So I was going to write a huge rant post about how this was the worst decision in years to pick up WoW. But I realized that now I am actually relevant here now None. Now that doesn't mean I am gonna let MLG off the hook totally, because the way they announced this only a month in advanced ,and are not going to let us see the rules before the date of registration opening(May 15th) is not cool for anybody.

I totally understand why they are having 32 teams only though, since I am assuming they are  going to run this in either 4 team pools or double elimination.
Maybe after they get 2 events under their belt they might expand it by the time it gets here to Dallas in October. 3v3 is also a good choice, but it will be interesting to see how they run character setup, since WSVG was notorious for the issues with that last year.

Overall its a win-win for everyone. WoW gets a real circut again with good prize money (22,250 in total), easy acess stops(San Diego, Orlando and Dallas), and I get more hits None. Pretty good deal for everyone isn't it?
And yes, We will cover WoW now, but I need to relearn arena so I can do a decent job of it.

Here are the basics if you cant bother to hit the link<---

* Kick-off event: MLG San Diego, June 13-15th
* Other stops: MLG Orlando, July 11th-13th and MLG Dallas, October 3-5.
* Official PC Circuit game: World of Warcraft®: The Burning Crusade®
* Format: 3-vs-3 - more details on rules and the official format will be released on May 15th.
* Total spots available: 32 teams
* Prizes: $22,500 per event
