In 2005 the banking company ShinHan, which is based out of Korea, sponsored the OGN StarLeagues. With much success they will sponsor the OGN StarLeagues in 2006 as well. Will this year's OSL be as great as last years? We don't know yet, but we sure as hell will find out.
In 2005 OGN had a very successful StarLeague year. Due to their success they landed their same sponsor from 2005, to this year, 2006. ShinHan Bank is a very nice banking company based in Korea. As to any sponsorship there will be benefits, oh the benefits.
Sponsorship of 3 OGN StarLeagues ShinHan Master's Tournament 1st Place $40,000 2nd Place $20,000 |
The ShinHan Master's Tournament, will be basically, kick ass. ShinHan will gather the top players from the sponsored OGN StarLeagues and from there the gamers will play in all out battle to see who the master is.
Overall for the StarLeagues the prize money has doubled, which is fantastic for the gamers. And all together the prize money will be $120,000
So there you have it, ShinHan Bank StarLeague (OGN) and than you have the Pringle's StarLeague (MSL).
