Thats great. certainly for the older players.

If the scholarship was 25,000 than with dirty math that would make it around $17,500 after taxes.

I'm glad they are offering cash outs. I think it will be good for the game.

That will surely attract more older players, it's a good thing<3

I hope the TCG Balances itself out a bit soon. If the game was more balanced, it would definitely attract more people. Either way this is good for both TCG and VGC

Does this include travel stipends?

Does this include travel stipends?

It mentions scholarships specifically. So since stipends are intended to bring you to Worlds, I'd assume they are not included.

Isn't Worlds the only event that offers cash rewards for top finishers?
