fuck yeah ;)
prepare to fight!
why et winner get only 500?
since ET players tend to not play in ESL ladders but tourney.cc or CB cups its already hard enough to argument for ET within a prizemoney competition :)

It has already improved within the last years but can still improve ;=)
Parent
who plays DoD:S...? Seriously, cut that league out and give their prizemoney to ET, it would be a much better use of the cash :P
Parent
DoD:Source has more active teams than ET in the ESL
Parent
typical, only payout going in ET right now & its not good enough
Parent

Because CS scene is a few times bigger than any other?
