I couldn't help but relate this event to the American economy.
Legacy Money is when someone has so much capital that it's possible for their children, their children's children, and then some to never have to work due to the amount of capital that was originally invested in their corporation.
The differences between the top 10 rewards compared to the top 1,000 rewards are obviously significantly different, with good reason. Time and money are direct corellations to this.
Fight Club admittedly used a good amount of RL cash to invest in the Syndicate event. I'm sure the top 100 teams did. Hell, we finished 576 and a few of us used money to get there (we were a random invite Syndicate so I think we did alright, all things considered).
Now that Fight Club, and even the top 10 for that matter, have reaped the benefits of their initial investment, when the next Syndicate event rolls around, won't there be a pretty significant advantage due to the rewards gained from the first Syndicate battle?
After the next Syndicate battle, if Fight Club wins that as well with their initial advantage, won't this continue to get progressively worse, 1%-er style?
The initial response might be that I'm bitter because I didn't have a lot of money to put into the event, which might be true. What I'm more worried about is after my Syndicate gets their act together, cleans up the non-performers and invests in people who in turn invest in the Syndicate that it might be too little too late.
Am I exaggerating the rewards? Am I not really seeing what's going on up-top since our Syndicate was nowhere close?
I haven't played MW so I can't relate at all as this is my first "event" of this caliber.
