This is a huge storm of shit about absolutely nothing. I think MLG did a great job to approach this. I like this way more than their weird MvP tournament. | ||

Format does suck for anyone trying to make a name for themselves, though. There's a couple of the guys invited who would be nothing if it wasn't for open brackets. | ||

I'm sure it'll be entertaining to see what the top players do with the new units for the first time, but that's all it will be, it won't be a serious competition, just showmatches. | ||

IMHO they had better to wait for anoher month, then do an open (online) qualification. Because a lot of people (including me), think HOTS is the BIG opportunity for SC2 to finally change something.. New players, new chances, new stories, new gameplay! Instead its all the old stuff, boring format, same players, just hots.. Bad start for HOTS. It sounds like you were never going to be happy no matter what MLG did, or you just have unreasonable expectations. I am sure there is some amateur tournament that will have what you are looking for. | ||

I don't know what is the fuzz about not having open brackets. I've never enjoyed them personally, I only care about pro level entertaining matches, and I didn't watch any "pro vs. unknown player" match in these tournaments. Also, I understand that some people that aren't pros wanted to play in the open qualifiers, but I guess it is win-win situation for me, as long as there are many good names. And btw Adam, keep up the good work. Tournament is going to be great, you can't please everybody. I will certainly watch it, since this will probably be the first HOTS tournament!  | ||

I can see the appeal for why some would go and why some people would decline. Will be great games either way. | ||
