Prize per person for Starcraft 2 is equal to that of Halo for normal events and more for National Championships. That's pretty damn sick! Not to mention that Starcraft 2 gets it's own main stage now! Hopefully they do the event well.

Still so much behind compared to Halo. I just cant understand it.


Well prizes are anyway sick. I'm sure that some of the Koreans might even show up this season.


Halo has like what, 4 players in a team? You have to consider that, so SC2 ist more per head. (Edit: at least for the NC)

National Championship is sick, 50K, damn...


Oh yeah, ofc.. Still too much!!

Pretty cool to see MLG put a lot of money on the line for the 2nd season of SC2. If it is popular it will go up the next year. Supporting MLG will only make things better.

I just don't get the hate for Halo it is a different genre than Starcraft and yet people constantly complain how it gets more money or takes less skill (Console FPS vs PC RTS good job at that comparison). I am sorry but Halo is MLG's flagship game still. It is up to us to draw more attention to SC2 and get it to take over that title.

I'm worried about the amount of player slots (272). I don't think the sc2 community can sell that many passes. Starcraft has always been the spectator's esport.

I was extremely happy seeing these amounts. Now I just hope there'll be an event in the NE or schedules arrange nicely for me to be able to make one of the other events that's semi-close.

Hmm, so if the next season of the GSL runs in March, and MLG will be at the start of April, hopefully we will get to see the Liquid crew and Idra again at MLG.

the StarCraft 2 tournament will see 272 players square off.

My tournament system sense guesses 16 seeds plus 16 preliminaries of 16 players each leading to a 32 person final bracket. Anyway, that's a lot of players!

Can't wait for the games to start ^^. MLG did such a good job for there first season. Season 2 should be ever better.

I love that there are 6 MLG events with SC2 this year. :D
forgottendreams: One underage girl, two drunk guys, one gogo dancer and starcraft 2. Apparently just another day in Europe.

the price pool sounds awesome.
I wish we could get a similar time schedule like the osl / msl. Where players have more time to prepare for their next match. Oh well I know its impossible with the travel distance in an offline tournament in the US .

From the link...

Today, we proudly bring you the location and dates of the first two Live Competitions. We kick off the season in Dallas, TX on the weekend of April 1-3. From there, the Pro Circuit will head to Columbus, OH on June 3-5. Columbus and Dallas have proven to be popular mainstays on the Pro Circuit, and we’re thrilled to return in 2011.

Just wow. Everyone needs to give props to MLG for always putting up great events and applaud their organization and ability to get sponsors. Also thanks to the sponsors. I suspect this will attract EVERY PRO GAMER who is able to attain a VISA to the states... even the top top koreans.

Halo has 4 players per team and they also have a dedicated coach that is always with them that tells them spawn times and other things. So if i was a halo player I would almost be upset with how much money sc is getting (clear 4x less in regular season but only half for championship).

Overall im happy to see this kind of prize money for NA tournaments.

i thnik they should lower the national championship prize and increase the prize money in their other 5 events.. 5k dollars is not enough to atract most europeans and koreans..
