Its probably played in the MLG offices, which are really small.

They should partner w/ a nearby restaurant/bar, do a HSC-style viewership experience!

Wow sick prize money, LAN and paid travel for what is essentially MLG's equivalent to the AoL (except with more relevancy to the main event I suppose).

MLG must have some sick sponsors lined up to be able to lay all this out without even revealing their big guns.

Fall of 2011 was a few months ago, I am sure Assembly had to book in advance like that as well. It is just funny how MLG gets all of the blame for this, it is both events fault in the end and both event's lose out on overall talent.

Well, www.assembly.org/winter12 has been online since August 2011.


Okay, a few months earlier, they didn't announce it until this week, is it MLG's job to go to every other tournaments website to make sure they aren't conflicting with them? August - fall of 2011 is a month or two. Columbus Convention Center says we only have ____ weekend open, they have to take it. Blaming MLG soley over this and then people over reacting how they are dissapointed and how MLG is selfish is pretty stupid, that is the only thing that bugs me.

I really think this is a good opportunity that NA sc2 scene can grow up. I am pretty sure there are more than enough pros to fill up both events. Viewership will be definetly splitted, but there are clear time differeances to watch both tourneys. I think this definitely good thing for us as viewers.

That is actually the plan.

To me it does seem i might have been right when i said that Best Buy will be sponsoring this season. Look at the spoilers in OP

138 of the best SC2 players in the world (based on the results of all notable 2011 SC2 competitions) will be invited to compete in their choice of three regional double-elimination online tournaments (North America, Europe, and Korea/Taiwan). Competition dates are as follows:

Hoping its off mlg points, I'm 73rd :D, like top 20-25 of North American/Canadian players

You're still such a hero dude. The victory against Polt was SOOOOO sick and set the tone for the whole event imo.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

IEM announced their tournaments well beforehand in August and MLG couldn't reschedule an online qualifier? Lol.

Assembly and Winter Arena conflicting? Bullshit. Not gonna blame anyone since I don't know the details (except the fact that Assembly publicly announced their event almost 5 months ago) but yeah. Pretty lame if/when potential players won't come here in Helsinki. I hope organizers once again realize that this pisses off everyone and they need to co-operate more.
It can't be helped. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I wonder who the top 138 are. I'm a bit worried about the possibility of Koreans choosing to play on the easier na and eu servers though, so hopefully there is a geographic restriction. Otherwise this sounds great.

Have a feeling the Koreans are gonna decide to spread out in NA and KR, leaving no chance for any NA players to qualify. Some KR players might even attempt to tackle EU, making it even harder for the foreigners to win anything.

Well you only get 400 for travel if you fly from an area different from the region you competed in. So thats a pretty bug incentive to stay in the actual server that you live by

It will be interesting see if any Koreans want to play in the NA qualifier, will be much easier no doubt ;].

Pretty baller for MLG to pay for all flights of players. However, don't understand the no live audience for the NY event as with no live audience, it would kind of feel like watching an online event.

Unless, the NY event is held at their offices and they deemed paying for 32 flights is cheaper than renting out a venue and having a live paid audience.

WTF I got so excited about the NYC event, but no live audience???

What's the point? May as well be in Alaska if there's no live audience. I've wanted MLG to come to NYC forever
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Liquid get more Terrans please...

glad they obviously felt ashamed of their prizepool in 2011 compared to dreamhack and actually are also paying for flights etc. :> can't wait for another nice year of starcraft 2 tournament action!

How is this a preseason announcement unrelated to the actual season?

This is the announcement of the winter season schedule minus what the prize money will be for the championship in Columbus. There will be four seasons exactly like this one: obviously Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall.

Early season: Online tournament qualifier event for the Arena event in three regions. Top eight from each as well as eight seeds (possibly top eight from previous season) go to the arena event.

Mid season: Arena event with $10,000 for first place in New York. No live audience, but event is offline. Presumably similar to what the GSL does in their studio.

End of season: Championship with what we all assume is a larger prize pool in a convention center in the same fashion as previous MLG events.

Repeat.
