Cloud9 and Team SoloMid to Continue Exclusively
Using Logitech G Headsets, Mice, Keyboards and Mouse Pads in
Competition
Logitech (SIX:LOGN) (NASDAQ:LOGI), a leading innovator of gaming
peripherals, today announced that two top North American
professional gaming organizations have decided to exclusively use
Logitech G hardware for the next year. In addition to providing
early feedback and design input on products before they go to
market, Cloud9 (C9) and Team SoloMid (TSM) will continue
to exclusively use a mix of Logitech G hardware peripherals during
tournament gameplay including headsets, mice, keyboards and mouse
pads whenever they play.
“eSports continues to grow in popularity and play a critical
role in PC gaming,” said Ujesh Desai, general manager of the
Logitech gaming business. “We’re privileged to be able to work with
some of the best pro gamers in the world. By teaming up with them
we can take their feedback and develop the best gaming gear on the
planet.”
Cloud9’s teams include 45 players for Counter-Strike: Global
Offensive (CS:GO), Dota 2, Halo, Hearthstone, Heroes of the Storm,
League of Legends (LoL), Smite and Super Smash Bros. Melee. Last
year’s LoL team finished first place in the League Championship
Series (LCS) Spring 2014.
“We are thrilled to be re-signing with Logitech G,” said Jack
Etienne, owner, Cloud9. “They have been instrumental in our success
and growth by supporting us with boot camps to keeping us equipped
with the best gaming peripherals — Logitech G has given us the edge
we need to win.”
Comprised of 13 players, TSM is the world's most popular League
of Legends team and recently-formed Hearthstone and CS:GO teams.
TSM had an exceptional 2014 season, finishing in the top 10 during
the LoL World Finals and took first place in the LCS Summer 2014.
The team is expected to continue their dominance this season.
“I'm extremely proud to be re-signing with Logitech G as they've
played a critical role in our success last season,” said Andy Dinh,
owner, Team SoloMid. “Not only do they provide us with the best
equipment to compete with, they supported us every step of the way
in 2014. I'm especially excited to continue working with them
because they believe in our goals and want to help us achieve
them.”
