Hello everyone! IGN Pro League will be hosting an event at South by Southwest or SXSW in Austin, Texas this year! We will be part of the Interactive portion of the event at ScreenBurn. ScreenBurn is the name of their video game culture exhibition, and you can read more about it here: http://sxsw.com/interactive/screenburn/arcade ScreenBurn is free and open to the public on March 9th - 11th so please come and join us for an awesome time!

What is IPL doing there? Well, we are going to have a huge, LIVE showmatch right in the middle of everything, featuring ten of your favorite players. The top five players in each of these two polls right here will be flown out to Austin, Texas by us to play in a live best of 3 showmatch for $5,000 worth of prizes. First place will receive $4,000, and second place will receive $1,000. Hopefully that's enough on the line for just one series that the winning players will put on one heck of a show.

Head over to http://esports.ign.com/lol/sxsw and place your votes (Five per person per coast! Pick your favorites!) before midnight Pacific Standard Time on Friday, January 20th! That's when the voting ends. Our ten players with the most votes at that time will be flown in to take part in an unforgettable live showmatch! Please leave any questions, comments, and discussion here, as we'll all be reading and eagerly watching as the poll progresses!

Also, don't forget to remind them about promoting this poll! If you really want to see your favorite player, they will need to tell their stream viewers and fans about it!

VOTE LINK: http://esports.ign.com/lol/sxsw

Just as an FYI / Disclaimer: IEM World Championships in Germany are the same weekend as South by Southwest. If our poll winners decide to attend that event, we will go down the list by votes received until we have five players on each side that can attend. Team SoloMid and Counter Logic Gaming are attending the event, and other players may still qualify in the future.

Also, don't forget that IPL Killing Spree between Goose and Counter Logic Gaming is on Thursday, January 12th at 01:00 GMT (+00:00), so don't miss it! http://www.twitch.tv/ipllol

Nope, sorry. Just NA for now, but we really, really want to start expanding to Europe and Asia similar to the way we handled our growing StarCraft 2 tournaments.

How come so many notable players are missing? I have a hard time believing nobody from e.g. CLG or TSM got nominated.

This tournament is the same day as the IEM grand finals

TSM and CLG have already qualified to that tournament.

Real

I like how I get warned for using "skill toi have" in GD, but here you are using the "real" meme as a one-liner. "Real" consistency.

The thing you quoted reads as if players who are in the event would've still been in the list to be voted in, but if they chose not to attend the next person on the list would've been picked. This is especially relevant if it were to happen that one or more of them were to back out of IEM.

Just curious, as someone who is not too familiar with the competitive LoL scene, does IPL have daily broadcasts for LoL as well? How is viewership for these broadcasts?
