Also: Sundance has been talking about adding LoL since Columbus, WAY before Valve announced The International. It has nothing to do with beating Valve at anything. Geez, the misconceptions... | ||

Edit: SC2 had a $7000 prize pool when it was brought in mid-season, with no travel costs covered. LoL gets $20,000 and free travel for 20 players? If they have tons of chairs in the spectator area... | ||

If they have tons of chairs in the spectator area... Most of that is sponsored by the parent company Riot. and I'm pretty sure Grubby climbed to Grandmasters in sc2 the first month he started playing so I don't see how that is a valid complaint. | ||

Just because you don't like the console games doesn't mean that they should be removed. If we were going off personal preference I'd rather see BW on the mainstage and no SC2. | ||

Would help separate MLG from other cyber sport tournaments. | ||

I always think someone is laughing when they are playing, or playing when they are laughing... Damn it! the acronym was the sole reason I started playing the game, haha.
