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... Guess what, Samsung is the sponsor of WCG, so it makes sense that they would have a mobile game with a big prizepool because they SELL mobile phones... The only thing that is completly unnaceptable is to have such a top heavy prizepool, first gom with the blizzard cup and now that? >_<. | ||

It has to be sponsored by the developers, no? Like with Riot and LoL. I can't imagine anything else. ok its quite clear then, they will be able to show the nexus prime or w/e on the main stage for a while,i guess the prize is given by samsung, how sad :/ | ||

Just like how Riot usually does for all the League of Legends tournaments. Not a bad chunk of change for MVP. Also remember SC2 is a one man game. Most of the WCG games are 4 to 5 people who have to split the prize. I really hope MVP wins this - I love him too much | ||

I really hope MVP wins this - I love him too much Too late, MVP is now out of the first round You'd think a prestigious tournament like WCG would have high prize pools across the board. I don't want to comment on why one game has more money than another, buy I do feel that all of the games don't get enough love Except Asphalt...what? Really? | ||
