This is putting NA SC2 on the GLOBAL map.
Halo-schmaylo.
For the people putting up the money (corperate sponsers) they want 1 thing and 1 thing only.
If they can push their product to 200,000 people in a 1v1 format, compared to 200,000 people in a 4v4 format, why wouldn't the prize money be equal?

Remember - no prize pool, no compititon. Let the sponsers do what they want with the money - its theirs to give away.
Play the games!

my question

are there booths?


it would be cool if the regular season was like 10k-15k that way they could draw koreans for the regular season. i only see a few if any showing up for regular season.

I am in shock and awe. However i shouldn't really be shocked, per se, since MLG said last year that big changes were coming.

But I did not expect this.

Huge!

Wow. That is ridiculously.

Honestly though, I think it would be better to move a little bit of the prize money to each individual tournament. This will entice teams to send more players to each of them. But I guess most teams will go anyways, so this isn't that big a deal.

$50,000 is insane. Sure, its for only one tournament, but considering how its decided in a weekend, that is hugeeee. I'm sure there will be some Korean players who will fly over to the MLG and give it a shot, especially the Code A players. Looking forward to seeing how this develops.

Glad to see MLG stepping it up. HuK was talking about the day halo players will say "dont worry its only sc2". It seems like that will be soon. Although MLG isn't as prestigious as the GSL, it's certainly cool to see this level of competition in NA.

The cool thing is that MLG put on a great show for Halo. If the production values for SC2 end up being the same as what they do for halo, that can only be a good thing for the viewers.

This will be really exciting. I hope there are multiple casters + a stable caster core Day9 and DJWheat.

Let's hope there is good control over the crowd's ability to give away secrets (sound booths or whatever), unlike MLG last year, "MO-THER-SHIP!" etc.

All MLG needs to do now is invite TotalBiscuit as a Caster, Djwheat, Day 9 & TotalBiscuit > The world!

Well they have already said each game is getting it's own main stage. Let's hope.
