Please take time and get your facts straight before you comment. All players were flown to Valencia for free. All players got to stay at a 5 star hotel. All players had their own computers available during the entire event. Top 2 gets wildcards to DH winter. Winner got 15000 USD. | ||

There are many others I'm sure Have you been to an MLG? They know how to put on a show. As for a quick game turnover... there are 256+ people competing with 4 games and 4 stages...it's understandable how a tournament with 8 players has a faster game turnover. Blame the ceremony on American MLG staff who haven't done anything with SC2 before starting the past year or so. As for advertisements, can't complain there. You can't say that MLG has a shitty production, because it doesn't. MLG is very VERY high quality, and so is Dreamhack. They're just two different beasts. | ||

And it's an invitational so ofc there's no open tourney, that's the essentials of the tournament though. Regarding the last part, that's an opinion but I didn't cringe once during that one. | ||

Quick game turnover is always going to be an issue when you have SO MANY GAMES played over the weekend. I do think MLG needs to just put on games regardless of having no casters though to fill the gaps. You're telling me that ceremony wasn't awkward? Loool. All those jokes on stage where borderline awkward depending on your sense of humor. MLG> DH sorry. | ||

The point is, it's just champagne. In basically every part of the world, champagne is used for celebrating. I highly doubt anyone -- even if this took place in America -- is going to get in trouble for giving the winner of $15,000 a sip of alcohol. This is really pathetic. Yeah, alcoholism is promoted by a nerd not knowing how to open a bottle of champagne.... Just don't... wrong... never mention this shit again... 15 legal age for driving (this is actually INSANE, what maturity can a kid of 15 have) 18 to be able to go to the army and make legal decisions, yet 21 to have a sip of beer or champagne... Don't ever try to bring this topic up ^^ By the way, congrtats to DRG he deserved it!! | ||
