What is the best way to make esports financially stable in the long term? I'd also like to hear discussion about the recent trend of foreign teams releasing Westerners in favor of hiring Koreans. For example, in the past 6 months: EG: +1 Net Koreans, -1 Net Westerners TL: +2 Net Koreans, -1 Net Westerners Complexity: +5 Net Koreans, +0 Net Westerners Fnatic: +5 Net Koreans, -5 Net Westerners FXO: -2 Net Koreans, -3 Net Westerners imba.FXO: +0 Net Koreans, -6 Net Westerners Mouz: +0 Net Koreans, +1 Net Westerners Reign collapsing: -2 Net Koreans, -5 Net Westerners Average Team: +0.5 Koreans, -2.5 Westerners Is this a good thing or a bad thing for Western esport fans? What happens to this trend when current BW pros switchover? I would hope it would show the "Westerners" that they need even more practice and motivation than their current regiment to compete in the scene. As far as the fans go, I feel that the majority of Western fans still really enjoy seeing the top level of play available at the time. The small amount of foreigners in the major competitions will still have a HUGE amount of fan support, likely more focused on themselves. | ||
