Is it me or does the prize money seem kinda low compared to other events. I noticed that they do have a good spread of money though which is great but the overall prize for winning seems low.

This will be the year of MLG vs IPL it seems. Great to see MLG stepping up BIG time with these announcements. Putting it all together, slowly but surely. I'm loving it guys.

Another thing I think is super cool about this format of paying for players to fly out is that $1000 prize really IS a $1000 prize. It's not just $1000 that pays for the plane ticket that took you there and the hotel room.



Booking flights out of Seoul, parts of Europe (etc) generally are well over $1000. Each player gets a 4 night hotel stay (no sharing with other qualifiers). Its a big spend.

There will be _AT_LEAST_ one arena per season.


Oh, god, that's hinting. I know it is. AT LEAST? We can only hope.

Looking very healthy for MLG, hopefully with the Blizzard world championship kicking in as well 2012 can be a year in which SC2 gains a lot more new supporters.

So there will 4+4+X sc2 events during 2012! I wonder how many events are lurking within the x factor.

Are the Arena events going to be casted? What about the qualifiers? What level of coverage should we expect for these events relative to, say, a regular MLG event from last year?

Top 16 getting at least 1k is a big plus. I'd like if more tournaments start having a longer tail run of prize money.

Dumb question.

What about new players?

Are we still having an open bracket?

^ For reals, DC has such a huge LAN scene (trust me!) and all we talk about is how much we miss MLG DC T_T

The amount of money they are spending on travel more than make up for the prize pool. This is money teams don't have to spend and instead can use for player salaries. IIMO this is a much better and more sustainable business model than what organizations like NASL are trying to do. Prize pool should come second to production and player accommodation costs.
