Nice to see the Sundance's thought process behind the way he runs MLG and Starcraft 2 in particular. I think with him at the helm MLG will continue its success and help boost the popularity of Starcraft along the way.

Hmm Sundance said something about 185 million of bottles of dr pepper. I didn't really understand that. What did he say?

Before StarCraft was on the Pro Circuit Dr. Pepper made special bottles with one of the Halo players and there were 185 million of those bottles.

As long as they fix the really silly seeding (ignoring the rest of the world) and massive protection of "seeded" players for no apparent reason, I'm happy.

Yeah, the extended series is a really bad idea as well.

Sundance you are a great face for the business of esports.

I haven't seen a techno post in a while, and I have to agree. Mr. Giovanni does the insight needed for this diverse business realm.

This is a really great and informative interview pushing the real views of what SC2 should be looking for moving forward. We are in good hands with Sundance!

great interview. sundance is very well spoken and i have high hopes for him and MLG.

its amazing that in a year MLG has far surpassed all other organizations in creating such a huge event. it is truly the best and most global sc2 tournament. GSL is a korean tournament; and wcg is meh.

Given how much the community has complained about that and given how much MLG listens to the community. I highly highly doubt there will be extended series next year. Plus it sounds like they are completely revamping their tournament system. I'm so excited for it!

Great interview. I can't find words to describe how happy I am that Sundance is leading this amazing team at MLG to provide us with this entertainment. MLG is in very good hands.

I love these interviews. I don't know why, but I enjoy behind-the-scenes interviews with some big names that aren't players, nor casters, but managers and business-people, etc!
