They played Halo 2 at a Counter Strike tournament ^_^ CPL Summer 2005. (some old school Esports knowledge for you, although it was more specifically a PC game tournament CS was the main attraction usually) No such thing as disrespect, they are different games. Tournaments ran both versions of Counterstrike at the same time too.

Forget all the tension between BW and SC2, whether real or perceived. At least from the SC2 side, I think a lot of us will welcome the BW players with open arms - ESPECIALLY because we want to see how they fare against our current SC2 pros.
Regardless of which side you fall on in the debate (i.e. BW pros will destroy SC2 pros, or vice versa), I think we all want to see what will happen so we can (begin) to settle the argument
In summary: MLG Anaheim needs to have some BW pros vs. SC2 pros competition in Starcraft 2 - and it must be vanilla SC2 (Wings of Liberty). If they play HotS, that will prove nothing at the moment. I don't care whether it's relegated to showmatches or an exhibition tourney, but as long as we get one of the true top "elephants" facing off in regular SC2 conditions against a decent SC2 pro-level player (so that we can form some rough estimations of their current skill level), I will be satisfied
|
If the bw pros come here and lose, it doesn't kill the elephant, as the bw pros are just starting to adjust to SC2, we need to wait at least another 6 months of bw pros playing GSL/ foreigner tournaments before we can say whether or not the elephant is truly in the room. On the bright side, here is to hoping that this will be a great event, with or with out bw pros competing.
|
this mlg shaping up to be so eventful :o really can't wait to see BW pros try the game
|
All this hype again. I hope we won't get disappointed.
|
in how many hours is the annoucment ?
|
I think the announcement is in about 25 minutes?
|
If it's at 9pm EST like people are saying then it is in an hour and 20 minutes.
|

P.S. I think MLG needs to have a little fun with mocking/joking about how they're following iNcontrol's lead with making announcements about announcements

However, there are still the biggest of sc2 announcements to come.

But there does seem to be more stuff to come, though I'm not sure what or when.

IT's probably not going to be that great tbh... Considering its not even regarding sc2...probably "BW PLAYERS WILL MAKE AN APPEARANCE!" or something of that sort
