Major League Gaming (or MLG for short) is hosting its first-ever Winter StarCraft II event this weekend, February 24-26 in New York City. The event will feature 32 StarCraft players from across the world, including Nestea, Idra, MarineKing, Artist, and Leenock, winner of MLG Providence.
Viewers can tune in via Pay-Per-View in HD at a price of $20 for the entire weekend; if you’re an MLG Gold member, you can knock off $5. Demo streams can be viewed on MLG’s site and passes can be purchased here.
Locations for MLG events this year are still TBD, however dates have been set for June 8-10, August 24-26, and November 2-4, 2012. Here’s hoping that there’s one near me!
