Get your marketing right. Say 'MLG will feature the most popular MOBA game' since that is actually what it is. I just can't agree more. I still find insulting someone calling DotA a MOBA but, seriously MLG? I just love the way they say "BEST PLAYERS" when in "LoL" you don't even control multiple units... marketing these days are just fucking horrible! | ||

I assume you wanted to write "...calling LoL a MOBA..." though I think your point of view laughable. LoL is MOBA. You can argue whether it is ARTS though I think it would be really hard to take the definition and proof anything... | ||

PPV is kind of wonky for this though. Feels kind of like they are going off the novelty of the KESPA players rather than the skill. 10$ ain't bad. But I'd rather see Stephano, idra, MC, polt, MVP, MKP, Scarlett, Nerchio, Nani, dima...etc. some fan favorites, but mostly the best of the best. Throw flash, JD, bisu in there and I'd pay out the ass. | ||

Thats like getting mad at your tv provider for charging you. Let's try to pay for content for once. You act like tens of thousands of people don't already pay for GSL tickets. Some people don't think It's worth it to pay 10$ for an online tournament. Now if they had held an arena and invited Kespa players I would pay for that. | ||

What MLG has proposed with the MvP tournament seems like a lot of value for what we would be paying and I don't understand the issue people have with them charging a fee. The expectation that we can watch anything (even at low quality) for free has so permeated e-sports that I think many fans are being unreasonable as to its monetization. So many 1 posters in this thread. Hmm  Anyway charging money in itself is not the problem, it's what you get for the buck. And I'm sorry but I can't see or hear a bang. | ||

An online tournament, cross server and most of the foreigners are mid tier NA players who don't stand a chance. I don't really enjoy onesided slaughter. I guess i will invest the money into a GSL ticket instead (as always) | ||

What I was trying to say is why do "media" overall call DotA2 MOBA when MLG picks "the best players" and you only see LoL players? I keep telling over and over again that DotA cannot be compared to LoL! Not at least in a eSports point of view. They only have 3 things in common and it's two ancients, towers to defend and creeps attacking it. Besides that you cannot compare both! I just hope Valve once DotA2 is release they make an clear statement that DotA isn't MOBA. DotA2 is DotA and DotA is AoS. | ||
