Wow! That's sick, more collaboration between different parts of the community is awesome.

I figure since it's relevant, I'll self-plug once again:

Well actually I guess it doesn't matter that much, but I don't really like it when ESPORTS > fairness

Maybe the players would miss tourneys while doing the show and this is to make up for that. I can't imagine they're doing it for more submissions, I doubt they had trouble getting enough.

The production of the show is only a week long.

Most majors llast 2 to 3 days and usually have over 100 entries per game with a fraction of prize pool offered in comparison to his week long production.

I'll say this is reality show is far more attractive than an average major.
Fame, fortune, and swag! Cook that wonton soup!

Another CGS/CXG failure in the works. This is America, no one cares to watch tournaments like it's some form of reality television; this isn't Asia. I'm sure whoever wins will be happy but this is just a waste of money and sponsors for an event that won't further the FGC in anyway besides lining the pockets of a few select few who are already at the top of the mountain.
