and was my post not simple logic as well? The reason millions are spent of movies and they cost $10 is because millions of people watch them. So while MLG arena's are cheaper to produce than movies, they aren't being watched by millions, but rather thousands of people.

And in the end it doesn't really matter because for MY $10 I am getting far more content out of a MLG weekend than I am from a 2 hour movie.

Sorry im not going to talk to someone who clearly doesn't know what I'm stating. And in the end I could really care less about your 10$ and getting a much lower quality production.

Solution: don't pay, don't watch.

My solution: pay and enjoy a high quality tournament.

I still don't get why people get mad about MLG.

People keep saying "MLG is shit for putting it on the same weekend as Dreamhack". Well, this is as much Dreamhacks as it is MLGs, please stop going on MLG for no reason whatsoever.

This is extra content they're trying to add to get more regular content, and not only a big live event every 3 months.

And everyone else who isn't bashing MLG, stop bashing Dreamhack, that event is gonna have great games aswell.

Also keep in mind that MLG flies all their players to NYC and back to whereever they came from. Dreamhack is a completely open tournament, and all players have to pay to get there, this alone is a good reasoning for the extra price.

By the way for who is the GSL really free for? for people in Europe, you can't watch it unless its in the weekend or if you dont have school/work, since its between 9-12 in the morning. And im not sure how it is in the US, but for me, GSL is NOT free, and so is it for the majority of people, Arena of Legends isn't free either.

I am pretty sure it was all worked out before hand. Its not like they didn't ask Day9 or Husky what they were doing.

Everyone in the SC2 community does not need to be at every tournament.

Good to see Grubby casting, always a good idea to have a pro gamer amongst casters.

Why the hell is this a feather in MLG's cap? Granted it's great for the players and teams, but why on earth does it make a difference to the audience. If MLG can't create a tournament attractive enough or teams to ship their players out then that's hard luck. Why should the viewing public be made to feel obligated to foot the bill for plane tickets? As if it's a charity or something.

The fact that Dreamhack doesn't pay for plane tickets and yet top level players make an apperance shows that if the tournament's prizepool is attractive players will come.



I will not be paying for the first Spring Arena because paying to watch 8 players in a tournament over 3 days seems like a really boring tournament. Not to mention the fact that there is another tournament going on at the weekend that is free and contains a large and diverse line up (and in my opinion it has a better casting line up, Tasteosis & Grubby aside).

This is not to say that I won't look into getting a ticket for the second Spring Arena, as I enjoyed the Winter Arena plenty (And I paid for it, didn't watch a restream or use the workaround).

I don't understand why MLG doesn't offer free standard quality streams. There is an abundance of other free SC2 content that I don't have to pay for. I can afford $10, but I prefer to give my money to companies that are more focused on growing e-sports like IPL/GSL.
