To all the complaints at MLG I'd say that I don't think flying in koreans and spending all your money on that is cool because I'd rather see these foreign tournies support the foreign scene but I understand why they make the decision to bring in the Koreans and thus the viewership. All of you whining about what you paid and that MLG is greedy that is just silly, I don't think these tournaments make that good of money and it's awesome that they're willing to take the risk to support esports. I can't be certain, but i think that foreigners bring more viewers than koreans (with the exception of some of course (Read: GSL)) It's simply that the foreigners are the players the general public want to see! Although many of them are not better, they are more in the spotlight, more popular, and more relatable. So i don't think flying in Koreans add that much to the viewer count! That is tricky. I'll tell you why. People want to see foreigners beat the koreans, they want upsets, underdogs and great stories.More people want to see the foreigners but they don't want to see foreigners fighting foreigners. So koreans bring more viewers to the competition even if indirectly. Sounds about right, and I guess it also supports the idea that "foreigners bring more viewers" with regards to the GSL

Thorzain is way too liberal with letting Socke getting expansions.

No free stream at all this time?
No, it is PPV.
You can purchase it by going to store.majorleaguegaming.com and purchasing a Season Pass.
Or a la carte from twitch by going here: https://secure.justin.tv/mlg_sca/subscribe/166/info

This is so much better than G5 of GSL... Constant action and trades not a double mass attack and game ends in one minute.

MLG. What a fucking joke. I pay forsubscription - and I get COMMERCIALS?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!
MLG, pull your head out of your asses. PPV, or free with commercials. Take your pick. MLG just lost ANY chance of me purchasing further PPV passes. What a pathetic business strategy.
Capitalism. Where fucking your customer is considered perfectly OK. Its not about capitalism but MLG policy, which sucks by the way. A greedy company considering the amount of money they get and still only pays 10k for the winner, which is pretty low if we`re talking about other big tournaments that dont even charge Other big tournaments don't fly in 20 Koreans for free. No, they do. Do you mean Dreamhack, which had a total of 5 Koreans, of which 3 were in Code B? Or Iron Squid, which flew in 4 Koreans? Or IEM WC, which had 10, of which only a few were in Code S? Only IPL4 (coincided with GSTL finals) competes with MLG for foreign concentration of high-level Korean talent. Rofl, dont say things you dont know.. Iron Squid had online fights, then the semi-finals would happen to an OFFLINE event, that is not even 0,1% related to koreans paying their trips or not. Please, dont talk stupidity. IEM pays for their trips aswell, or gives them an amount of money which is more enough to pay, even though if u finish the last place.
lol u have no clue what you're talking about....
