Acer Predator has revealed that it has partnered with Team Envy, meaning the headquarters of the latter will be provided with laptops, desktops, and monitors. Acer and Envy are also collaborating on a video series, and will kick off the Predator After Party at PAX East tonight.
This deal - which is Predator's first team sponsorship in the US - will see the Predator logo on the jerseys of Envy's CS:GO and PUBG teams. Envy will also provide digital content to Acer's Training Room system aimed at helping gamers improve, and fans can even expect contests in the future.
"The Predator gaming line is designed to give players a competitive edge over opponents. With premium speed and graphics at their fingertips, Team Envy's players will have industry-leading systems to best support their expert training," said Richard Black, Acer vice president of marketing. "Sharing a mutual passion for esports and innovation, Team Envy is an ideal partner for Acer. As we push the boundaries of what's possible with technology, Team Envy strives to move the needle in what can be achieved in gameplay. We're excited to join forces to bring competitive esports and training to new levels in performance and entertainment."
"Acer's early support of the competitive esports scene and Envy's long success as a professional gaming organization make a perfect match," said Geoff Moore, president and COO of Envy Gaming. "We're excited to kick off a partnership with Acer at a time where our Envy PUBG team just finished top three in the first stage of their season and our business is firing on all cylinders."
Is this a good pair?
