Major League Gaming has sold "substantially all" of its assets to Activision Blizzard for the price of $46 million, effectively bringing about an end to the esports company as it was once known. That's according to a report from esportsobserver.com, which says MLG called a special meeting on December 21 where the company's board of directors authorized a sale to the Call of Duty and World of Warcraft company.

As part of this change, MLG CEO Sundance DiGiovanni has reportedly exited the company, replaced in that role by Greg Chisholm. He was previously the CFO of MLG. MLG co-founder Mike Sepso left the company earlier this year and now works as an executive for Activision's newly formed esports division.

Like the article goes on to say, Call of Duty and Halo were eventually the main games played. While I don't think it would be wise, Activision could put more emphasis on these titles. I still think that the main games showcased should be League of Legends, DOTA 2, Starcraft and bigger games like these because they attract the most attention and have the most fans. I do think that we will be seeing a big shift in the esports industry as the deal progresses. This could be a good or bad thing, depending on what type of games you like.

One thing's for certain though: rip Smash Bros.

(lol this was when I was checking the post for errors and copied and pasted it from MW.)
