This means LoL will not have to stand on its own two feet as a PPV event, which upsets me a bit.

I don't think they have the engaged viewership that SC2 has, and I was very very curious and eager to find out how the LoL PPV arena was going to go.

this awesome, my one problem with PPV for MLG is that if i pay that much to watch then i feel like i have to dedicate my entire weekend to MLG and as much as I wish i could do that it isn't always an option. super pumped for this don't even care about the quality as long as it is free

LoL wasn't gonna be PPV. Its quite possible that this sponsor that is footing the bill is doing so because of the LoL arena is happening too.

This is good news, it's impossible to try and get more people into esports if it's behind a paywall. I'm glad MLG has found a way to make this happen.

That's what I got from the quotes. Perhaps OP shouldn't imply "free from now on."

I took it as it will go past just this season, but will make a note that it may just be for this season.

I think this really shows why it's important to support these organizations as much as possible.

I'm really glad that either A: they are making more and more money from MLGs so that they can afford this handout to customers. Or B: They actually didn't make a profit during their trial during Winter Arena, and they got very little additional subscribers for the remainder of the season, and decided to switch payment models. Either way, I'm happy! =]

Awesome!

I refused to pay for the arenas considering I could get a whole entire season of GSL for a similar price. I'll definitly watch now though, as I do with all the free tournaments.

I'll watch all the advertisments you want me to, as long as I don't have to pay anything. Take note tournaments!

Woo, don't add me into negativity. Mine was good. I just wanted to know how much they made that helped them make this decision to make it more viewable by the more of the community.

Edit: You even took out me saying thank you and adding an exclamation point.
