What the hell is wrong with you guys? Still living in the previous era or what??

When you watched WCS Austin or Jonkchoping werent you proud of foreiners and didnt u wonder how well would these guys do against koreans?

Major, Scarlet, Elazer... Neeb, Nerchio, Serral.. their skill level, mechanics and the understanding of SC2 is very very good! They dont make many mistakes like foreiners used to do.. Why cant they compete with the best all of the sudden?? SC2 is not a hobby for them anymore but the real job to get money from.

And Koreans.. are just Koreans lol. They are humans just like everybody else. They were and still are just as good as before. They take esport very serioously just like foreiners these days.

Anyhow, Im soooooooo happy that 5 foreigners made it to GSL S. Im pretty sure more would if they decided to play the qualifariers. Is there anyone who says that Serral, Kelazhur, Nerchio, Snute is not GSL code S progamer??


They are bad ( wcs backtoback champion = codeA player ) and they deprive ro32 players of what it comes to them, their only source of income. So, they have to retire to make a living, just because scarlett and his troop wanted to get 2-0ed by INnoVation.

But ye, we are wrong.


Wasnt the only source of income for foreigners the tournamets dominated by Koreans few years ago? wasnt it the main reason for foreiners that they took SC2 and e-sport as a hobby??
how can u live and provide for yourself (dont mind your familly) if all of the money Koreans grabbed because they had estabished team houses and so on and so forth?


So, why can they qualify in code S then ?


Cant Koreans play in WCS? I remember Polt and Hydra playing WCS last year.. Hell even TRUE won one of the DreamHacks.. in Montreal if think.. against Polt.. and guess what.. they are both Koreans
TRUE is rank 8 in current WCS with 1230 points..


TRUE had to wait 9 month to get a visa etc, when drogo/elazer etc just booked a flight

Cant wait to see Maru drop a manner CC against noregret, he deserves it


Maru only does that to someone who offended him personally.

Myungsik mocked Maru's teammate Rogue before in team league, so Maru revenged for his teammate with mules.

And Maru's mule to Nerchio in Kespa cup. I think Maru probably misunderstood Nerchio's interview about himself. (He probably thought Nerchio BMed him through interview)

If those foreigners are good as you say, why the hell Region lock still exists ? Answer me !


For how long there was no Region lock?? Blizzard wants to see competition between everybody not only KR vs KR. For that you gotta pump some money just to make ppl want to play sc2 and become progamers.

People complain that GSL is the only source of money for progamers from korea and now foreigners advancing to GSL take that opportunity from real sc2 korean progamers... LOOL just LOL. Couple years ago it was complate opposite but i guess u guys already forgot about it.


Wow, for GSL you said about the best players should advance, and for WCS you said Blizzard doesnt want to see all Korean vs Korean. What an argument ! So tell me what the hell you are considering ? Skill level or nationality ?


Region lock exists because koreans were winning everything ... yes they were the best and stuff but with time its get boring.. or it only interests group of ppl from that region/country. Blizzard wanted to change things a bit..

Anyhow, why do you even complain???? if Koreans are the best of the best.. then why they are loosing to foreigners..

At this point I won't blame Hot6 if they decide to terminate their sponsorship of the GSL. The Korean professional scene simply lacks the number of skilled players necessary to populate it.

Not to mention there's little financial point in advertising an exclusively-Korean energy drink to foreign audiences.

HSC isn't part of WCS. Take refused to do it because if he wanted to get the Blizzard cash he'd have to have held a WCS Circuit event, which bans Koreans that don't wait 9 months for a visa.

HSC either :
- Does not give WCS point (therefore isn't under WCS rules, HSC XIV).
- Or when it did (HSC XIII), it only had TRUE, who has a visa.

But as Korean you dont just have to have a tourist visa, but :

Residency requirements stay the same

The residency requirements for WCS Circuit remain the same as last year. Players will need proof of citizenship, permanent residency, or an appropriate visa in order to compete and earn points in the WCS Circuit. A minimum number of ladder games in the home region will also be required. The full details will be forthcoming in the WCS 2017 Rules. And on the WCS Korea side, any player can compete.

We complain because the lower-tier koreans (who aren't the best of the best) get prevented from receiving their paychecks killing any hope of new young players breaking into the scene just so that foreigners (who already get enough money through WCS) have a nice experience.

I am fascinated by the internet's ability to be upset no matter what. The region lock is stupid, so much is true, but arguing "there is region lock in wcs so there should be one in gsl" is many levels of stupidity above it. You should be happy that there is a place without the idiotic rules instead of trying to have them everywhere for "fairness".

What the hell is wrong with you guys? Still living in the previous era or what??

When you watched WCS Austin or Jonkchoping werent you proud of foreiners and didnt u wonder how well would these guys do against koreans?

Major, Scarlet, Elazer... Neeb, Nerchio, Serral.. their skill level, mechanics and the understanding of SC2 is very very good! They dont make many mistakes like foreiners used to do.. Why cant they compete with the best all of the sudden?? SC2 is not a hobby for them anymore but the real job to get money from.

And Koreans.. are just Koreans lol. They are humans just like everybody else. They were and still are just as good as before. They take esport very serioously just like foreiners these days.

Anyhow, Im soooooooo happy that 5 foreigners made it to GSL S. Im pretty sure more would if they decided to play the qualifariers. Is there anyone who says that Serral, Kelazhur, Nerchio, Snute is not GSL code S progamer??


They are bad ( wcs backtoback champion = codeA player ) and they deprive ro32 players of what it comes to them, their only source of income. So, they have to retire to make a living, just because scarlett and his troop wanted to get 2-0ed by INnoVation.

But ye, we are wrong.


Wasnt the only source of income for foreigners the tournamets dominated by Koreans few years ago? wasnt it the main reason for foreiners that they took SC2 and e-sport as a hobby??
how can u live and provide for yourself (dont mind your familly) if all of the money Koreans grabbed because they had estabished team houses and so on and so forth?

If those foreigners are good as you say, why the hell Region lock still exists ? Answer me !


For how long there was no Region lock?? Blizzard wants to see competition between everybody not only KR vs KR. For that you gotta pump some money just to make ppl want to play sc2 and become progamers.

People complain that GSL is the only source of money for progamers from korea and now foreigners advancing to GSL take that opportunity from real sc2 korean progamers... LOOL just LOL. Couple years ago it was complate opposite but i guess u guys already forgot about it.


Wow, for GSL you said about the best players should advance, and for WCS you said Blizzard doesnt want to see all Korean vs Korean. What an argument ! So tell me what the hell you are considering ? Skill level or nationality ?


Region lock exists because koreans were winning everything ... yes they were the best and stuff but with time its get boring.. or it only interests group of ppl from that region/country. Blizzard wanted to change things a bit..

Anyhow, why do you even complain???? if Koreans are the best of the best.. then why they are loosing to foreigners..

We complain because the lower-tier koreans (who aren't the best of the best) get prevented from receiving their paychecks killing any hope of new young players breaking into the scene just so that foreigners (who already get enough money through WCS) have a nice experience.

Not to mention there's little financial point in advertising an exclusively-Korean energy drink to foreign audiences.

Aren't there some Western countries that import it? Can't find any in mine, even Pocari Sweat seems to have disappeared.
