IGN has what? stream commercials? is IGN trying to set up something similar to MLG?



IGN already has loads of money to throw away from all there other stuff.

If IGN doesn't stack the player pool with Koreans and actually supports the players here in the US, I think its a great idea.

Cool, you'll be the only guy watching. Not too interested in seeing Minigun versus Machine in the Ro4 for $100,000.

Well said. I too would love to see korean invites, as well the ability for ANYONE to compete in the open, korean or not.

With that kind of money, it should go to the best of the best not designated to Drewbie and his NA pals.

Bring on the Koreans!

If you think a tournament without GSL players would be a memorable thing to watch, take a look at the IPL Team Arena games from tonight (excluding Kiwi's) and then tell me you would organize your time and take 3-4 days to watch games of that level. Especially if there's GSL or MLG mixed in for the same weekend.

Foreign players do need support, but they need support to be able to train full time and reach the necessary skill level to compete, they don't need tournaments with mediocre competition. This is what HuK, Jinro, Nani, SaSe and Thorzain (and even cArn) are trying to do and foreign players who are serious about the game will follow in their footsteps.

I hope Koreans get to play in this. Foreigners don't deserve to get to compete for this kind of money by themselves.

Whatever if Koreans are still excluded I am still not going to watch. Nothing can match the excitement of watching Huk/qxc/IdrA beating Koreans against the odds.

This is cool. All of the IPL stuff I've been able to see has been of stellar production value. Also, their commentators are above average, they try to include extra features outside of games themselves, and their lineups have been good.

Sorry dude, but Idra hasn't won a series aganst a Korean since he left GSL. I'm not counting the pool play series against MC since he lost the whole (extended) series 2-4. You're probably better off placing your hopes in Naniwa or tgun tbh

Pretty cool, but echoing what eveyone else is saying, without the Koreans, all these upcoming SC2 tournies feel like its the minor leagues. Hell, I dont really watch any IPL currently, as its just so boring, with the crappier lvl of play.

IGN pro league has very good production value compared to NASL almost flawless in fact.
But I watched season 1 NASL despite all it flaws not IGN pro league because NASL has better roster therefore better matches(especially the grand final Puma vs MC).

If there is no Korean i wont bother watching this.
