I could believe this. In the 2011 grand finals, a mobile game (Asphalt 6) had the largest prize pool. $40,000. Whether this was done because promotion, sponsors, etc I don't know, but it still almost doubled every other game's prize pool at the event.

I cannot believe what a hilariously shortsighted decision this is. CS has been around for 10+ years and they're throwing it out for games that are fads that will disappear in a matter of months to a year.

If this came out on april fools day people would just be laughing. I still hope this is a joke.

They threw BW that started it all. You can be damn sure they can destroy another pillar, too.

WCG has been going down the drain for years. With catastrophic management and financial troubles, it was only a matter of time. I'm only surprised by how shortsightedly a company can act. It may work for a year or two at most as purely a marketing event, then it will die off as sponsors realize that noone gives a rat's ass for watching smartphone "esports". Farewell, WCG.
edit: If the rumors are true, that is. With how WCG has developed in recent years, I find that plausible.

Good idea! A problem could be the Angry Birds balance because since the yellow bird nerv its just too red bird favored. And the Snake lategame is just unwinnable for... the snake...

And

I don't know what is more sad, WCG if this is true, or the fact that we even have to question whether it's true or not.

WCG's decisions have been questionable for quite a while.

This is a joke right? A few days too early, but still... I mean really, this can't be true, it would be an embarrasment for esports...

THIS IS STORK'S TIME!

In all seriousness, this is pretty sad for what used to be the Olympics of esports, but mismanagement and bad decisions can really bring down even the greatest of organizations.

Pretty damn sure this is an April Fools. To stupid for something big like WCG to go mobile games.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death
