Although it isn't my favorite format all the time, I'm pretty pumped for a big single elimination bracket.

No talk of extended series, just straight up win or go home.

Again, I wouldn't want this every tournament but it will be fun to see what these guys come up with on the spot knowing that you have to get off the plane ready to go or your tournament is over. Should be a great event.

Free 720p is nice. Hoping for some great games, and some great cheese builds. Of course, either Life or Bomber to take the whole thing! GG!

So excited to be going to my first MLG event! I've got my bracket to fill out =). I'll also be writing an article about the event for Examiner.com to get the word out - yay, eSports!

If you don't want to attend or watch, don't, but please stop following us around into every thread bashing us.

I guess it is not a professional or necessary way to handle such stuff openly by a gaming league (which by the way wants to go mainstream). What kind of employee does that to its league?

Not sure how many of you tried this, but there was a bug. Now it's fixed though.

Little confusing the way that is set up. It shouldn't be read top 2, it should be 2nd. Not top 4, but 3-4. At least that is what i assume since I am pretty sure life has a higher than 13% chance of catching his flight to Dallas.

Because Flash isn't that high up on that ranking system, largely because he hasn't played against all that many great players, plays a lot in Proleague against not very high ranking people and doesn't always win. He's still quite high up in that list.
