The upcoming Fortnite World Cup is poised to land record sponsorship rates with multiple executives stating that Epic Games and agency Endeavor have discussed prices as high as $25 million, depending on level of involvement, to partner with the event and a lineup of brands that have come to the table for discussions, according to multiple executives. If met, the rate would sponsoring Floyd Mayweather’s shorts, robe and caps for a fight or MGM’s recent three-year deal with the NBA. For comparisons sake, the cost to buy an ad for Game 1 of the 2018 NBA Finals ran as high as $829,577 this year, while a spot at the Super Bowl in February ran about $5 million, while IndyCar reportedly sought $30 million for a new series sponsor. Qualifiers for the Fortnite World Cup will now begin in 2019 with the tournament itself set to run in late 2019. Neither Epic Games nor Endeavor responded to requests for comment.

A report by VPEsports writes that former Infinite Esports & Entertainment director Ali “Alicus” Saba has been accused of misconduct and unethical negotiating practices for the organization’s Overwatch Contenders teams. According to a series of chat logs, e-mails, and discord calls provided to the site, Saba engaged with a team of players and coaches before the start of Overwatch Contenders North America 2018 Season One with the intention of signing them to OpTic’s Overwatch Contenders slot. The deal, as it was framed to the team, would have made the players and staff the official academy team of Overwatch League side Houston Outlaws. However, according to the report, Saba and the organization “not only attempted to lure players into signing a string of bad contracts that failed to include key details previously agreed upon by the parties, but that repeated mistreatment of the players and coaches by Saba was not acted upon by upper management despite the players providing records of their interactions with him.”
 
 
FanAI SNAPSHOT

 

This past weekend marked the end of regional play for Season 6 of the Rocket League Championship Series. The RLCS, like League of Legends and other titles, separates their professional competitions into regional leagues. In light of this, FanAI investigated to see if this regional separation had an effect on viewership patterns. While a deeper investigation would be needed to draw conclusions about other leagues, in the case of the RLCS their format seemingly fostered a strong overlap between their European and North American fan bases; 41% of the total audience watches matches from both regions. Perhaps one reason for this overlap is that the RLCS broadcasts both EU and NA matches in a similar time slot on Saturdays and Sundays, making for a consistent viewing experience for the Rocket League audience. For brands thinking of sponsoring esports, looking at leagues with such high crossover in regional viewership such as the RLCS could provide an opportunity to advertise to both a domestic and international fanbase, while reaching a dedicated core audience that tunes in regardless of region.
