Today, Team Ascension is extremely proud to announce that we will be acquiring a majority of the (Wiki)IvDgaming roster and staff.

Since their inception, IvD have been a paragon of what a well-run team should be. From hosting dozens of public tournaments to supporting a roster of extremely talented players, it goes without saying that their impact on the scene will be long lasting.


Before meeting the IvD players and staff, I was pretty nervous in that I didn't know quite what to expect. I quickly learned that they are a group of realistic and down to earth individuals, traits that I personally try to instill within Team Ascension. Above all, I'm extremely honored that after deliberation, IvD's players and staff decided to make TA their new home. I've always held IvD in the highest regards as one of the few organizations that treated their members right and gave back to the scene. I will be doing all I can to make sure TA meet the expectations of all its members, new and old.

Travis "AprilTerran" Yang
Team Ascension General Manager


IvD Gaming had a great run. We went from a rag-tag bunch of guys to being a premier NA team. Sadly, today we have to close our doors. To be as cliché as possible, it was a hell of a ride! We would especially like to thank all of our fans who supported us through thick and thin. I love all of our players, past and present, dearly and we will all cherish our time under the IvD flag. After a lot of discussion and consideration we have decided to stay together but to go ahead and move down the block. The remaining IvD players and myself will be moving in with our good friends over at Team Ascension. We would all like to thank them for giving us all a new home (<3). Together, I know, we will succeed as never before!

David "Dyne" Lujan
IvDgaming Professional SC2 Manager


Super excited about welcoming back some old friends and inviting in some new ones. Our 2015 is already off to a great start, and now we're fortunate enough to add in some great players with unique playstyles and personalities. I'm certain of one thing this year: there will never be a dull moment.

Nick "Kamker" McGregor
Team Ascension A Team Captain


It should come as no surprise that IvD was struggling a bit after it was announced that intense, Phog, and puCK had left the team in recent months with no new acquisitions. Rather than trying to rebuild our squad from the ground up we chose to join forces with an organization that has similar goals to IvD - provide a good environment and as much support for players as possible while looking for every opportunity they can to make a splash in the scene. I hope everyone who supported IvD will continue supporting us and the rest of Team Ascension in the future!

Nick "Pokebunny" Taber
IvDgaming


Now lets get into the details. Here are the players that will be joining our family!

Thanks to everyone for the continued support! We will continue giving it our all of our players and fans.

Hello,

I love you guys!!! as a proud member of IvD for a while i can say that even we had it hard we were a close family! I want to thank both Dyne and Brian for there amazing work and there time they put in IvD, nobody i know so far has put as much dedication, time, love and effort into making a team running like you two did as well as being open for everyone who had issue's or questions. Brian and Dyne have been a guide for most of us! To everyone else of IvD i want to thank you guys for making it an awesome experience, one that'll be in my memory for ever!

I also want to say that i am proud of everyone who has been a part of IvD gaming. Intense, Puck, Massan, Phog, Arium,.. even though you guys left us for various reasons you have been a part of the family we had!

I hope for everyone that from IvD goes to ascension will be doing it with a smile and a tear due you open a new chapter, but close an other one!.

May i see you guys in the future!

<3's and hugs from me!

I could say a lot of mean things to the majority of the players on this new combined squad but I'll just leave it vague like this.

Good luck, it's good to at least see one of the few NA teams sending people places.

For the second sentence.
Both serve a purpose. If anything, you could think of it as a free bump.

Lol? You are so condescending in all of your posts and they serve no purpose, have you ever heard the saying your mother used to tell you? "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all?"

Yea. Grow up.

Woah woah buddy, calm down. I'm quite sure in my first post in your thread I agreed completely with you, before that I never even remember speaking directly to you on this forum so.... But hey, for whatever reason you just seem to hate me, which is fine I guess l0l o:

For a list of all my condescending posts feel free to look at the content I have been supplying in the LotV thread or some of the guides I have posted. Clearly they serve no purpose, I guess?

I have had quite a few "unique" interactions with many of the players on this team, I used to play quite a bit after all. So of course I will say something if I feel compelled to do so. If the players don't want these sorts of post to come to light then maybe they shouldn't act how they do to absolutely everyone they meet. I mean, they are players that represent an organization.

Wise words from the late Christopher Hitchens:

“If someone tells me that I’ve hurt their feelings I’m still waiting to hear what your point is.”

Whoa, that's a big shake-up in the NA power structure. Grats to TAsc and their new players, they've run a stable organization for quite some time, and hopefully Yogi left it all on good terms.
The world is better when every background has a chance.
