CROWD CONTROL (aka Reactions to the Week’s Biggest Story)

 


Riot Games formalized its long-term plans for League of Legends, revealing a new franchising model for the North American League of Legends Championship Series that will include an application process for teams and revenue sharing, as well as a players’ association and more. Franchises will cost $10 million for existing NA LCS organizations, while newcomers to the scene will need to pay an extra $3 million to compensate teams not selected to the group of 10 for the 2018 season. Teams will no longer face relegation under the new model, with the company noting that “It’s harder to make long-term investments as a brand if you don’t know if the team is going to exist,” Jarred Kennedy, who co-heads Riot Esports, told Ad Age. The changes “are going to make it much more palatable and approachable for brands to come in and invest.”
 
Reactions were generally positive…
The implementation of a franchise model means greater stability and more predictability for brands. As the number of teams has started to grow in recent years, it has been challenging for advertisers to figure out who and how to sponsor,” said Joost van Dreunen, CEO & Co-Founder at SuperData Research, who added that “Riot taking the initiative on how to formalize the industry will likely affect Activision Blizzard’s Overwatch League. While the financial mechanics of OWL are still shrouded in rumors, and several prominent teams dropping the game altogether, Riot is setting the standard. Consequently, teams, and their investors, will expect a comparable structure from Activision and others.”
“The @riotgames announcement everyone knew was coming is a game changer,” said WME/IMG’s Tobias Sherman on Twitter. “Value proposition is clear and the legacy of success mitigates risk.”
“Glad to see Riot also moving toward a more stable ecosystem and meaningful partnerships with owners,” said MonteCristo, who has been tapped to cast the upcoming Overwatch League.
“IMO Riot could have sold franchise spots for substantially more, but they didn’t because they care more about selecting the right partners,” wrote Team Liquid co-CEO and Owner Steve Arhancet.
“Riot is stronger than the NFL, because they don’t just own the league, they own the actual football. VERY weary of them owning the PA now too,” tweeted video game attorney Ryan Morrison .
 
 
E3

 


Twitch inked a deal with T-Mobile to partner as host of the “first-ever” Twitch Esports Arena at E3. Spotlighting fighting games, the tournament will see top players compete in Street Fighter V, TEKKEN 7, and Injustice 2 during all three days of E3. Admission will be open the public with all activities from the T-Mobile Esports Stage streamed on Twitch.tv/twitchesports. T-Mobile customers will get a VIP area where they can watch the event live.
 
Facebook detailed plans for this year’s event, describing its campaign as its “biggest year yet,” with a public activation in West Hall that will be dubbed ‘Raise Your Game.’ Activation will include a Facebook LIVE stage where Andrea Rene will host a series of guests for live programming throughout the three days of the show with guests that include developers, marketers, and more. In addition, the platform will integrate more video than ever and offer some news to share on the gaming video front.
 
Nintendo announced that Pokken Tournament DX will join the ARMS and Splatoon 2 titles with its own invitational tournament at E3. The event will take place on June 14 at 10:30a PT, and feature eight YouTube and Twitch stars battling in four teams.
 
Warner Bros.

OpTic Gaming is going long with Twitch, inking an exclusive, multiyear deal with the livestreaming platform that will showcase most of the squad’s first-person and third-person shooter eSports teams, according to VentureBeat. Twitch will collaborate with OpTic to “build each streamer’s presence on the platform and elevate the streamer experience for each player and their viewers.” “First and third-person shooters are what jump-started competitive online gaming as a phenomenon and are a catalyst in making esports what it is today,” said John Howell, VP of Global Partnerships at Twitch. “In the last year alone, we have seen shooter-game tournaments set viewership records and contribute to the meteoric rise of new FPS/TPS games on Twitch. By partnering with OpTic Gaming, an acclaimed fixture in the competitive shooter scene, we are able to ensure our large community of shooter game fans don’t have to go far to see the best the genre has to offer.”

EA announced that Cristiano Ronaldo of Real Madrid will grace the global cover star of EA Sports FIFA 18, which hits shelves on Sept. 29 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 systems. “The world’s best player has helped fuel the biggest leap forward on the pitch that we’ve ever delivered,” said Aaron McHardy, Senior Producer for EA SPORTS FIFA. “We are extremely excited to partner with Cristiano – working with him we learned a lot about his unique play style and what makes him so special. His passion, energy and global fanbase make him the perfect ambassador for FIFA 18.”
 
Meanwhile, 2K is turning to Kyrie Irving of the Cleveland Cavaliers as the cover athletes for NBA 2K18 . “It is well known that I’m an avid player of this series and I am honored to be the cover athlete of NBA 2K18,” said Kyrie Irving, who has his sights set on another ring and is making a run for back-to-back championships. “It’s surreal to be featured on the cover and I can’t wait to dominate on the virtual court with all of my fans this fall.”
 
In other deal news, OMEN by HP was named the Official PC Partner of Blizzard Entertainment’s Overwatch World Cup this year, where OMEN X Desktop PCs will power gameplay for each of the global tournament’s live events. “With the launch of an entirely new, cutting-edge and comprehensive portfolio of OMEN by HP gaming products, HP is celebrating the competitive spirit that burns inside all gamers,” said Alex Craddock, global head of marketing, personal systems at HP. “We’re excited to be working with Blizzard Entertainment by helping power the gameplay behind the Overwatch World Cup. HP is dedicating itself to helping grow esports by investing in the athletes of the future and our partnership with Blizzard Entertainment is a big step in pursuing that goal.”
