Pretend you just came by 5 million USD, but you would only be able to spend them on supporting eSports( or just sc2), growing eSports(or just sc2) or helping eSports in any other way(or just sc2). How would you spend these the best way? btw i do not want to hear about how you would not spend them on eSports, but buy that house by the beach you've always wanted. /discuss   | ||

Then the finals would be the top 8 of the NASL, the top 8 of Code S and the Top 8 of the EUSL fighting for their respective regions. | ||

I honestly think it wouldn't be a bad idea for TV stations either: for tiny licensing fees, they could reach a relatively large audience. Yeah, something like this. I think it would be a better idea to present some sort of a documentary rather than actual matches since it would be cheaper and more likely to break stereotypes and cause interest though. Also, you're miscapitalizing ESPORTS, OP. | ||

And create some kind of structure that would be on television. I'm thinking reality team houses with team league. Hmm... global so no one has to move just set up a few more houses fly the casters to different locations for different matches but hold the matches online. yes yes... could even keep a ridiculous amount in reserve for the winning team. | ||

Although if I invest it well, I could make more money from that 5m and then buy another team. I definitely can't afford Flash though. lol | ||

If I'm allowed to spend it anywhere in esports, I'd try to rescue MBC Game (sorry WeMade, but I like MBC better) and part-sponsor the next MSL. | ||

Buying MBCGame HERO might be one of the things I'd do, and maybe WeMade FOX too, but I'd be way too lazy to manage them. I might give some money to KeSPA because I'm clueless about which organization can do the right thing like organizing effective tournaments to promote BW spirit but just need a sponsor for their prize pool etc. Maybe start a foundation to help B-teamers have at least a basic allowance? 5 mil US should be way more than enough for a pretty long time I reckon.. | ||

or, if that's not allowed 2- I'd "slowly" inject good amounts of money into various tournament. Same deal - if tournament X sucks, then it's more money for tournament Y and Z (and the other ones). +I might also hire people to break Blizzard employee legs until big tournaments get LAN. +Also MLG needs bigger prize pools, until then it's a big conspiracy for airlines to pocket literally hundreds of thousands. =P (I know there's a big tournament a the end, but still) | ||
