But bro, it is s2's fault ok?
No its not? We had an original list of prizes which weren't as good for HoN, when we got in contact with S2 who helped us provide much better prizes.
S2 has been nothing but fantastic for helping us with this event, its just a shame for this event only, we got in contact so late. We will be able to start locking in and discussing with S2 right from next week for the next event since we now have a relationship.

but srsly, i can understand shinkz not wanting to release any prize info until he had it confirmed. But, fray being the only "decent" team attending, seems kind of fishy to me.
Fair call, but shinkz has had nothing to do with the release of prize list, or even the schedule. I have consulted him a few times, and he has been a great help in format and when I wanted to just double check something with someone from the HoN community.
AFAIK, shinkz may have had a 1-2 days headstart in knowing what the original prizes were before S2 got on board, and 1-2 days before I published the new prizes with S2's involvement. For the first half of January, he kept telling me that Fray probs wouldent be attending, and he may or may not (he only would be because we are friends and sometimes work with each other) be attending himself. When Fray made the decision to attend, it was in the same boat as anyone else, no knowledge of if there would even be prizes for HoN, no knowledge of who else was going, but I guess they decided at the time, it would be fun at least anyway.
