These 2 pictures prove MLGs Dams point
sc2 stage and seats:
Day 9 photo of sc2 seats
lol stage and seats
The stage that everyone is so rustled about is actually Call of duty(look at the big sign above).
Conclussion:
1.They all look the same and have the same number of seats(there is nosuch a thing as main stage/basement stage etc).
2.Lol although having a bigger crowd gets the same number of seats of sc2.They should actually be the ones pissed of.And btw since the growing number of esports fans i wouldnt be surprised in the following years each esport reseves his own venues in places such as highschool gyms,university classrooms,cinemas,vegas casinos etc if the viewership keeps rising exponentially.
3.Incontroll since being an influential member of the community should know better to check all the facts before starting this sort of shitstorm.
4..MLG put up a great stage for us and I really like it.At least lets see how the tournament goes before giving them flack.maybe we can be a little gratefull.From what I have seen it will be a great sc2 tournament.
I shall keep the thread updated with any new relevant info
Also please tell me if you can see the pictures or if I have to reupload them again.In any case please check them out at
