What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Just ask your money.

But seriously that kind of sucks, though most airlines you can get partial refund or at least credit / bonus miles.
If nothing else, it's a weekend at Vegas I guess.

Most airlines will let you cancel a nonrefundable ticket and use the value of it as credit for another flight within a year of the original travel date. You may have to pay a change fee to do this, which can be in the $100 range, but it's a preferable alternative to being out the money entirely with nothing to show for it.

It's pretty clear the reason for IPL jumping in was that they thought the SC2 audience was going to expand (hence their projected profits in a few years).

However, the SC2 audience has decreased over time (which is why they pushed back their profitability goals and ultimately have cancelled their league).

That's potentially a reason to stop running events in the future, not a reason to cancel an event so close to its live date, after dumping a stupidly massive amount of money into it.

You're on the wrong page.

Depends on the owner. If you're a new owner, and you see a department you bought has lost money for two straight years in a shrinking market, you don't care what's boiling on the stove right now. You might want to throw the entire kitchen out.

So Esports have been shrinking for the two past years? You might wanna clarify that a bit O_o

You guys put on some awesome events. Sad to see you go, don't know why the community didn't respect IPL like some of the other major events. It was well run with high production value.

Thank you for putting out quality content, and for your commitment to the starcraft scene.

Either way, Europe comes to the rescue again (prior incidences are Axiom taking all ex-Slayers under their wing and the same with Azubu with all the ex-oGs).

Entirely, irrefutably true. SirScoots is known as a trustworthy source, reporting such events as 'IPL have decided to move their league to the moon.'

Yeah, SC2 is going to die. In 10-15 years.


Rofl, the only reason that people still play SC2 is because of the BW legacy, that wont keep the game alive when the next big RTS drops.

Command & Conquer will be the next BW, is what you're saying?
