I think they should give away the money as an actual bonus to players that have shown good games/series.....
For example "Best match" or "Best Series"....etc


I heard some casters say people on reddit want it to go to MKP, MC, and Reis for "best casting" as well.

I think it'd be nice if the $5000 created some extra content. Tournament with the people who are already out, or showmatches between whoever, sound like a great ideas.

Sure it can go into the main prizepool but what's the use, really? If it was added to the prizepool in advance the scene and tournament would benefit from it as well. Maybe we would have seen a couple more big name players, some extra media attention, or more viewers. The money won't really affect these things anymore and it makes more sense to make the most of it.

Don't get me wrong, the whole thing can only be a positive. Adding it to the prizepool is not a bad thing regardless, but yea using the money to create content would be beneficial for everyone.


I'm with Nazgul on that one!

Main general idea seems kinda of weak, 150~ bucks for all 32 player :S.

Mixture of prize pool/showmatches seems really appealing! <3

There's no real time to do showmatches. Either split it evenly or just top-up all the current payouts.

Normally I would give it to the top-finishing players but in this tournament I think everyone, even the ones who lost in the first stage, has contributed to making this a great tournament.

Therefore I think the money should be distributed towards everyone. Even if the ~150 $ isn't a lot, I think it's a nice way to say "thanks for making this tournament awesome".
Guys like Hasuobs and Moman who didn't make it past the first groupstage still deserves something for their casting imo.

They can always make a "team"-showmacth;
* Best of 7 or 9 > two team with 4 players each
* Best of 9 or 11 > two team 6 players each

The 8-12 players playing can be decided by an online poll, and the teams could be done by random pics ^^
I could take long, but not as much as 2, 3+ bo7 (1v1).

True but still, not everyone did something (not their fault if they are shy for one reason or another). Very few did that kind of "service".
Behind the scenes, u have great food and entertainment (poker and chilling in, what seems to be, the most friendly "VIP" enviorment for pro-gamers that tournaments ever offer). So getting money after this to, seems (to me) kinda of over doing it.

Give it to the bottom players to make the prize pool less top heavy. Everyone there has made this event fun to watch.

$100 for places 17th-32nd (the people out in the first group stage)
$200 for places 9th-16th (the people out in the second group stage)
$300 more for places 7th-8th (to raise their total to $500)
$450 more for places 5th-6th (to raise their total to $750)
$300 more for 4th place (to raise his total to $1300)

Spread it across all the competitors. I think they all deserve to be compensated for making this such a smash hit.

Show matches with special handicaps for both players would be fun.

Most enjoyable caster voted by the players and company there.

Spread more money across the top 16.

Etc.

Here's an attempt at combining some:

3v3 showmatches with most popular casting teams.

personally, i'd love to watch 4v4 tourney but i think time would be an issue there.

realistically, i'd say to give each player 100 bucks and then the rest towards the next HSC
eh?
