Recently iRip have been taking a leap with sponsoring the e-sports scene with Starcraft 2, in particular the HDH Invitational #1 <ref>http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=118879</ref> with a prize pool supported of $2,500. They have also supported [[Husky (commentator)|Husky]] and [[HD (commentator)|HDStarcraft]] in show matches such as the Day9 vs Tasteless show. The e-sports scene has always been huge in Korea, and with groups like The Little App Factory supporting more Western competition this could pave the way for a more dominant role of e-sports out-with Korea.
