I also hope MLG didn't do this arena just because they felt pressured. no, you pay $15 for this arena, the second spring arena and HD for the qualifiers for the second arena. | ||

I know this herpderp... but this arena is part of the 15$ package and an 8 man arena doesn't appeal to me. Also if I didn't have gold it would be 30$ which is even more insane. | ||

Its part of a package for $15. if you dont think the two arena's and HD for the qualifiers are worth your $15, dont buy it. simple as that. | ||

Disappointing to not have day9 at the arenas. no reason to massively overpay for a caster that nonfanboys dont like | ||

I guess i'll find out. their idea isn't to sell this as a single event, but rather as part of the spring championship package which is $30 for all the spring events (2 PPV arenas, and HD for the qualifiers and Championship event) and $15 for gold members. | ||

MLG's not dumb though, I'm pretty sure they know this isn't going to get the same level of hype...pretty sure... | ||

These tournaments take whole days and production is often bad so it takes even longer time etc. We want quality, not quantity. arenas are pretty damn high quality. hope MKP takes it! MC, PartinG and MKP still have code S, hopefully this isn't too bad for them in terms of prep | ||

We both announced on the same day and there is no one to blame but ourselves. We thought we were avoiding their large announced events and had no clue about the new qualifier tour as they had no clue about our impending Arena event. Shame on us for not being more thorough. I will say that MLG and DH are now talking extensively and have shared schedules. We are also brainstorming on ways to have synergy between the events next weekend. We are as unhappy about the conflict as many of you are. Based on recent conversations with them, I don't this being an issue again as both sides are committed to constant communication. May I say it's a bit weird you do that now and not after the first Arena ? Because the problem was here too. :< Is the event going to be in the MLG office in Manathan again by the way ? | ||

And yeah its gonna be at MLG offices. | ||

glad they have a better pricing now compared to the winter arena, 10$ is almost a non brainer like ipl4 for 5€ (+ a month worth of ipl content though) considering the whole spring deal as well, cannot wait. | ||

And people, last year we had 5 events, Dallas, Columbus, Anahiem, Orlando and Providence, now this year the major live events are - Winter, Spring, Summer, Autumn. So they removed 1 major live event, heavily boosted the other price pools and added 4 32 player arenas, 1 8man arena (so far), and you think all the arenas combined dont make up for 1 extra live event? I do agree it seems slightly redundant to have 8players for 3 days, but if the time isnt like "13 hours a day" then thats good, because one problem people have when watching these events like MLG, IPL, is if you don't live in the country hosting it, you miss so much unless you pull an all nighter. | ||
