It's almost like they don't really care about StarCraft.

It's just Saudi Arabia trying to throw money to change their image.I'm still glad to see the players get paid, but I'm not at all deceived into know that the true goal is just to look better than how they actually are.

It is not just to look better. Saudi Arabia has the problem of their entire economy being Oil and gas. Their Economy has comparatively almost no production and everything is greatly devalued. They have to literally throw billions of dollars at whatever they can on a weekly basis to prevent further devaluation.

And the maps?

Maps: Desert maps (except Martian Cross, which had to be changed to Martian Half-moon) Format: Reverse Phantom (the map commands all players to kill one after the other, until there is only one left to oppress. Players who refuse to kill others are disqualified and receive the Kashoggi Award).
