And I`m not only talking about smaller tournaments, I`m talking about the big ones like DH, IEM, IPL, GSL.. they mostly like are free to watch and even give higher amount of money to the winner.. IEM doesn't pay for trips. They provide a travel stipend, but that is not enough to cover the cost of a flight. It's why startale sound couldn't go to IEM even though he qualified from the last home story cup because star tale couldn't afford to send him. I don't think DH pays for trips either. IEM gives money to the participants who finished last in their tournaments, an amount of money kinda exactly enough to pay for the trip. | ||

MLG would get near enough the same amount of income anyway if not more and more people would be watching there for making better for the sponsors. $5 would be great but $10 sounds about fair, $20 Am sorry thats just extortion. Seriously STOP writing posts like these (and this is meant to everyone). You could have bought Arena 1 + Arena 2 quals + Arena 2 + Spring Championships HD for 30, which is 10 per event + one week of online broadcasts. Or buy gold membership, which would include all the Championships (so 4 events, winter-spring-summer-fall) in HD for "i-dont-know-how-much-exactly" and then buy Arena 1 + Arena 2 quals + Arena 2 for 15. Just think in advance. Or at least, just think. | ||

His highest winrate ever was vs Protoss. Explain that by saying Protoss was imbalanced. edit: but yes, especially against Rain he won through abusing Warp Gate and Forcefield. He played to his race's strengths - how does that delegitimise his wins? He 4 gated every single PvP back in the day -_- He didn't win against Rain by Warpgate all-ining though. He won one game with a 4gate vs a blue flame hellion drop, in the other ones he was doing weird stuff and winning anyway. The "warpgate rushes imbalanced" thing is weird anyway, cause they haven't really been changed, and they're not a problem anymore, so logic would dictate that they weren't imbalanced, trying to defend them with hydra/ling - like July did - was just a bad idea. It has been delayed by 20 seconds. Although looking at the games vs MC back then, an extra 20 secs wouldn't have given them a much better chance anyway... Yeah, but that doesn't delay the 2 base 6 gate (which MC became known for in 2011) at all. My point was, during his run in GSL Open nr 3, he did a whole lot of weird PvT builds, lots of stargate openings, every possible tech path off 1 base, 4gate into DT into double expand and templar tech vs MKP, and so forth. And later in 2011, he practically stopped all-ining in PvZ, and would basically expand into Stargate every single game. | ||

Definitely not buying an MLG pass again for the summer :/ Please email us at support@majorleaguegaming.com so we can help you with the issue. Yeah I had this issue last time around and never heard back from your support when someone said the same in the LR thread. Fixed it then by logging out and back in again on twitch (someone in the LR thread suggested that to me), but no dice this time. Seriously MLG, if this is your 'support', I'm not very hopeful. And now I got an automated response email. Some quality stuff really. 'clear your cookies/cache, use firefox, log out and back in on twitch/mlg'. All done done and done, still I get paywalled as a paying customer. My frustration with MLG's bullshit support is reaching new heights.
