That's for online qualifiers I think, the open bracket should be open to all according to past tweets.

Yeah, I understand it the same way, the OP states it under qualifiers and says above, that 12 players are being seeded into the pool play via qualifiers, so the Open bracket will be International (Which only makes sence, because they give out WCS points. I still think, it is bad to give one region such a big advantadge though, euro toureys almost always have qualifiers for all 3 regions. And this pretty much guarantees 6 americans in the top 16 (16-top4WB-top4LB-Polt-viOLet), giving 1 region assured WCS points.

Open bracket =/= qualifier. Koreans/international players will be allowed to participate in the open bracket, qualifiers for being seeded into pool play are NA only. So yes it will be sick open bracket into Koreans raping NA players in pool play. Should be fun!

Also SICK that they are bringing back super smash, feels like it's been forever since it was featured at an MLG.

@monsta: I wouldn't host a LoL tournament either, LCS is way to monopolizing, plus DOTA (which was originally planed to be featured) brings in fairly similiar viewership and I highly doubt Riot would allow them to run both games at the same event anyway.

last time MLG had LoL was last MLG Anaheim. With everything being LCS, its difficult to run a big LoL event like they used to. Even that Anaheim event wasn't them same

I loved MLG open brackets. Always creates tension for the viewers and hope for the players as they still have a fighting chance

Just seeing this thread, are folks truly upset we are charging for the open bracket? We have always charged for the open bracket.

People are much more negative than they have been in the past, don't worry.

Those who don't want to pay: you aren't required to play, so either don't play or win it back.

They brought back Melee? Sweet! Now they just need to bring back Halo.

Some people just need something to moan about.

I want to thank MLG for bringing back Super Smash Bros. Melee. If I remember correctly it was 2007 when you guys retired it and I was pretty sad back in the day, so I'm fucking stocked it's back.
