You must have had a lot of players say no... Strelok, Dimaga, Darkforce, Socke, Stephano, Mana, Adelscott, Goody, Kas, Nerchio, etc... Tyler, Incontrol and Destiny? Why no Huk, Select or dde? I'd even take Vibe over any of those players. | ||

You positive it's millions in profit, and not revenue? I'm pretty positive, i'll continue to search for the article i read and post the link. Ok heres an article with an idea of what they made starting in 2006 till when this article/interview was published in 2009. So thats 3 years. profit:42.5 million. The scene is definitely much bigger now in general. I'm sure they make alot more than that. This is all profit btw. Even if they only threw an extra 50k for sc2 per mlg they would still be making bank. Plus who knows they might even make more from it since the stakes are so high. http://techcrunch.com/2009/11/11/interview-with-matt-bromberg-ceo-of-major-league-gaming/ | ||

Gsl prize money = way more money than MLG puts out. why would nestea want to skip out on a gsl where he has the best chances of winning for a tourney with a smaller prize pool? for honor and glory you silly goose | ||

Winning a tournament with the best players in the world > a tournament with many invites based on popularity and not skill. | ||

I guess they invited players from their ranking, since every player from EU is ranked pretty high. Many of the players you mentioned hasn't even competed in the MLG before. | ||

Well, yeah, but from a viewer's or tournament organiser's perspective, what's the point in financing trips to MLG for players who would have come anyway? And there's like 5-6 of those in the bracket. | ||
