal" sport. 95% people support their hometown club. This support is passed on from Parent to Child. You are basically indoctrinated into supporting them

I support Newcastle United(my hometown club). They have been shit for the last 10+ years yet i still watch them, and i have no choice in the matter. I dont watch any other english team apart from them.

If i want to watch a high quality game i tune into Barca\Real\ Byern etc In order to appreciate the game for its skill & technical ability

If you read the whole article, it also mentions that Take refused to kick out Koreans from HSC and thus he dropped from giving WCS points. Which in my opinion increases the legitimacy of the information, because afaik HSC was supposed to give points and then it suddenly changed and this would be a plausible explanation.

In league of legends Korea is by far the best nation, but they only get 3/16 spot . 8/16 is OK. Korea may be strong contry, but just a small Asia country.
