Even Idra agrees that it is Huk's special talent. I still think Huk is a beast when he is on his game. He needs to stop traveling to so many events, though. He and Idra both have super travel issues. Idra as always at his best in the GSL and online events. | ||

That's about .41 cents an hour (8 hours of content) Even less if you factor in the VOD's of games you don't watch live. Plus it's paying peoples salaries and mortgages, allowing more investors to look at Esports as a profitable industry, and will make MLG 2013 even better. | ||

It is heavily overpriced in my opinion. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the most stacked foreign tournament since the release of SC2. Hopefully there will be some great duels between even matched players like Stephano vs Polt in LoneStar. It is a lot of money. I know people love to treat it lightly, saying it's just a dinner + movie, etc., but what are you paying for, really? You're paying for two extra streams of gameplay and HD, and quick VODs if that's what you're into, and a GameBattles Premium account that it comes packaged with but which, for those of us who just want to watch SC 2, has no value. It's not much for $30/year, and a downright rip off for $20/event. MLG is the first tournament organizer using this kind of price model, and if it makes them more money then all power to them - it means there's enough people with disposable income in this community to support SC 2. But I don't want to send the wrong signal to Sundance by paying, and I know MLG employees are reading this thread - so I'm going to say here and now that if the price gets raised to $60/year or $20/event, then I will not pay for it. That's going into the range of buying a AAA video game, and MLG does not put enough value in their content to deserve that kind of price. | ||

This weekend for example i can only watch it tonight and maybe with some luck some matches tomorrow but on sunday i cant see anything. So there's no value for me in a weekend or season pass and now im gonna miss matches i want to see tonight (not on free streams  ) and want to pay for it but cant. So why still no freaking day passes or match passes? I dont get it, it's not that hard to implement..... | ||

But since MLG was there first I guess it managed to get an advantage in peoples minds. | ||
