UPDATE - LEGACY GAMING NETWORK - SAULT STE. MARIE, ON - DECEMBER 23, 2009 - SPOTLIGHT 2010 EVENT

The Legacy Gaming Network is proud to re-announce the event details for the originally post-poned Spotlight 2009 Event. With the ability of being able to originally push back the event, the Legacy Gaming Network was able to provide a better gaming/expo tournament for its spectators, exhibitors and participants.

The Legacy Gaming Network also has made several changes to the event to ensure that the event is as much of a success as we have planned. The venue location has not changed; The Legacy Gaming Network has removed QuakeLive out of the equation as there was poor turnout. Secondly, the Counter-Strike 1.6 prize purse has been increased to $9,000 Canadian Dollars in order to attract some of America's top tier teams. Therefore prize distribution has changed as well.

Counter-Strike 1.6 Prizes

1st: C$5,000

2nd: C$2,000

3rd: C$1500

4th: C$500

5th-8th: Product from Sponsors and Supporters

The tournament will be a double elimination event where each day of the event a specific part of the braket will be played. Friday, the upper bracket will be played. Followed by the lower bracket being played on the Saturday and the finals being carried over to the Sunday; the final day of the event.

We have also added a social night where companies, participants and spectators can mingle and get to know one another. This will allow for top gaming teams the opportunity to meet and greet with North America's top gaming companies, allowing fans the opportunity to meet their favorite North American players and Exhibitors the opportunity to find who will be their next big investment. The maps for the event will be announced two weeks prior to the event, allowing all teams a fair chance to prepare for the event as much as possible. At this point the event schedule will be announced as well.

The event will be providing HLTV's to allow for spectators to watch and the event will have its very own produced and directed stream where interviews, matches and updates will be announced. Through this stream spectators will have the ability to spectate while a match commentary will be provided by a match caster. This lucky individual will be announced as the event comes closer.

As for event rules, everyone participating or spectating the event will be obliged to follow. These rules will be posted the same day of the map list and bracket announcements.

The event has gathered up a great amount of event supporters and exhibitors. To see the current list of Exhibitors and supporters click Here. Stay tuned as more supporters and exhibitors will be announced as the event comes closer.
