MvP Invitational Coming

Major League Gaming, the Korean eSports Association and the International eSports Group are joining forces to bring us a truly extraordinary eSports tournament very soon: The MLG vs Proleague (MvP) Invitational. The MvP Invitational will assemble 48 of the world’s finest StarCraft II players from North America, South Korea, and Europe, to do battle against one another on the world stage.

In the coming weeks, these players will jockey for position, ultimately competing for an expenses paid trip to compete at the MLG Fall Championship in Dallas, Texas in November, and the $10,000 cash prize. The action starts on September 24, and matches will be aired weekly.

More information on this exciting event is coming soon. Tune in to the MLG site for details.

This sounds too pumped up for a grand prize of $10k. How can you say you'll assemble the "world's finest from North America, South Korea, and Europe" when most of these players won't even be worth their time for this grand prize.

@RabbSifu: Its not always about the money. Its about proving you're the best. Plus the trip is all expenses paid: the flight, accommodation, and food - that adds up to thousands of dollars to bring 48 people to this thing. Thats a lot.

@wsLegolas: $10k first place prize, a seed into MLG Championship, and an expenses paid trip to Dallas from Korea -- plenty of incentive, and if I was the team owner and my player earned the trip, I'd give the player a bonus equal to the amount of the trip
