Seems like a waste of time to fly only 8 players out to New York and host an event. This seems redundant with the second arena.
do you have enough resolve, hero of justice?

People will get burn out of this soon if you keep having a tournament every other week. Similar to GSL near the end of last year.

Its ridiculous in that you have more analysts than players, this whole event seems a bit stupid. I mean you went on and on about how these arenas were taking MLG back to their roots of throwing a great tournament together and you decide to do so by having an eight player invitational and making it drag on for over 20 hours...


Also why the fuck did Grubby of all people agreed to go to this over DH, very dissapointed.


You're going to have to refresh everyone's memory because no one will remember "going back to roots" because it never happened.

In fact the arenas have apparently been organized to be the opposite of MLG's roots. Grubby is going because he's American by heart.



Ok then "going back to what we do best - which is live competition", I stand corrected oh great rememberer of quotes.

So since there are only 8 players, would it be too much to ask for every single players POV to be streamed the entire event? You're already doing it for 4 players, why not the 4 left? So Huk fans can follow him the entire weekend and MKP fans can do the same. Then when their match gets on the main stage or secondary stage they can load that one as well if they would like commentary. Honestly it seems like a no brainer and I could see someone paying up just for that.

Every single match will be streamed, and every single match will have direct POV streams from the players.

You didn't understand I think.
There will be one game on stream1, a second on stream 2.
And you have 4 streams to follow every players pov.
The 4 other players probably wont play at the same time as the other 4, so you'll see every game.

This is an amazing setup. But why blow it on a tournament with only 8 players and no live audience?

Pool play is just for seeding? I'd much prefer an 8 player FFA.

Did you see the Winter Arena? It was immaculate. IPL4 and even the Winter Championship were practically jokes compared to the Winter Arena. These Arenas (so far, like one, nice sample size) have been the best weekend tournaments to date. MLG is continuing to excel and innovate, proof is in the pudding of Winter Arena. That's what live competition in a small, niche environment will yield.

Is Grubby able to cast from Stockholm ?

SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...

I'm surprised and disappointed that MC's team SK, which is swedish, is letting him go to MLG instead of DH. Also Grubby is already announced as a player at DH so I don't know what's going on with that.

Pretty sure this is a mistake on their page, they mean the championship where it says Arena 2.

Not sure what you're arguing here but I'm just trying to say that MLG has been known for throwing outrageous world class tournaments with tens to hundreds of players, rather than continuing the trend they throw 8 players in and hold a ridiculous group seeding system into a double elim bracket. Then after the 8man invitational is locked in they announce they're gonna spend a shitload of money to have a ridiculous amount of casters for such a small event.

Sounds great, decent price, good casters (although I'm not fond of JP as a caster, Grubby being there makes up for it), and the analysts is a good move.

Will pay and watch unless a Guild Wars beta happens on that weekend.

It would be cool to hear Grubby as a full time caster, but with no free streams I guess that's not happening at least for me.
