Ehh its open to everyone else who signs up as well. I think the top 32 gm players is meant to ensure those people are included as they have the best chance of winning. If they had it fill up before the #1 ranked person signed up it would suck for them and the layer. I think it is to 32 and another 100ish open spots | ||

The purpose of Arena 2 is to allow new players to qualify for Anaheim and prevent the same 16 players from making it iinto the pools at every single MLG championship event. Looke like its pretty fair other than the 4 mystery invites to Arena 2. Those four invites should have to qualify the same way the other 28 players have to. I'm sure MLG will release details leading up to each arena so you know exactly what you will be buying. It should be impossible for someone to participate in both arenas. One per person is plenty, that way more players have a chance! How many more seasons until we see regional offline LAN events similar to IPL? I would like to see one offline arena for each region rather than two in NYC. Thats up to 144 plane tickets to buy and 144 hotel rooms over the next 3 events AT LEAST! | ||

It's so that players not currently in the MLG system like MMA (and all of Team Slayers), Creator, Curious, Genius, Byun and many other Koreans plus Europeans like Kas, Dimaga, Mana, Nerchio, Strelok, Feast, Goody and lots more EU players can get into the MLG system and therefore try and qualify for the Arena to then qualify for Pool Play. | ||

Right now there is only the Open Online Qualifiers that allows and 4 invitations spots. Well, keep in mind that a lot of people aren't going to be in the Open Online Qualifiers, as there's no reason for the top 80 (Loser's Round 6 and later) from the just-finished MLG, or the Winter Arena attendees that weren't at Winter Championships (Nestea, Leenock, San, Mvp, LosirA, Pomi, merz and SjoW) to apply, as they wouldn't get anything from it. Also, the Championships are always open, and if they keep 80/256 in the system, that's what - 3 wins in the upper bracket? | ||
