they do?rly? give me 10 examples about SC2 pros who have a lot of knowledge about business and PR.
so basically most of foreigner pros could run an mlg/dreamhack because they understand the business side of such things?

cmon stop dreaming
nothing is growing at this point.

there is a point with any niche thing where you have a base number and this number will stay hopefully constant.
at this point to invest in getting new people in is a waste.
you rather invest in keeping the people you have by providing them more awesomeness.

i will buy the first mlg arena shit and when i feel thats not worth my money.
i will not buy the second one its that easy.

A business should always be growing, if not then your business is not really succeeding. Why do you think companies as large as coca cola still advertise. Investing money in growing the scene is a very smart move, an even smarter move is to invest money so that you can do both, grow the scene and please your current subscribers. It doesnt take extensive business knowledge to understand a situation such as this one, all it takes is the ability to compare it to other PPV events (UFC, WWE). Also while SC2 pros may not know more about business than you, you can be sure they know more about the scene than you.

I agree SC2 pros definitely don't know more about business but they probably do know a lot more behind the scenes with MLG and other tournaments. That being said, it would be nice to get an opinion from someone with a degree in this stuff and/or has a lot of experience in business, companies etc. I'm sure there has been but it's probably like 1 in every 500-1000 posts.

I was a huge Idra fanboy from back in the beta, but man he makes it hard to be a fan of his. I'm much more interested in DRG, or Sheth nowadays.
