The longest-running esports-first betting company Unikrn and esports organization Unicorns of Love have joined forces. Unikrn will now be the official sponsor for all of UoL’s competitive teams minus their League of Legends roster.
The two companies will be partnering to provide player support for professional gamers across multiple titles, including CS:GO, SimRacing and PUBG Mobile, as well as expand Unicorns of Love’s reach with new resourcing in the coming year.
They will be partnering with the betting company in search of new esports talent. Unicorns of Love announced they will be offering gamers a $50,000 esports or streamer contract to join the Unicorns of Love banner should they win.
“Unikrn is first and foremost a supporter of esports,” said Rahul Sood, Unikrn’s CEO, “The last time we co-founded a team, it was a big success during our tenure. Unikrn loves Unicorns of Love’s fan love: just the name itself was too good to pass up. We’re excited to unveil Unikrns of Love.”
The winner of this Unikrn-sponsored contest will receive a 6-month contract to play with the Unicorns of Love, earning a $50,000 six-month sponsorship. Any aspiring North American or European streamer or esports competitor can apply to join the Unicorns of Love on Unikrn’s website.
“The Unicorns of Love family is changing today,” said Jos Mallant, UOL’s Owner, “Our established players will don a new jersey, with Unikrn’s invaluable support. We’ll be joined by new teammates as UOL pushes to become Germany’s best CS:GO franchise. We’re excited to be adding three new players in, Andreas “Andyy” Schäfer, Jon “JDC” de Castro and Michal “OKOLICIOUZ” Glowaty. We can’t wait to welcome a fan into our clan to stream or compete in 2020. New roster, new talent, two unicorns, one jersey: ThinkPink!”
The announcement comes in the wake of major roster changes to their CSGO roster. The new CSGO roster will retain current members Crisby and Kzy along with the addition of Andyy, JDC and OKOLICIOUZ.
