The eSports Advertising Bureau is formally opening its doors, lining up an Advisory Board that includes Turner, Twitch, Major League Gaming, The Madison Square Garden Company, Canoe and Magid Advisors. The organization’s mantra will look to offer marketers with tools “so they can confidently invest media dollars to a sports category that is still widely unknown to advertising brands” that include publication of common ad metrics, offering eSports ad landscape education and guidance to marketers, and promotion of best practices. Stuart Lipson will serve as the organization’s Executive Director.
“Imagine the value we could provide to every seller if the first 15 minutes of every meeting weren’t dedicated to explaining what eSports is and isn’t and what the magnitude of the opportunity is,” said Lipson. “There are two things that are dangerous: the first is people who do neck curls and pretend that they get it even though they don’t; the second is people who don’t get it and don’t tell you so it becomes an archeological dig, they take your materials and it ends up at the bottom of a pile. The beauty of the advisory board is that we’ve gone across the ecosystem so that we can make sure everybody’s interest is represented, including the venue.”
“We took what could be new and complicated to folks and made it really easy,” said Chris Pizzurro, Head of Business Development, Sales & Marketing at Canoe. “People generally don’t like new. New can be scary and people can get fired over new. But if you have an adjustment to something, people are asked to go over that and it isn’t as scary. I’ve taken that approach with VOD, and people have been extremely successful moving 5-10% of linear TV budgets over to video-on-demand. For eSports, you start from the basis that it is sports. Everyone likes sports. Then you trigger from there, starting with what’s familiar and then do into the point that unique and differentiating about it.”

Las Vegas is poised to play host to the Battle on the Strip, a new monthly eSports event from Ultimate Media Ventures. The company is partnering with SLS Las Vegas Hotel & Casino for the tournament, which will feature online brackets each month for a different IP from top competitive video game titles. The resort then plays host to the series semi-finals and finals, which will be held live and broadcast from The Foundry with fans able to attend on-site during the finals and secure premium gaming products from leading industry brands. Over the next three weeks, UMV will announce game and broadcast partners, brand sponsors and additional prize pool details. “Esports is rapidly growing in popularity and expanding past traditional sporting events, in large part, due to its interactive live tournaments,“ said Matt Minichino, Vice President of Nightlife & Entertainment at SLS Las Vegas. “Competitive gaming represents the future of entertainment, and we are excited to partner with Ultimate Media Ventures to be the first to bring this incredibly unique experience to the Strip.”
The International e-Sports Federation got a major financial injection this week, announcing a partnership with Alibaba Sports Group that will include a $150 million investment into competitive gaming. According to the announcement, the deal will look to accomplish three goals: launch a tournament which all amateur e-Sports players and professional e-Sports players can participate; push for eSports to be recognized as a sport; and the launch of a unique IP. “This partnership is one big step to IeSF. I believe IeSF and Alisports will maximize each other’s strength by this partnership, said IeSF President Byung Hun Jun. “I also believe eSports Stadium can be transformed to be a fashion place for Youth. IeSF will make our all effort to be with more e-Sports fans in more countries together with Alisports from now on.”
With season one of ELeague nearing its climax, the eSports entity revealed its plans following this week’s championship. The outfit is teaming with FACEIT, the world’s leading independent competitive gaming platform, to produce The Overwatch Open tournament that will feature an online phase run by FACEIT for European and North American teams, as well as Regional and Grand Finals, that will take place at Turner Studios’ ELeague arena in Atlanta. The Grand Final will be presented live on TBS, with simultaneous coverage available via Twitch. “This opportunity to feature Blizzard’s popular Overwatch further expands our eSports offerings and aligns ELeague with a game that is widely embraced by the community,” said Craig Barry, EVP and Chief Content Officer, Turner Sports. “We look forward to bringing the same level of production and storytelling capabilities we’ve demonstrated throughout the first season of ELeague to this championship event.”
ESL unveiled plans to launch 2017 with an event in South East Asia, with the first stop for the ESL One circuit taking place at the Arena of Stars in Malaysia.

The International 2016 will see the prize pool for the Dota tournament top $18 million, according to the Dota 2 prize pool tracker website. Valve initially provided a base prize pool of $1.6 million, with fans able to purchase in-game cosmetic items that would see 25% of its sales add to the prize pool

As ELeague builds up to this weekend’s championship, the professional eSports organization launched by Turner and WME/IMG, will see semifinal coverage begin tomorrow at 5p from Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre in Atlanta as Fnatic/Na’Vi battle on Twitch, followed by mousesports/Virtus Pro at 10p on TBS/Twitch. The Championship will then be held on TBS on Saturday at 4p. Cynopsis asked Craig Barry, EVP and Chief Content Officer, Turner Sports about Championship Weekend, year one and the company’s recent deal for Overwatch.
Barry on this week’s Championship: Since the onset of ELeague’s first season, our emphasis has been on pushing our productions to the highest level possible. We’ve focused on bringing that high production quality to every aspect of our eSports coverage, regardless of platform, while also expanding on the rich narratives surrounding the teams and players. Those same principles will be driving our productions as we reach the pinnacle of our season this weekend. Ultimately, the crowd at Cobb Energy will play into our overall production of the event. Part of moving to a larger venue is a greater opportunity to capitalize on the passion and enthusiasm of the fans and that will be important in creating an exciting atmosphere for our championship.
On viewership: With eSports, evaluating success is more directly associated with the aggregate audience and overall engagement with our content across all platforms digital, linear and social. The consumption of ELeague content across those collective platforms has been consistently strong throughout our first season. We’ve been very pleased with the overwhelmingly positive response from the community and believe we’ve established a firm foundation to further grow our eSports offerings as we move forward. Some of the general trends are consistent with what we see in other live sporting events, being match-up and storyline driven. For instance, we’ve seen a larger spike in traffic when a star performer such as Olofmeister was competing or when a popular North American team like Cloud9 was in action.
On personalities: One of our goals entering ELeague was to showcase more of the personalities and stories behind the teams and players. Combined with our coverage approach and their own abilities to connect with fans through their social media presence, we feel like there is definitely strong potential for players to expand their profiles even further as we grow together. Personalities have been an important part of our ELeague coverage, especially as it relates to our on-air talent. One of the most critical pieces to our success has been the chemistry between our on-air talent and their abilities to connect with fans and develop lasting appeal with hardcore and casual fans alike. They deserve a lot of credit.
On Overwatch: Blizzard has a strong reputation for developing games with outstanding gameplay, visuals and user experience. Overmatch launched with great enthusiasm and momentum within the community and it’s a relatively easy game to understand. We felt it would translate well across all platforms. This also presents ELeague with an opportunity to be part of the progression of the game as it becomes a mainstream eSport.
On sponsor feedback: ELeague has presented a fantastic opportunity for our official marketing partners Domino’s, Arby’s, Buffalo Wild Wings and Credit Karma to evolve with the platform and be innovative with their messaging to consumers. Our sponsors have done an amazing job of creating branded content that resonates directly with eSports fans. I’ve never seen as much positive feedback from fans on social media in support of sponsors as I have surrounding the integrations in our first season of ELeague. We’ve even had chants for some of our OMPs during live event telecasts. I haven’t seen anything like it before and it goes to show, when you do it the right way and stay authentic to the community, brands can establish a deep connection with their audience.
