We start our new content at the same time every day, and that's 17:00 PDT (-07:00). The re-broadcasts always begin at 09:30 PDT (-07:00).

  • Monday: IPL TV
  • Tuesday: IPL Team Arena
  • Wednesday: IPL TV
  • Thursday: IPL 2 Main Event
  • Friday: IPL 2 Main Event
  • Saturday: IPL 2 Main Event
  • Sunday: IPL 2 Main Event

So, Monday and Wednesday are IPL TV. There are roughly two hours of new, live casts of viewer submitted and pro replays, before we begin airing content that you may have seen before either from previous IPL TV shows or IPL 2 Main Event games.

Tuesdays are IPL Team Arena, which is our winner's style king of the hill weekly team showmatch. Those games are cast live until they are completed, then re-aired content.

Thursday through Sunday, again starting at 17:00 PDT (-07:00), are main event games and the calendar has always been available at http://www.ign.com/ipl/starcraft2/calendar

The eSports division of IGN Entertainment is happy to announce IGN Pro League season two, offering an expanded player pool and a USD $50,000 prize pool. This comes following the success of the first season, an invitational tournament that exemplified the quality of IPL players and demonstrated high production value. In season two, the IPL will be broadening the player pool with an open qualifier to include competitors from the North American, South American and European servers. The top four players from season one have received automatic qualifier spots for season two. The remaining 28 spots will be awarded through IGN’s open qualifier system, powered by Z33K. Z33K, a tournament web service, will maintain the IPL qualifiers and ensure it is a smooth and efficient process.

The goal of the IGN eSports division is to provide a professional, polished viewing experience to fans of eSports while supporting the development of eSports globally through a sustainable tournament system that rewards its players. IPL 2 will be the first full-fledged StarCraft II tournament for IGN Entertainment; the aim is to repeat success and grow out eSports at IGN and beyond.

I would also like to preemptively say that do not regard the lack of a caster or casters we used last time as saying we are not going to use them. We have brought on PainUser and CatsPajamas as IGN employees and that is why they are listed, we have not made deals with our other casters yet!

The IGN eSports team will pick a group of commentators for each event and issue each caster a media package with overlay graphics for the live stream. As an added bonus, we will select one caster each day to be the featured IPL commentator, meaning that the caster will gain the privilege of having their cast streamed on www.ign.com/ipl on the IPL justin.tv channel in exchange for promotion on our website.

I don't understand this. Some people get chosen to cast, but it isn't livestreamed? It's just VOD uploaded?

Great, very good idea with qualifiers, but kinda sad it will be on NA server only.
Nothing to add.

Sorry Chill I didn't make that very clear. Everyone who gets chosen to stream the qualifiers are totally free to stream on their channels, and we'll pick one person to stream on the IPL channel.

Really like this open qualifier format. Should result in better players getting in.

Also, an open call for casters? Interesting.

Make sure the GSL maps are the latest versions!! Why no Terminus SE instead of RE they've been using that for a while now?

It clearly says North America, South America and Europe in the post.

It seems that the games are only played on NA tho.
