This team caught the attention of Gen.G due to their recent successes and accomplishments during the CWL Pro League Qualifier event. Gen.G is constantly scouting the best talent in esports and this group proved to be the perfect fit due to their competitive nature.
Gen.G’s new Call of Duty World League team will have access to all of Gen.G’s resources including the future Los Angeles headquarters. Gen.G will provide the team with all support needed to have a successful season.
“With the signing of this Call of Duty World League team, we are continuing to strengthen our presence in the US by tapping into the console esports market and one of the largest video game franchises of all time,” said Arnold Hur, Gen.G’s Chief Growth Officer.
The team will be competing under the Gen.G banner at the CWL Pro League, where the sixteen best professional Call of Duty esports teams compete across a twelve-week regular season to battle for placement into the CWL Finals. CWL Pro League begins on February 4, 2019, and broadcasts Monday – Thursday.
