ESL Pro League Season 18 Official Partnership

The partnership is a continuation of ESL Pro League’s successful integrations in Season 16 and Season 17

Building on their successful integrations during ESL Pro League Seasons 16 and 17, ASUS Republic of Gamers and the ESL FACEIT Group are excited to announce the expansion of their partnership as ROG becomes the exclusive Official OEM Partner for Season 18 of the ESL Pro League (EPL). In advance of the 18th season of the ESL Pro League, the partnership extension will see ROG remain the league’s Official OEM Partner.

ROG will continue to benefit from numerous brand integrations through the partnership in a variety of broadcast segments. Additionally, by introducing them to the ROG Strix SCAR 16/18 series gaming laptop powered by top-of-the-line 13th Gen Intel Core i9 processors during the live streams, they hope to further inspire fans and gamers around the world to improve their overall gaming experience. The overall gaming experience is expected to be improved by these top-tier systems, which should also inspire players to achieve greater heights.

Last summer, ESL and ROG collaborated on three ESL Challenger events, EPL Season 16, and later EPL Season 17. These partnerships succeeded in increasing audience awareness of the ROG brand, and their participation helped to further establish ESL events as must-watch events on the international esports calendar.

“ROG has maintained a steadfast dedication to gaming and esports, consistently showing our unwavering support for these vibrant communities,” says Galip Fu, ASUS Head of Global Marketing for Consumer and Gaming Laptops. We are incredibly thrilled to work with Intel and ESL once more this fall for ESL Pro League Season 18. From 2019 when we first started working together on ESL One to 2022 when we started working on ESL Challenger, we saw the passion and enthusiasm from esports fans for high-performance hardware through our work together in the previous two years. This has encouraged us to continue working toward providing the best gaming solutions on the market.

“We’re thrilled to announce the extension of our partnership with ASUS ROG for ESL Pro League Season 18,” says Bastian Veiser, Director of Partner Management at ESL FACEIT Group. We believe that our partnership with ASUS, along with Intel, will help us to achieve the overarching mission of the EPL, which is to support and equip professional players to help them reach their full potential while competing on a global stage.

“I’m excited to see the continued collaboration between ESL FACEIT Group and ASUS ROG for ESL Pro League Season 18,” says Alex Inglot, commissioner of the ESL Pro League. This collaboration demonstrates our dedication to improving both the gaming experiences of players and spectators while also advancing the competitive esports landscape. We’re thrilled to advance our goal of taking esports to new heights with the help of ASUS ROG’s cutting-edge technology and unwavering support. This collaboration confirms ESL FACEIT Group’s commitment to excellence, and I have no doubt that working together, we’ll keep raising the bar and influencing the gaming industry on a global scale.

The Group Stage of ESL Pro League Season 18 will feature 32 of the best Counter-Strike rosters in the world competing against one another in Malta on August 30. A spot in the 2023 Playoffs, which run from September 26 to October 1, as well as the majority of the US$850,000 prize pool, are at risk.
