I don't really understand why they don't do balanced prizes. 40k + 20k + 10k + 5k + 2.5k*4 + 1.25k*8 + 0.3125k*16 = 100K Ok giving top plays some extra bonus is alright, but it's very skewed towards top 4. I like the rotating map pool, even if they have a few questionable maps in it (haven't really seen many games played on them though to see how they'll play.) One problem I have weith NASL group play is if you are half way through season, lost everything with no real chance of making top 16, why bother training hard for specific matchups for rest of season? Probably better training for other tournaments. I'm not saying people will throw games, but might not train as hard as they otherwise would. | ||

$44480 + $17790 + $4450 + $4450 + $2670 + $1780 + $1330 = 76950 Why does it say $117370? | ||

NASL said they'd use the maps that the community was pushing for the most, I had figured they'd follow suit from the GSL and MLG map pools :/ | ||

I guess its not a big deal to spectators but it seems unfair to the players that don't place in the top 4, which will without doubt be very very difficult. If ESPORTS continues to take off im sure it will level out eventually though. | ||

At Mlg dallas total prize pool was 14k and 5th place won 1k, at an event with ~7x the prize pool the 5th place money didn't change almost at all.

The scene is just getting to this level now so I'm sure future tournaments will learn that size of prize pool matters more than how much money #1 is taking home | ||

Though I remember on SOTG when diamond asked a question about chronoboost JP introduced him as the head of Iccup and Incontrol said "oh shit." So I really doubt NASL will ever want to use an iccup map he probably wasn't a fan of testbug being at MLG. | ||

-Why no iCCup maps? They're really solid -No Xel'naga fortress? Dual sight? -Why pick backwater gulch? | ||

The maps are ehhh, whatever. I know Backwater and Typhon aren't super popular, but they also aren't super-explored at high levels either. | ||
