it would be frustrating for a GPD player to go all the way to the final only to get stomped by some masters + guy that decided it would be fun to win something

Sounds like me this week LOL.

Anyway regarding the OP, I never understood the logic of including Koreans in our local tournaments (When I say local I mean SEA/ANZ). The argument of 'higher calibre matches' and 'stimulate improvement among our players' is easily refuted by what Shortizz said, in that if players wanted to improve, they would play on KR server, etc. And they do.

I absolutely agree with what Eddie has done with the Master's Cup. In case you are too lazy to click, the new rule implemented is that non-SEA/ANZ residents are only allowed to participate in every 3rd Masters Cup.

Perhaps the CO and any regular tournament we have can be also adjusted as such - that every month, one of it will be an 'Open' category as many have mentioned here, but most of the time it is only restricted to local participants.
