I dont know guys but if you want quality, well produced tournaments and esports to grow you need to accept things like this and realize that it is still cheaper than going to watch a movie... I quess this will only be an issue for young people who have no access to a credit card. I have no problem to pay for my starcraft but I feel that I'm contributing more to e-sports when I actually pay for the product I want and not just because "it's the way it's going to be" as Sundance puts it. I think it's a big middle finger to everyone who got the gold pass aswell, especially seeing the recent shitstorm about that. So now I'm paying to see the grand finals of something but the qualifiers for it are out of bound, nice. Between KSL/GSL/ESV/DH/ASUS/NASL/IPL who give me more starcraft for my money it's just wrong to call everyone who does not pay "lazy" or "cheap when there are obviously better products out there and the way MLG has put out their prizes to players, I see no reason to pay. | ||

People pay more for UFC Pay Per Views and they are only like 3-5 hours max Meanwhile MLG offers PPV for 20 Dollars and you get 5 streams for 20 hours with all the people you've watched fight through the qualifiers. MLG has my 20 bucks and anyone that thinks that 20 dollars USD is outrageous then you are spoiled because what you are getting is worth way the hell more than what you are paying for it. | ||

Th whole " paying is always fine " mentality is not better than " everything should be free ". all i said was calling this a 'scam' was ridiculous. not sure where you got the impression my mentality was 'paying is always fine'. | ||
