That's a good point. In fact, no matter whether it is money tourney, Viper will play his best. But for all the others, this is a different story. At the beginning of this GML, no one knows whether there is some prize pool, then players like daut, chris, tim will lost their motivation. Of course, they will still play in this GML, but I doubt how much effort they put here!!! If some (big maybe) prize pool has been announced before the GML, I believe everyone in the league will take serious (except Viper who is always be serious, ).I really think that some of players performance was directly related to the amount of prize money .Like they will not consume much of time like chris ,for no motivation (pool undecided and no information is given out as the host really doesnt knows himself ) .So the results were not tempting .Say if prize money is 5000$ ,winner takes all .I bet people like chris and daut would have trained much more .But for no money no one feel motivated .
As someone said on the forum "if prize money is none or undecided viper will win but if prize money is decided and good enough i would fancy daut".
So the haywire approach of not telling the prize money or not knowing himself ,rather be the case ....thats what i didnt like it .Coz it really didnt tell us who is the best among them (which was main motive which this tourney was set).
definitely you are wrong, I know there is at least ONE think this is a no money tournament.before joining gml EVERYONE knew that it would have a GOOD money prize, so dont come with no money no practice because it doesnt apply here.
I myself would not play if there was no money involved because i'm just too busy with university and other stuffs, i'm sure it apply for more people, not just me.
11,i mean the player, not fans...the only one wrong or naive here is you.
lies, you are pikachubefore joining gml EVERYONE knew that it would have a GOOD money prize, so dont come with no money no practice because it doesnt apply here.
