Well, well, if the convention got shut down there ain't a single thing you can do

Poor carmac, he works so hard every time, sucks to be shut down without even having a choice.

Well, that escalated quickly.

Very bad news, especially for the qualified players. They could give them some IEM points at least.

IEM doesn't pay full flights usually though, I get the feeling some of the korean/chinese players only played qualifiers because they knew they could make up the difference of IEM's travel stipend cheaply since the event was geographically close. Even if IEM invited them to the next event in wherever, I dunno if they could afford it (or get visas, especially for the chinese players).


There is even no Chinese qualifier for IEM Guangzhou because ESL China is literally, shit.

This sucks, but I can understand the decision.

I'm really hoping that this won't affect WCS Asia/WCS Grand Finals

Unfortunate news, why don't they move the even to Taiwan instead?!?! The location is close to China and I don't see any Taiwanese getting involved in the Chinese / Japanese conflict at all!! Just a thought...

I guess they could retreat to something else. Enough money from the "producer"

Really sad, but i don't know why this can be played out online instead. This would mean much less fun and also an smaller price pool, but at least it wouldn't make the whole qualifiers worthless!!

There are two sides to this issue. Neither country is free of guilt.

All over a small, rather inconsequential series of islands. Lets just say no one gets the Diaoyu Islands and get on with the Esports.
