 League Speak with Sundance: First Doritos MLG Pro-Gaming Combine Event DetailsMLG Co-Founder Sundance DiGiovanni delivers the goods on the first Doritos MLG Combine event of 2010.With each new season, the competition gets more intense, the audience grows by leaps and bounds, and the league’s exposure reaches new heights. This incredible growth happens for two reasons: 1) because we have a phenomenal community that is dedicated to seeing its passion reach its full potential through MLG; and 2) because along with our partners, we are continually taking steps to broaden the horizons of competitive gaming. One of our big steps this year, made possible by Doritos, is to create a new path for players to go pro with MLG. This is the Doritos MLG Pro-Gaming Combine. The Combine offers what so many of you have been asking for: a clear way for amateur players to shine and prove that they have what it takes to make it to the MLG Main Stage. Prior to each Regular Season Pro Circuit Live Competition will be a corresponding Doritos Pro-Gaming Combine.
