The Halo scene dwarfs starcraft in case your unaware. At least in the U.S. First place in vegas for halo is 100,000 usd. The Ogre twins (ogre 1 and ogre 2 who are twin brothers, only 1 of them still plays) and there former longtime teammate walshy have all earned well over half a million dollars each from the Halo series.(MLG signed them to a 3 year, 250,000$ each, deal a while back) They dominated the scene of halo1, and halo 2. In halo 3 they have maintained top 8 but they are not the halo bonjwa's they once were. One year they won every mlg event. The ogre twins never lost a game 2v2 in halo 1 EVER! They also won the wcg 2v2 in halo 2. The last mlg halo 2 event (before they switched over to halo3) they're team of 4 consisting of Ogre1, Ogre 2, walshy, and strongside won the vegas finals without losing a single game in any best of 5's or best of 7's. But I recently read a blog by one of the ogres that says he has approximately 50,000 dollars of unpaid winnings. But he doesn't specify which events and which leagues owe him. They're team was STK (Shoot To Kill) back in the halo 1 days. They've gone by Final Boss ever since.

So... basically you're bragging about two Halo players on a SC site, while saying Halo dwarfs SC.

You should probably be a bit more clear - I can guarantee that the Halo scene does not dwarf the StarCraft scene. Maybe the North American Halo scene, dwarfs the North American StarCraft scene, but SC2 literally just released, and it's going to take a little bit of time to grow. But trust me, if you think the SC scene is small in number... you just haven't met us yet.

I like that MLG is picking this up. A very good sign for the NA SC2 scene. Let's see how many people turn out to start, although I'm interested to see if more than 32 show up. I think $60 is gonna be a bit steep for anyone who's not sponsored by someone.

sc, not in my knowledge, wasnt that big of a scene in NA. actually i feel that its ridiculed in a way . people label sc players as "losers" but praise fps players.... they have heard of sc but EVERYONE KNOWS halo. thats how it is.

but now with blizzard trying to actually market sc2 it could possibly fly.

It kind of confuses me how much of the MLG community think Starcraft 2 can be as big as Halo: Reach. Am I just oblivious to the other gaming communities? I was under the impression that the Starcraft scene is much much bigger than Halo. ???

With that said, it's good to see MLG pick up Starcraft 2 and hopefully open up the doors to a competitive proleague in North America similar to that of Korea! Goodluck JP!
