(Edit: at least for the NC) National Championship is sick, 50K, damn... | ||

$50,000 for MLG Dallas. Knowing MLG I predict that jungle basin will still be in the map pool for next season. Interesting. | ||

Also what others have said about team size. Considering the amount of time I'd say it's well on it's way, maybe even going very fast. | ||

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. | ||

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! | ||

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 . | ||

According to another poster Halo players need somebody to remind them about spawn times in game? Caps on backwards confirmed. | ||

Last years national championship had like 6k(?) for first place and the regular seasons a lot less and still some europeans came. I think now that the sc2 teams are more established they´ll have an easier time sending people then right after forming a team. | ||
