I think prize money can be a good thing. We can see easily that sponsored tournaments brought sc:bw, wc3:tft and even dota to a new level of competition and popularity. Why?
1. People will play tournaments if they fell like having at least a little shot for the money. They will show up if there is anything at stake. They will organise themself better if there is anything at stake. They might even train certain combinations of players/tanks.
2. It's way easier to advertise a game with good functioning tournaments with prizes. It's a good way to promote Battletanks on pupular sites like readmore, fragster, inwc, gosugamers. People can actually see then that there is an active btanks community and it might be good for anyone who is interestend in the game from pubs to seek this community.

Quote:such a tournament should be announced in the Battle Tanks version with a corresponding date and channel to meet for the teams or somekind of link where they can sign up and build up teams.Promoting such a tournament in advance as soon as there is a fixed date by the map and popular sites seemes obvious to me.
