Note: Microsoft did not just cut more jobs after the 1,900 layoffs reported before, the entire ActiBlizz ESports Organization is included in the 1,900 layoffs that were already reported on previously.

Only reading the headline can make it seem like Microsoft laid off more than the 1,900 they did before, but thats not the case this time.

Glad they only cut 1,900 jobs!

Thanks for the info though.
