this guy provides awesome fodder

Just an FYI, we prefer that more of our community gets to be involved in special events we do. This is not to say those prize pools are bad (quite amazing actually) or that they aren't impactful on their respective games. However, I think it is safe to say that SIGNIFICANTLY more people will be positively impacted by a HoN Double Coin Weekend than those combined 6.8 million dollars [prize pools combined from DotA2 and LoL].
HoN has a competitive program launching soon (HoN Tour) and it will have a significant prize pool and will have an open, deep group of players/teams who will be involved. We find that more exciting and hope everyone else does as well.
