I know there was an SC2 tournament at a previous MLG Dallas event, but I haven't heard of any other MLG events. No, it just so happens that the last event of the last season was in Dallas as well. The next MLG event is in Columbus, OH, and the rest of the stops will be announced at a later date. | ||

I know there was an SC2 tournament at a previous MLG Dallas event, but I haven't heard of any other MLG events. MLG travels around the USA holding several events a year. Next up is Columbus June 3-5th. Stay tuned for the remainder of the 2011 event locations. Also, if you have "Credit Owed", your pass more than likely still went through, and you probably have the player pass. If you have a question as to whether you have a pass, go to https://team-builder.majorleaguegaming.com/ . If you have access to that, you have the player pass. | ||

I'm unsure as to whether the Online Qualifier Rank points earned for Dallas would transfer over to other events; however, if they did, their value will diminish with each event (for example, the Online Qualifier rank points for Columbus, at Columbus, would be greater than the Online Qualifier rank points for Dallas. With Dallas being the first 2011 event, players should definitely take the opportunity to receive rank points by competing in the Online Qualifier, so they are not randomly seeded. | ||

The Online qualifier is for those who want to be seeded in the open bracket? | ||

Just let's be clear, what advantages do we have if we get this seeding? | ||

For the Online Qualifier, the top 64 players will earn seeding rank points. The first placed team in the Online Qualifier will earn 1500 points, and it will work down to the 64th placed player who would get 5 points (any amount of points is better than nothing). So for a hypothetical situation, not taking into regards any form of rank points besides on Online Qualifier, the number 1 team would play the 272nd ranked team, the number 2 team would play the 271st ranked team, and so on. So as you can see, the higher seed you are, the lower seeded team you play in the early rounds of competition. Now we can take a look at how the rank points are weighted. 2010 SC2 Pro Circuit Rank Points carry the most weight going into Dallas, meaning, 1 2010 SC2 Pro Circuit Rank Point is greater than any amount of Online Qualifier Rank Points. After Dallas, 2011 SC2 Pro Circuit Rank Points will carry the most weight, than LAN Center SC2 Rank Points (may or may not be implemented), and then Online Qualifier Rank Points. Depending on the number of points you have in each of those categories, will reflect your seed at an event. The more points you have (preferably the 2011 SC2 Pro Circuit Rank Points), the lower seeded your opponents are early in the competition. If you do not have any Rank Points, you will be seeded randomly, and may end up playing tough competition early on. So my advice to you is, play in the Online Qualifier if your attending Dallas. | ||
