If Jaedong goes to this I might have to plan a trip to NY for this weekend. Was so excited for MLG Columbus this year but since they're not doing SC2 I have no reason to go. Hopefully we'll have another event in Columbus OH someday but in the meantime NY isn't too far away!

Hmmm 8 players for 50k means a lot of money for some players.In a way I like this lineup it reminds me of the ppv streams mlg used to do when with 8 invited players.The matches betwen drg and marine king were awsome back then.I will definetly watch the event.The other players that really need inviting are Naniwa,Scarllet and definately Jaedong.Maybe even innovation now that he is with acer or a well know kespa player like maru,rain.

Also please stop with the redbull being the reason mlg dropped sc2.Mlg dropped sc2 because it was in conflict with blizzard and also because they picked up dota2,Sc2 will not be neither at fullsail nor at the next mlg in Orlando or god knows where it will be.There were enough threads about this.Redbull hosting this tournament had nothing to do with mlg decision.Although it seems a bit stupid that 2 major tournaments could not find a free date all year round so that they do not collide.

This event is the reasons MLG did not run SC2 that weekend. MLG Adam said it directly several times, including to me. It is fact. They schedule these venues in advance and you can’t just “switch the dates”. Don't tell people to stop saying things that are true.

No he didn't tell you anything.You have to provide a source for that.The only thing adam said on reddit was that somethings happened behind the scenes we do not know about.And mlg didn't drop sc2 just for fullsail where it collided with redbull but also for the next big event in Columbus where there is no redbull conflict.
And mlg adam didnt tell you personally anything.You are either lying or simply psychotic.Provide evidence that mlg adam said anything directly to you in the regards of sc2 being dropped because of a redbull conflict conflict and I willl personally do a video singing Lady Gaga-Alejandro and post it on youtube and tl.

All right, I guess I could post my inbox from TL in the thread when I get back home, or my direct messages box from twitter if its so important to you. It’s a little weird. The simple fact of the matter is that you are just refusing to believe that MLG and Redbull had conflicting events and you want there to be other reasons why MLG is not carrying SC2 for one event. There is no top secret plan to stop carrying SC2, its just that there is another event that weekend. You might be bummed out if you have to do that youtube cover though.

well you seem to be posting on this website now so that means you have internet and you have access to tl. so why can't you post them now -.-

Phone ?

Work, the place where you don't upload screenshots to the internet if you want to keep working.

I don't think you can fill a 2500 viewers venue in USA with players like Snute and Golden. Seriously, wtf?
This already looks like destined to be a disappointment for Red Bull in terms of viewers.

That said, still looking forward. Will watch it, no matter who plays.

There are zero events on this side of the US that anyone in the NYC or Boston are can see. This may be the only live event we get all year. I don’t think they will have any problems filling the venue.

Making it 16-player event would be much better imo

you might be right regarding the viewership.but mlg isn't ti3.and redbull never had much viewership in the first place so probably this will set a record for redbull.

The four remaining qualifier spots are going to be so contested. For a piece of the $50,000 prize pool, every player will have to give their best to have a chance at the first prize. And with only 8 players total, it won't be as exhausting to play through a weekend.

Ya same here. I'm pretty upset that Life hasn't played in any of these Battlegrounds yet. :-(

Well, I'm gonna watch this even if Life isn't playing, but it would be awesome to see him play in one of these Battlegrounds...

to give some perspective, the recent ASUS ROG tournament had a prize pool of 25000.
50000 is a crazy high ammount with only 8 players imho. expand it to at least 16.

I have to believe life doesn't want to go or something as it makes no sense for redbull to never invite him to these things. Life should be here as he has nothing to play these days besides code a so we hardly see him now.
