yeah this is kinda bullshit. you want to grow the scene and its competitiveness and stop everyone moving to other servers so you ban foreigners from a weekly event.
your not only killing viewership your killing the skill bar.
kudos
thats aside

I know for a fact that all of our top players have played people better than these guys playing in these weeklies on ladder. PiG, ninja, mafia, glade, iaguz, rossi they all have countless games against code a Koreans, let alone code b. So there is no skill bar issues or whatever and we shouldn't pretend that there are. Baldie responded to the viewer issue though no one cares about the random code b Korean they've never heard of winning games against random foreigners they've never heard of for a prize of $20. tbh the only real issue with this is seeding for the poor international players who cant get spr points now.
As far as I'm concerned this is not an issue at all, I mean if anything you could argue that having the wT major open to non-SEA players is an issue of itself but I won't go there.
