Want an easy way to follow the brackets, streams, schedule and all the other activity happening at MLG over the next three days? Check out our MLG Coverage page which has links to our up-to-the-minute brackets, pool play results, stream schedules and our Twitter feed from the event floor.
Holy shit that's sexy. If there's one thing I've hated in MLG, it's trying to figure out what's going on where. If that page makes this easier, it will be amazingly awesome.
Any chance the schedule times could be expressed in the time zone indicated on your profile? That would make it really easy to follow the games.
EDIT: Nevermind, I see the time is given in PDT just below the schedule. That's easy enough.
Me love you! This is always what I miss during MLG weekends, it is a living hell trying to find anything on the website and I end up with info all over the place.
I just noticed that the Pool and Bracket links go to Liquipedia and not the MLG official info. How up to date is that information going to be compared to the MLG official standings? Can there be a link to the official brackets/pool standings somewhere if there is a lag in updates?

I believe wiki staff is on that, if you consider Antoine is doing the LRs, not to worry and MLG site is slow as shit anyways with all the people having it open for watching stream and what not.

Liquidpedia has always been way faster for MLG events.

Last 2 MLG, not only were updates slow on the official site, they even sometimes put out the wrong results.

Results for liquipedia are going to come in straight from the floor, not being copied from the (often slow, sometimes even incorrect) official brackets up on the MLG site.
I had an issue with this site when using the Team Liquid Sidebar Updater. If anyone else is using this as well (and doesn't want to disable this wonderful script!), edit it to include the following line after // @include http://*.teamliquid.net/*
Wow, ultra looks about as good or better than MLG Columbus did from the floor of the event! And I actually get a chair this time around and hey, this one reclines.

Could be you use some kind of ad-blocker to not see the ads on the free stream, and you have to updated the stream manually to get to see more after the ads have finished up?
Thank you so much for enhancing the MLG experience! Awesome! MLG very cool and stuff, don't get me wrong... but their page SUCKS ASS! A pain to navigate and find the stuff, srsly. Not even google's search engine finds anything on there.

Boxer's most impressive ability is to work matchups before the match & he comes with a specific builds).
He is 1-8 in TvZ because he played against 5 games nestea, 2 games to Zenio. Zenio is considered 1 of the best players in oGs while training (in-house).
Yeah this is honestly one of the best things TL could have done. I always find MLG's information to be somewhat scattered and hard to access in general.
This is far easier and much more enjoyable to navigate than the MLG page, thanks for doing this, I hope the guys at MLG take some notes, but of course they can't rip-off Liquipedia
Sorry guys but I just don`t get this... Why on earth does DRG have such a big fan base? Here`s this Korean guy, practiced 1 trillion hours, figured out how to play starcraft 2 (such as NesTea but at least he`s staying in korea owning his country unbeatably, giving a chance for Foreigners to fight in tournaments...), and he will have 110% chance to take MLG without losing any game (not set). So what`s the point in cheering for him? Just because he takes out every single player ? no reason...

Going by your theory top teams / atheletes would deserve least fans?wtf

My opinion is specifically related to SC2. All of the sudden comes a guy of this caliber literally owning everything and everybody loves him... Im just saying that many people are only supportive because some players` recent accomplishments

This is really really awesome - Also a great way to showcase what an amazing job the TLPD-guys are doing.. They're the everyday heroes that everyone forgets, however you'll almost never find a player profile or tournament out of date.
Thank you R1CH, but especially - Thank you TLPD-team for updating everything, you guys are all bosses!
This is brilliant, thank you so much for this, not sure why tournament websites make it so difficult to find simple information like this(not talking about just MLG).

They still have Tyler and Jinro alive in the open bracket, although if they both win their next matches they have to face eachother. This MLG was set up deliberately to teamkill TL as much as possible I think
This portal page is pretty awesome, thanks to TL and whoever worked on it. It's pretty odd to see the MLG sponsor logos at the bottom - I hope TL is getting some money for this!
Really AWESOME job R1CH, Hawaiianpig and TLPD staff - Perfect updates on matches and development throughout the tournament.
I'm pretty put down by the amount of content provided by the on-site TL-staff though.. Not even a single player interview throughout the weekend.. If this is the cost of running a player-lounge at an event, I think we should stick to what we've done in the past.. I mean, afterall, it should be community #1, right?
So yeah, GREAT job TLPD, R1CH and Hawaiianpig for bossing it up with the Coverage portal
Since they are offering code S and A to Koreans who compete in MLG without using exchange program, we will see more and more Koreans in future MLGs. It's good this way because it encourages people to practice harder instead of whining on the forums how much better Koreans are.

We were busy making ESPORTS. I watched maybe 5 matches including the finals all weekend and ran on 15 hours sleep over 3 days. Ibsen co-ordinated the lounge over the weekend, not staff in the venue. Priorities + trying our best!

I'll back this up and say that the TL staff looked like they were working harder than the mlg staff at times.
hotbid surprised me as hes more important then he seems, hes not just camera troll and a pretty face... he busts his ass for the community.
speaking of which, my bro Kennigit was a nerd baller all weekend. hats off to TL guys, I was impressed by their professionalism.

Hey now, we released something. In earnest, though, we dropped the ball on exclusive live coverage. Waxangel was not pleased and we're being thoroughly grilled.

lol please don't exaggerate this, MLG staff work insanely harder than anyone over the weekend it's absolutely absurd to even compare.

particularly the sc2 one?
They've released some numbers. They said they topped 100,000 concurrent viewers iirc, and over 30,000,000 overall stream views (non-unique I think).
100k for sc2 only or MLG in general??
Don't know the details, only got that from what Sundance said on stage and over twitter throughout the weekend. MLGRyan has an AMA on Reddit and might have more info on it but I doubt he's allowed to be very specific either.
