VANT had 38,000,000 prize pool while this 24,000,000. At least this one is not top heavy and everyone in the RO16 will get some cash. Sounds cool.
First place getting five times as much as second place not too top heavy? Huh?
I meant not top heavy as the VANT league. That one the first place took 6 times as much and non below 4th place took anything. Here everyone does take something.

Agreed. Hopefully this one will be a blast and attract more sponsors for the next season.

hmm, might attract a good amount of foreign audience if tastosis are casting but korean numbers have to be good for sponsors.

well just when we had the chance to mb get professional foreign casters back into Broodwar, there's a sharp decline. Less players advance from the prelims, less prize money and no sponsor. The last part is worrysome to me; if the annual big korean Starleague can't find a proper sponsor, it's sad times.
Happy to see this tho and best of luck to Scan who is training hard fot it. Competition is gonna be very tough.
