WCG is much more significant for those games whereas for SC2 it's just another big tournament like we get every couple weeks. I agree with you here. Still amazed how mobile games have such a huge prize pool, heh. | ||

Seriously though. For something that's supposed to be E-sports Olympics, their game selection and prize pool distributions are awful beyond measure. I'm not even going to get into organizational failures. | ||

For what do they use the revenue from spectator tickets and money from the sponsors i wonder? I guess for the 70k mobile game prize pool. WCG is nowhere near what it used to be. | ||

The prize-pool is fucking ridiculous though. It has to be sponsored by the developers, no? Like with Riot and LoL. I can't imagine anything else. | ||

I sincerely hope that at least 95% of that $40k was provided by the studio that made the game. It's still bloody ridiculous though. I'd love to find out a bit more about this game though, you know... like the community, all the progamers spending 12 hours a day practicing to become the best at it etc. oh wait... | ||
