I don't like the whole 32 grandmasters thing. Why not just hold a huge online anyone can enter regional tourney. Masters league and above only.

This season is very well constructed with continuous competition from late March through to early June. Brilliant set up by the MLG league designer guys... whoever those guys are... they pwn .. hard

Wow, very cool announcement. Hopefully, I can tune into MLG's casts for this season and watched some epic games!

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

naming schemes so confusing, smaller 8man arena sounds a bit silly given the freqency, and i'm really starting to feel an oversaturation of competitions that its individual value have plummeted for me.

Spring Arena 1 seems redundant, why not just seed top 4 from Columbus into Spring Arena 2 and 5th-8th into the invite only qualifiers?


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!

Its another reason to get top 8 at a championship event. And another opportunity for MLG to charge PPV. And another chance for MLG to pay players to fly to NYC. Maybe with only 8 players they could have room for a live audience?

like the Idea of a smaller 8 man tournament. Hopefully If they do it right you will be able to watch every match and not have so much overlap with the other games going on at the same time.

No it doesn't. It will provide you with an entertaining weekend where 8 of the worlds best players play each other. What's not to like? More content is good.

So wait, the open qualifiers is simply a qualifier tournament to get into the invite only qualifiers... wtf...
seems rather redundant butI am sure the games will be fun to watch as always- that is all I care about.

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.

Considering coming down from Vancouver, would love to experience an MLG, just wish I knew if there was going to be one closer later in the year

sorry, I might just be ignorant, but what's the difference between live broadcast and online broadcast?

Live broadcast is live from NYC and online broadcast is cast from replays i would guess

err what i don't like is how it's hard to get into the MLG "system" for a player once the first event has kicked in. 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?
