This solves all ETF2L problems such as:

1. Money. A good cash prizes rather than ETF2L’s anonymous donations (LOL) and small casual donations like mine, Blackout Gaming etc.

2. Fun. Stable unlock rules and map pool rather than ETF2L’s fuckups with Cinamon & cp_obscure.

3. Safe. Good Anticheat rather than Anakin’s handmade plugin.

4. Attractive for mature players and broadcasters. Since now we have only one TF2 TEAM – Epsilon (thanks CanFo & Co for that).

5. LANs.

I dont think anyone will want to send some tf2 players from europe to NA 2 times per year for very small prize pools compared to cs:go even

small?

S14 Invite Division Prize Pot: $13,140
1st place: $6,000
2nd place: $3,360
3rd place: $2,280
4th place: $1,500

if ESEA-EU grew to the point where a global LAN was a reality you’d likely see double those numbers or more

If the same proportion of teams played in ESEA as do in america we’d be twice as big as them too. There’s some real possibility of starting something awesome here.

The prizepool is OK for an american-only lan, if you are talking about that same prizepool for an international lan or even for an european lan it’s simply not worth it. I dont know how esea is gonna sort it if we are sucessfull but I dont see teams having the same costs has the NA teams have to go to lan for example, far more barriers exist here because of all the different countries, incomes, even currrency in some cases.

too small for orgs to send 6 players overseas. yes if the prize pot was doubled then maybe sure, now I doubt it

I don’t get how some of you perceive this as a bad thing.

If you don’t want to pay, don’t play. Even though we pay 50$ in ESEA-Invite at the start of the season we do get a big chunk of our costs payed for LAN. Same for IM and Open which get some nice prize pots.

Also since EU will most likely have a big Open division, your prize pot will be pretty good. Don’t bitch and help TF2 grow.

You don’t get any costs covered for LAN. Not even their main event (CSGO) has support for EU teams, that’s why only one team (NiP) from Europe went to America.

You can get the 4th place prize up front for lan expenses (1500 for tf2 this season i think)

Why are you people arguing with Americans presenting facts from their direct experience in esea. Like honestly what leg do you have to stand on :D.

Come on really, think before you post. Open getting a smaller prize pool is necessary to avoid sandbagging monstrosities and to provide incentive to improve. The idea is to progress up the divs guys! If you take it seriously you won’t be shit forever.

Plus I think IM was the main cashcow.

EDIT: he deleted his post ok then
