Wow, holy shit where did this come from? ^^

That player list is insane and the number of casters and matches are staggering. Over 200000$ in prize money? A four day event? Did IPL just decided to stomp on MLG or what? x))

I dont understand why IPL doesnt use HD and Painuser as casters anymore... HD's youtube channel subscribers made up a lot of the audience when they started with the very small tournament of IPL 1 and 2. I enjoyed watching these 2 casters more than any other caster they have used. Also, they really need to step it up this time after the abomination that was IPL TAC3. IPL 3 and 4 rivaled any other weekend tournament in terms of quality, even GomTV; but as of this moment some of us still have a sour taste from TAC3.

I don't understand how tournaments can still think that inviting 72 players is a good idea. Costs are exploding and there's still not more than 20 players who can win that thing. Most of those players get barely any media coverage and their stories usually don't give much more than telling who they've beaten. Everybody wants E-Sports to grow, but these assembly line tournaments are just producing an incredible amount of games with little to no meaning, instead of producing and hyping more meaningful matches. Prize money could be at least double that size, and therefore generate a lot more attention and hype than lots of B and C level players.

I wish ForGG was going. Really want to see him more at big tournies. Mill need to pull their thumb out their rear.

Also any chance of a brief race distribution? A few of the players I'm not familiar with.
