YouTube has partnered with IGN Entertainment to launch their own official gaming channel, called START. Given the huge recent success of video livestream websites such as justin.tv, livestream.com and own3d.tv, YouTube are hoping to attract a chunk of the audience with its own broadcast quality content. The online channel will debut in early 2012 and will open by broadcasting the IGN Pro League.

The ASUS Republic of Gamers is an eight-player invitational 
StarCraft II tournament held in 
Helsinki, Finland over the weekend of Saturday 4th-Sunday 6th November. The event will be cast in English by Apollo & TotalBiscuit.

The Battle For Berlin continues tonight with the action from the second round of the Loser Bracket. The competition is really hotting up and after tonight's games we will lose four more hopeful teams from the tournament roster. With the top four seeds all advancing relatively smoothly so far, it's essential for the success of the teams playing tonight that they pick up convincing victories to give them the momentum they will undoubtedly need to take on the top seeds.
