In the twelfth season of the ESL Pro Series, Sapphire is equipping the eSports professional league’s events with high-end graphics cards. Visitors to the Intel Friday Night Games can see the graphics performance of Sapphire cards for themselves. As the official supplier, Sapphire will have its own stand at these eSports events. The graphics specialist will also raffle a graphics card among the spectators at every Intel Friday Night Game. The Intel Friday Night Game on February 22 in Frankfurt am Main marked the start of the season.
“We are pleased to have Sapphire as a partner for the ESL Pro Series in the coming season as well,” says Tobias Heim, Director Sales at Turtle Entertainment. “It is not only professional gamers who need good graphics equipment in their PCs. The eSports players in the ESLCommunity, with more than 780,000 members, are particularly interested in high-end graphics cards – and a commitment to the professional league is the ideal way to reach them,” Heim continues.
“We are pleased to be able to continue the excellent collaboration with ESL this year as well,” comments Thomas Kessler, Sales Director Central Europe at SAPPHIRE Technology. “The ESL Pro Series offers us the ideal platform to position both our brand and our products in the gaming sector. We wish all the players every success and all the fans an exciting season!“
