After the first qualifier we have pretty much met our initial funding goal! We would, of course, love to raise more for a larger prize pool so the donation option will remain open but we are at Current Prize Pool: $2920 / $3,000
My apologies for the small hiccups that began the event, but I am pretty happy with how the overall qualifier ran, and I look very forward to our next one on the 18th Information below

After our last tournament, we managed to make back a small portion of the tournament's cost through donations & ad revenue (Blanket thank you to all those who got involved) We wanted to recycle this money into another tournament, and we are aiming to host something in the first week of September!

We're also going to do something pretty unique, and involve non-koreans only. There will be some who disagree with this choice, but it's not done out of spite or malice, but out of celebration & excitement for the foreigners! Everything will be European focus, and anyone from NA is welcome to try to play, but all matches will be on the EU server.

Okay so here's the bottom line: We currently have a little under $1,000 to put towards this. I'd love to make this prize pool as large as possible, and to do this we'll need your help. Our last tournament had no sponsorships behind it, and at the time of this post there are none involved with this one either. If you'd like to sponsor the event please contact Rifkin at MapControlCO@Gmail.com to have things like videos played, shout outs, or logo placement.
Prize Pool Format
1st place - $1,500
2nd place - $1,000
3rd/4th place - $200/$100
5-8th place - $50
1st place - $1,500
2nd place - $1,000
3rd/4th place - $200/$100
5-8th place - $50
Below is a link & paypal account that has been designated 100% towards holding the funds for the tournament (Making it a lot easier to tally up totals without involving a third party site) We hope we can fully fund this event and continue to create more kick ass SC2 content for you all.
