Esports Order, one of Australia’s most popular teams, is facing tough times. Marc Edwards, a former Melbourne Demons executive, took over as CEO, while Jason Peterson and Harry Karelis of CPS Capital and the Gemelli Group oversaw the raising of that money. ORDER’s board also included Karelis. The records show that the company is currently under external administration.
Dream hack Masters, one of the biggest Counter-Strike Global Offensive tournaments of the year, is just weeks away. ORDER was scheduled to compete in the event but whether or not they will be able to do so is unclear at this time.
Announcement
Many in the CEO esports sector were shocked to learn that ORDER would go bankrupt. Industry experts have expressed worry that the presence of a dark order will negatively impact other organizations in the region.
There was concern that if one of the area’s most well-known organizations were to come apart at the seams, it would make it more difficult for other teams and players to establish themselves. This worry was shared by many in the scene, including some former members of ORDER.
ORDER Enters Voluntary Administration
As some people in the esports industry began to feel negative about the future of esports in Australia, others remained positive. “This kind of news is always unpleasant to hear, regardless of the industry,” said Kanga Esports CEO Hayden Sheils.
Despite reports to the contrary, ORDER appears to have fallen, according to The Australian. However, conflicting accounts of ORDER’s current status are emerging. Chris Orfanellis, ORDER’s chief gaming officer, stated on TwitLonger that the company was not dead but was instead for sale.
Rules
ASIC’s rules allow a company to enter voluntary administration while still looking for a buyer, which is a perfectly reasonable assertion. When a firm is placed into voluntary administration, the objective is to determine what its future holds as quickly as possible.
The administration of the company’s assets is entrusted to an external party, often known as an “administrator.” The administrator’s key goal is to find a solution that will preserve the organization, including potential sales to interested buyers.
