In the Breach Esports, one of the leading brands in the competitive gaming industry, is excited to announce a recent partnership with Shuffle.com, the fastest growing online casino and sports betting platform. This collaboration marks a milestone in the development of both companies, connecting the world of esports and the future of online betting.
Key features of the partnership:
- The ITB CS2 and Dota divisions are renamed ITB.Shuffle Esports, ushering in a recent era of highly competitive esports and fan-engaging rosters for the team.
- All recent Counter-Strike 2 and Dota rosters, including top players and coaches, will be revealed later this month.
- ITB and Shuffle.com present Shuffle Masters, a tournament series designed to showcase emerging esports talent.
- Several community initiatives are also in the works, including several series on FaceIt.
The partnership is expected to catapult ITB to the forefront of the esports world with a significant $1 million annual investment from Shuffle.com to build top-notch CS2 and Dota squads to compete on the global stage. This combination of two forces will provide unparalleled entertainment and opportunities for the online gaming community.
After establishing a mighty relationship with sponsor ITB last season, this strategic move by Shuffle.com is their largest partnership to date in the competitive gaming scene. In addition to the rebrand, ITB and Shuffle.com are excited to introduce the Shuffle Masters Series. This tournament series is designed to provide a competitive platform for emerging Tier 2-3 teams, offering the opportunity to showcase their skills and compete for significant prize pools.
Sam Cook, CEO and founder of ITB, said: “Shuffle.com is a trusted and reputable brand in the betting space, and this integrated partnership will take both brands to new levels never before achieved. This will mean long-term support for high-profile teams that will compete at the very top of esports, with tournaments, fan engagement and new community initiatives. This is ITB bigger, better and with far-reaching impact – combining Shuffle’s esports aspirations with our own infrastructure and talent. Push your limits with this partnership – ITB x Shuffle Esports.”
Noah Dummett, CEO and co-founder of Shuffle, said: “As someone who grew up playing CS, I’m incredibly excited to further engage in this space through Shuffle Esports. We will be investing heavily in the team and the wider community to build a team that reflects the same ethos we have at Shuffle.com – we are here to win and have fun doing it.”
Despite volatile market conditions, 2024 has been an incredible year for the betting platform so far. Last spring, Shuffle.com announced a fundraising from industry-leading funds and angel investors and celebrated its one-year anniversary with the release and first airdrop of SHFL, a digital utility token intended for employ on Shuffle.com and other similar platforms. In March and April, the team consecutively crossed $1 billion in monthly betting volume, and in May, SHFL received its first listing on the Central Exchange (CEX). ITB.Shuffle Esports is one of many partnership announcements made this year by the Shuffle.com team as the gaming platform continues to evolve.
