The 2006 CPL World Tour Has Been Canceled
The 2006 World Tour organized by the Cyberathlete Professional League (CPL) has been cancelled for 2006, leaving many pro-gamers wondering how to make their lifestyle pay. This is a serious blow for gaming and could be the first major stumble for professional gaming. Let’s see how the gamers and the industry respond.
Although there has been no official announcement from the CPL that the World Tour has been cancelled, the organisation’s founder, Angel Munoz, has said in interviews that it will not now take place. “It is a shame that the CPL World Tour was cancelled. I thought it was a good thing for e-sports,” said Michael O’Dell, manager of the UK’s Team Dignitas. “Pro-gaming has taken a step backwards, for this year at least,” said Philip Wride, one of the managers of the Four-Kings Intel clan.
