We have always charged for the open bracket. 3 pages of random people arguing without historical context or much common sense != folks. Most of us here knew how MLG works from years ago.

MLG quickly becoming Minor League Gaming in the eyes of foreigners (not from the US). Can't host a pro LoL tourney and their SC2 is an amateur tournament with a couple pros (kind of similar to semi pro tournaments that consist of a bunch of decent players getting stomped by a top 100 pro).
Nevertheless, America needs them, and both LoL and SC2 need more minor leagues to participate in. WCS Challenger isn't even close to cutting it.
I just hope MLG can stay afloat with these circumstances approaching.

Interesting. Yes, I hope for the sake of Starcraft 2 that MLG is successful at Anaheim and that we get to see some great games. Also, having Axeltoss and Axslav host, cast, and/or analyze would be great.

We have plenty of good NA casters around, we should be using the best available people.

I'm surprised this doesn't have a Liquipedia article yet.

It'd be good to see some giant open bracket play again. Here's hoping for some upsets and dark horses!

Nice to see MLG operating just like old times! Hopefully this one is a success and we have an east coast event! :D
|
Aren't there qualifiers this weekend? I can't find any info on them...
|
hopefully i'll have the time to watch and revitalize my interest in the game :D
|
I really look forward to watch an open bracket MLG again, it's been too long.

Any update on who's signing up for the open bracket? I heard MKP anyone else? Kespa guys?
|
Not very familiar with that, but is the entering cost usually that high ? They get like half of the prize pool by that. EDIT : didn't read the comments before asking ^^
