FD canceling the trip is no biggy, but DRG is a huge deal. There is the speculation going around he isn`t allowed cuz of the GSTL, but I haven`t heard nothing official. I would appreciate a statement from DRG or his Coach on this matter.
keep it deep! @zulison

You should consider, that the LoL-Prize-pool has to be higher, because it is shared by 5 guys. So one of the LoL-players wins "just" 10k, whereas the SC2-Winner wins 35k.


except that doesnt make any sense. why SHOULD each player earn more in a team game if the sport is less developed? 5 player teams dont attract 5 times the viewers of single player teams. if lol is 'bigger' thats fine and dandy, but theres no logic behind 5 man teams = 5 x the prize.

So IEM gave DRG the opportunity to participate at the Blizzard Cup but now he bails on them ? :-( Find it a bit annoying.

Why would it be annoying that DRG chose his team over himself? Asian culture always chooses glory for their team, rather themselves. He has a chance to help his ENTIRE team get to vegas. That should be commended as he's giving up a chance at 35k for himself.

i think these days then can win without DRG, and i think they will beat oGs fairly easily without him, but i know what you mean, and i just wish they did let him go IEM

FD is still better than most players people would choose to name as "good" and even on a bad day he would whoop them...so I don't see why all you all hate...

He obviously has personal issues to get over...

I luckly was never a fruit dealer fan I saw his style as not lasting. It seems as if he just wasnt passionate enough about starcraft and esports to make his dream of becoming great happen. Darkforce is way passionate darkforce fighting!!

umm Riot puts a huge amount of money into any tournament prize pool. so Riot has auctally given iem a lot of money to make the prize pool bigger. happen for every IEM, and dh, and almost every lan that hosted for LoL, Riot has put money into that tournament. Blizzard doesn't put money into sc2 tournaments, rather they take money out of tournaments.
