ESEA pays out in CASH at lan finals, you'll get paid.

ok so 50$ per team or more to get in a tournament, then teams have to pay a shit ton of money to get a lan to have a shot at the prize pool ...

i like how esea is choosing to go with team leagues, because we need to promote teams in north america but i dont think you understand the financial situation of most sc2 teams...

cash in hand from the CS:S season 7 lan finals. tried to find a pic with EG and their 1.6 team's winnings but couldn't find one so you could put a familiar name with proof for you.

or you can look at: http://eseanews.com/index.php?s=gallery first 3 are the lan finals that we held in dallas this past november. lan finals have now happened for the past 4 seasons for CS / CSS / TF2 for the invite divisions

I still don't see where you are getting $50 a team, even if you do have 5 paid players (4 to play), that's $45.

You play the season online, and i'm not in the decision making on this, but I don't know if sc2 will be held on lan or not at this point, that's information more for dabears and laurent to provide, not myself. So the only way you'd even go to finals, if they were on lan, is if you were already in the garunteed prize pool, just like the other divisions (CS 1.6, Source, TF2).

I'm reallllly not sure where your negativity is coming in towards a league that has been quite established in the NA CS 1.6 community and has always paid out to players, but if $9 for YOU (not $50 for you!) seems like a lot at a chance to play for $5000, with a team like VT, i can't see why you wouldn't. If you are still not trusting in us, feel free to talk to TorcH, as he is your teammate and a RL friend of mine, he knows what sort of ship we run.

There's really no reason for you to keep on this 50$ a team crap. It's not much if you have a job, which you should if you're spending time competing at video games. If you don't like the cost to enter then don't play.

He means the individual payout per team out of the $5000 pool. It's not winner takes $5000, it's a payout system....

We're not milking anything, if we wanted to "milk" the system, we would not limit the number of teams to play in the tournament.

Let's do some math here, 32 teams max, min req. 4 players per team, $9 per player on a team. let's say we average 5 players on a team, just for a rough estimate, that pay. Ill also add, that should a team not be fully registered and considered a participating team, refunds are issued.

32 teams x 5 players = 160 players * $9 = $1440.

The whole concept of us making money off of this by "milking" players, is not there. Where does the other $3560 come from?

edit: note, we are not CEVO from your post, separate entity. they do their thing, we do ours. we're not ganging up on you. there have been, I only believe only, 4-5 different people actually affiliated with ESEA post in this thread, the rest are TL community members / ESEA community members that post here as well.

I'm just here to set the facts straight, since there may have been a misconception you had about the league, possibly someone else had it as well.

dabears should of been more clear about the prize distrubition part and don't you need a 5th player for the ace match or u can use one of the player 4 players for the ace match?

I still believe you guys should of made a package "deal" of 50bucks for unlimited amount of players... root has many players ... and many other teams too

c/p from rules: http://esea.net/index.php?s=content&d=league_rules_sc2

Each match consists of 4 - 1v1 Bo3 matches ; AvsA, BvsB and so on. In the event of a 2-2 tie, there will be an ACE match. Team Leaders are responsible for picking any rostered paid player to play the ACE match. This ACE match will be the “tie-breaker”.

me and my buddy are looking for 2 more people to play with us in the first season of the esea league.

for those who do not know here is some info about it

http://esea.net/index.php?s=esports&d=comments&id=8979

were both around 2300 diamond right now and looking for two players in roughly the same skill range or higher. currently it is me (Terran) and my friend who is zerg. would like to pick up a protoss but we are more interested in winning than having one of each race

the more experienced the better. here is my sc2ranks, i know it doesnt mean a whole hell of a lot.
http://sc2ranks.com/us/1226868/vontz

if you want to leave your ingame name and char id number like in the practice partner thread i will get back to you when i can. i am however going home for christmas so i wont be back until the 26th but will be checking and responding to this thread while im home.

or if you want to message me when im online thats fine as well
vontz 895

hope this thread gets some love and merry christmas to everyone.

edit: please have ventrilo or at the very least skype

nobody is forcing you to play in the ESEA, im sure VT can field other players. every post youve made in this thread has been of anger, just relax and let the details come as they will
