I don´t like idea of crowd founded tournament with RELIC CHOSEN AND PAID casters (I love you stormless and tightrope btw). It is STUPID that WE FUND the tournament, but THEY CHOSE casters.

Relic should fund their own damn tournaments. They definitely can afford the petty $2k in prizes with all the milking they've done for the past 3 years. Crowd funding should be for small indie studios or (like an Insurgency tournament) or community hosted events. Developers have incentives to host tournaments for the publicity, and if the community pays for it you're essentially paying for Relics advertisement.

Another good reason. What if they selected casters you don't like, eg. Krebs :foreveralone: and how would you feel knowing that some of your money would be going towards paying them if you donated

I don't see the problem, we get to buy cool skins, the skins creators get some cash and we also get a tournament.

It is all very well saying a developer should fund a tournament, but there are always forces unseen which dictate these things.

It's not crowd funding (i.e. donating), it's people buying content and some of it goes towards tournaments. The financial model of curated skins has been this way since they were first announced. Where do you think Relic's money comes from? And do you really think it's terrible that they are incentivising the sale of content created by community members?

Community-sourced content generation is a proven and effective way to provide ongoing financial support for this type of thing. Game sales drop off substantially after all.
