Neeb and Kelazhur are in Ro 32 now so there will be no group stage 1 and 2 performances from them

2 hours, gonna grill some spareribs now and then put them in the oven for 90 minutes and lunch should be ready just in time .

Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

It's really sad to see a Starcraft 2 Major featuring 100k price pool, no news media in the entire world will make a story about someone winning 25k USD, this will just be overlooked by the media and in turn the potential exposure demolished.

I love SC2, it's one of the best competitive games and eSport, but Blizzard really need to get a fucking clue about what is expected of a high competitive game and eSport in 2017, 25k for the winner is nothing, the pros could probably earn more from streaming.

For instance the 3rd and 4th place finisher could stay home and ask for donations while streaming and earn more.

Meanwhile I'm sitting behind the register eating bought bacon crisps while it's raining too much outside to even go to an actual store next door.

You... do realise that the prizes for sc2 tournaments have always been more or less on the same level as this one right? Then count in the fact that SC2 was much bigger than what it is now, we should be happy that we can still have as big prizes as this one in 2017.

throwback to 2012, roughly around the peak of sc2 i guess, when DH valencia had a 20k total prize pool lul

It's also hard to say how much Blizzard $ is being thrown into this tournament setup and how much of the prize pool it makes up.
