This isn't LG Electronic's first endeavor with an esports organization, already partnering with both Gambit Esports and FaZe Clan for the promotion of their gaming monitors. Though LG has been with FaZe Clan for over a year and a half, the partnership with Gambit Esports has been within this year. With more large corporations further investing into the esports landscape, we are likely to see more investment throughout the scene, which is even more important due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
