Nice to see mlg get a major, hopefully the crowd shows up even though there will be no big name talent like machine, pansy, deman and the borg cube.

I don't think I'm familiar with anyone from MLG. Can we expect some familiar faces or they have their own crew?

Also, no Katowice major then. There will still be a $250k tourney, just won't be a major.

They had DDK and Sadokist at MLG Aspen.

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

USA Major?

Yay! I get to see Ninjas In Pyjama win a major in person! Get Hype!

 

[tootsi666]

US Major. EET-timezone thanks

Edit. MLG will hire external talent. Hopefully "other broadcasting platforms" include twitch so we can have Anders and Semmler there.

So the MLG major will be over 6 days and take place in Columbus, Ohio. Glad it's not on the west coast.

NEW YORK – November 20, 2015 – Major League Gaming (MLG) today announced the MLG Counter-Strike:Global Offensive Major Championship: Columbus to be held at the MLG Arena and Nationwide Arena from March 29 – April 3, 2016 with a $250,000 prize pool.

The first-ever Major to be held in North America will kick off Tuesday, March 29 at the MLG Arena with 16 of the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive teams from around the world battling it out over 3 days in front of a live audience for the Group Stage Matches and Quarterfinals. In addition to the live event, fans will also be able to attend a one-of-a-kind viewing party hosted by MLG in the nearby Arena District.

On April 2, the action will shift to the state-of-the-art Nationwide Arena, home of the National Hockey League’s Columbus Blue Jackets. Over 2 days, the remaining teams will compete in front of thousands of fans during the Semifinals on Saturday, with the Grand Finals and All-Star Match taking place on Sunday.

“For our first CS:GO event we brought the competition to the Aspen X Games,” said Adam Apicella, MLG. “We wanted to bring the game back to North American fans in a big way, and hosting a Major in front of thousands of spectators at Nationwide Arena is an exciting way to do that.”

The CS:GO competitive scene has dominated the eSports landscape in 2015, with over 8.6 million unique players logging on to play last month and record-setting attendance and viewership at live events throughout the year. The upcoming Major, the first-ever in North America, will provide an opportunity for thousands of fans to celebrate their favorite players. The Major event will also be streamed live to millions of fans at home on multiple streaming platforms, featuring commentary and analysis from the top talent in the CS:GO community.

Tickets will go on sale through Ticketmaster on December 3, 2015.

1. Figured it would be in Columbus. That was always their go-to location
2. Multiple streaming platforms. Knew that was coming, Valve wouldn't have been happy with 50k viewers for a major*

* = except Dota. Laughable viewership is ok for a game with 3 million united states dollar major tournament.

From the three 2015 Major Championships, professional CS:GO players and organizations earned more than $9 million through tournament prizes and sticker sales.

Katowice 2015 = 1.5 million in sticker money
Cologne 2015 = 4.2 million
Which means Dreamhack Cluj had around 3.3 million.

Hopefully sticker sales can maintain this, because IMO the guaranteed 3 million prize pool for Dota is better than a "lets hope everyone buys shitty stickers" approach

 

[MayMay]

Go OG, don't let your dreams be dreams and fuck up these Team Secret suckersssss

oh. wrong thread.

 

[chessnut]

anyone find it a bit ridiculous that the prize pools are only 250k and valve keeps HALF of the sticker money? I get that stickers wouldn't even be there if it wasn't for valve, but taking 50% of a player's signature is just a little too greedy imo.

anyway, I'm probably going to columbus. anyone else?

50% is fair. IIRC Dota compendium for TI is only 25% to the prize pool. I just hate fact that sticker money goes directly to players instead of the prize pool.
