MPGL enters Season 4 with $16,000 prize pool
Renowned for being the "G-League" of the Philippines, the Mineski Pro-Gaming League (MPGL) is proud to announce the beginning of its fourth season sponsored by Gigabyte and organized by Mineski - a $16,000 prizepool awaits all its Filipino participants.
Today marks another new and exciting year for e-sports, as we once again host together with our official partner Gigabyte and our official gaming gear Razer the yearly Mineski Pro-Gaming League.
G-MPGL will still send representatives to SMM 2012, as we have done so for the past 2 years. The performance of last year's PH representative: MI.PColor, placing 3rd on SMM 2011 is proof that this simple 10-month league truly has helped PH teams grow stronger as they prepare to face their international counterparts.
I'm sure everyone is excited to see this event once again. So in behalf of the whole Mineski Organization and Mineski Events Team we welcome you to GMPGL 2012!
The new season will follow the classic points system adopted by previous seasons along with a class S/A system that separates the Filipino scene into tiers allowing for fair competition. Adding to that, special awards will also be given to the 'Captain of the Year', 'Carry of the Year' and 'Farmer of the Year', among other titles.
Running from February 2012 to late October, expect to see teams such as Mineski.PColor and TheNet.Execration battle it out for top dollar and the chance to represent Philippines at this year's SMM Grand National.
For more information on the specific dates of each event and their respective prize pools, visit the official announcement by Mineski.net.

GG  |
let's get this war started!!!!!!!!  |
| So it begins, the road to SMM 2012. \m/ |
| Another war of bottle crows. Exciting... not Good luck to all anyway. |
| @12 Your not excited because your not joining |
| @12 Not every team in PH is doing Bottle+Crow now. |
| It's nice that they included DotA 2 in the games so that Filipinos can practice. And LOL@ using HBO's 24/7 voice  |
| im tired of watching dota2 and dota1 china tourneys which picks same heroes everytime, hoping to see non top games but rather interesting games to watch specially from non top teams of the world, kudos for mpgl. |
| GL MI |
| Tell me guys, this coming SMM it will be Dota2 right? |
Pretty IMBA tourney  _________________________________________ |
| Next time invite SEA or international teams It will be fun Huge Prizepool  |
Oh.. Nice Tournament indeed  BTW, What map are they going to use/play? |
| yeah, i think next SMM is dota2 already. hmmm i hate to see another blue screen @ SMM with dota1 |
| @#22 SMM last year had issues with their sponsors.. They already made an early contract for the computers that will be used that time around April.. But sad to say, about 2 weeks before the SMM, their sponsors backed out due to the flooding on Thailand which the sponsors are from.. With no other sponsors able to provide them with the necessary computer set, they rent nearby computer cafe computers.. So that's why they had blue screens and issues.. Hope this wont happen again.. Good luck to all teams.. GL HF.. |
| holy jesus! that prize pool in the Philippines is already considered a fortune... Ph Dota seems to be very flourishing and active |
| I hope this PH have an all star team XD PH.Allstar |
| Nice tournament.. |
| Good luck to all that's gonna participate! Nice to hear that pinoys make an effort to make DotA alive in their country. |
| When is the live stream? |
| we all know that this year SMM will be DOTA2. *facepalm* |
| am i the only one who thinks that SMM will be on dota2 instead of dota1? |
| The Ph scene should focus more on DOTA 2, instead of spending prize pools in DOTA 1, because we all know that DOTA 2 keeps on getting bigger and bigger. while DOTA 1 keeps on sinking. In just couple of months DOTA 1 would be dead and DOTA 2 will be on the spotlight.. hmmm. well, I hope Rhome will do something about this, anyway In RHOME I trust. haha |
| DOTA 2 will also be featured in this tourney... but DOTA, i noticed, is the main feature.. prbbly because most Pinoy doesnt have a DOTA 2 game yet.. so atm, the organizers feed their participant's battle hunger with DOTA.. |
| So Mineski is getting $16,000 in a few days? Or there are other teams challenging for it? |
| #32 lol only WHEN!! china turns to dota 2 and PH will follow, mski is up for the challenge we all know dota1 dominated by china.. they have a dream and thats something yet for them to prove in dota1 kinda impossible but not the same as EU who just turn their backs to that challenge and focus on dota2 instead, there is a time for dota2 thats when the game is stable but not now i still believes that compitation in dota1 is still the better thatn dota2, dota2 maybe in EU.. and if MPGL will be played in dota2 we all know not all has the beta keys think about hundreds of teams joining this event.. and MPGL host dota2 also btw but not the main event.. thanks to mineski bcuz of them ESPORTS in PH rocks!!! |
| #34, i still have to confirm it, but i think its the total prize pool of a months long tournament.. |
| I won't be suprise if MI will not reach top3.. Xctn, KVG, IPT Revitalize with Ewe are the top contenders.. I want to see Jay n Julz in action thou.. |
| Cheer,filipinos!More prize pool nutures stronger teams.The result of 2011 SMM has told all the things. |
| EPIC. |
| Impressive prize pool to say. $16,000 is equivalent to roughly P688,000. Wondering where Mineski got the money, is it from SMM? Adding to that, special awards will also be given to the 'Captain of the Year', 'Carry of the Year' and 'Farmer of the Year' IMO it's stupid to even think about a 'Farmer of the Year' award. it's like bluntly saying 'Player Who Does Nothing To Help The Team But Just Farms Creeps' award. It should just be one with 'Carry of the Year' since Carry Heroes are synonymous with heavy farm anyway. 'Support of the Year' should be given more focus instead. |
| Tournaments keep a game and its community of players and fans alive |
| epic performance by Jay using WR..lol exe got pwned by shackleshots |
| I will need to move to pinoy country :O |
| looks GOOOOOOOOOOD .Gl Ph teams and I hope Julz will attend so no crying |
| Finals MI vs Revitalize... Revatilze was leading but the pc got DC... Full of actions!!! |
| Revitalize FTW! nice one Guys! beating Mi.PC.! Respect to you guys! well deserved win .. :D |
| GG called Number 8th seeded team defeated the 1st seeded team... Revitalize defeated MI and becoming the first GMPGL 2012 champion, the score is 2-0 twice to beat advantage by MI.... It was a close match till the end but Revitalize has too many disables, hex, stun, eul's, ethereal blade, etc that MI didn't counter... Julz biggest mistake is not buying BKB countering the disables instead he goes for MKB... I guess MI focused too much on dps while Revitalize countered with disables... Congratz Revitalize for an upset win beating MI twice in the finals... I think MI bit underestimated Revitalize causing them the game beating them at ease in the early stages but Revitalize adopted and countered MI gaming style by using too many disables... Santino new face in PH dota |
| revitalize beats MI.. newbloods.. nice game.. 2-0 in favor of Revitalize.. |
| #48 they're not new bloods. lol. they are professional players. ewe,santino and other old intra players |
| Leg 1 Results Revitalize - Champion MI.PowerColor - 1st Place Sweetopia - 2nd Place TnC.Xctn - 3rd Place |
