The IGN Professional League will host their first live event later this year and boast a "over a six figure prize pool", a source close to the IPL revealed today. The tournament will span a four-day period and competitors will be selected through online qualifiers as well as an open bracket at the event. The dates and location have yet to be released, but the venue will be on the East coast.
There will be two new games also. One obvious guess includes HoN. This all adds up to the news from months ago being, if anything, a bit of an understatement.

Awesome! Looking forward to the event. IPL fighting!

great. The more live events the better. I always find live-lan events most exciting.
And having a crowd at the place is always amazing.

really don't see how IGN is creating a sustainable business with their venture into e-sports
NASL has lots of commercials and subscribers
MLG has plenty of different methods of monetizing their event
IGN has what? stream commercials? is IGN trying to set up something similar to MLG?
