This will be Sunburn��s first collaboration with the esports industry. The deal will see the music event company become the official venue partner for the India Valorant Invitational event. The event is slated to be held on November 18�C20 at the GMR Arena, Hyderabad.

The tournament will be the first-ever international Valorant event in South Asia. The event will feature some top Asian teams like Paper Rex, Team Secret, and RRQ. All participating teams will compete for a chance to receive a chunk of the $100,000 prize money.

The Chief Gaming Officer of the Galaxy Racer, Siddharth Ravishankar, spoke on the partnership with the music festival brand. He highlighted the possible reasons for the partnership and outlined its expected benefits.

��Music and gaming are two elements that have an immense influence on Gen Z, and merging them has yielded huge success globally,�� Ravishankar said.

��This partnership fulfils our aim of blending premiere esports events with music festivals as the goals and the vision of both companies align perfectly. Fans can attend just the finals, or both the finals and the music festival.”

A promo music video for the tournament, which will feature the performance of world-renowned DJ Snake, is said to be in the works ahead of the tournament. This type of entertainment has been perceived as a progressive way of appealing to both the gaming and music industries.

However, this is not a new occurrence in the esports scene, as the 2022 League of Legends World Championship Final featured popular American rapper Lil Nas X. He was tasked with performing the tournament��s anthem in the opening ceremony of the Grand Final, which also featured other artists.

Spacebound Web Labs, the parent company behind Sunburn, aims to use the event to build its engagement with the ever-growing esports community.

This is Sunburn��s first collaboration with the esports industry. Spacebound Web Labs, which owns Sunburn, will be using the event to build engagement with its fans.

The Chief Executive Officer of Spacebound, Karan Singh, shared his excitement about the collaboration. He spoke about the partnership with Galaxy Racer being the right fit for the brand.

��Collaborating with Galaxy Racer gives us an opportunity to enter the gaming industry, which is on the rise in India,�� Singh said.

��Music is a part of gaming, and e-sports is just the right synergy for us. We are always on the lookout for unique distribution and this is one such opportunity �� to engage our fans with this unique blend.��

The Indian esports scene has over the years grown in a very impressive and expansive manner. Several top partnerships have been announced in the past quarter. Popular sportswear brand Puma secured a deal with Revenant Esports in October, and in November, Skyesports went into a collaboration with The Pok��mon Company.

Galaxy Racer are not relenting in their quest to reinforce their presence as an emerging esports organization within the industry. Their female-focused program, “HER Galaxy,” made the Los Angeles Dodgers-backed Trailblazer Venture Studio accelerator program selection.

The Asian franchise are said to be onto something with their partnership with Sunburn. According to the 2021 Deloitte��s Digital Media Trends fall pulse survey, 42% of Gen Z gamers listen to music while gaming, and 22% recommend their music choices to other online gamers while gaming. The report also stated that 11% of Gen Z gamers have attended live music concerts at a gaming location.

The primary focus of the partnership, which will last for an entire year, will be on a content series as well as a number of gaming tournaments that will be sponsored by Mashreq throughout the region. In addition, the Mashreq brand will be featured prominently on each of Galaxy Racer’s team jerseys.

This is Mashreq��s first time collaborating with a brand within the esports industry. In addition to this, a partnership of this kind between a banking institution and a gaming company has never before been seen in the MENA region. According to Mashreq, the partnership was formed out of the aspiration to “speak to the next generation” by way of the production of digital activations.

Galaxy Racer revealed that the production of the content series would be initiated and carried out by both companies. It is purported to star ten of the most successful content creators in the region.

The second component of the partnership pertains to a collection of local tournaments that will be jointly organized by both parties. The very first of the series of tournaments will be the Neo NXT Rocket League Championship. The event is named after Mashreq’s digital banking brand, Neo NXT.

The Group CEO at Mashreq, Ahmed Abdelaal, shared his thoughts about the partnership. He highlighted the growth of the esports community in the Middle East as the key that drove the region’s gaming industry to what it is valued at today.

��Esports is witnessing incredible growth across the Middle East, which is helping to drive the region��s gaming industry to the multi-billion dollar sector it has become today,�� Abdelaal said.

��Our innovative, digital-focused Neo NXT proposition targeting the SMART teens (12-18) resonates with the gaming community, positioned for internet savvy connected generation, to suit their lifestyle on the go.��

Galaxy Racer has been attaining good growth and stirring the waters not only in the MENA region but also all over the world. Recent developments at the company include an investment of $25 million into the cryptocurrency brand QUINT. The franchise also expanded its reach with the creation of the HER Galaxy brand in the United States. Galaxy Racer is also behind the first professional esports league in Pakistan and recently announced the opening of a new regional headquarters in Southeast Asia.

EXECRATION vs GALAXY RACER DOTA 2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

This will mark the seventh meeting between Dota 2 teams Execration and Galaxy Racer and the first since Carnival Cup in December when GXR won 2-1 in an otherwise very close series. This win marked GXR’s third head-to-head victory of the year while the remaining three ended in two stalemates and one victory for Execration.

Galaxy Racer have since appeared in four official games and managed only one win, against Phoenix Gaming. Execration have played out 10 games during that time and put together a 3-2-5 record, which includes wins against Invictus Gaming, Vice Esports and Spade A.

Even though Galaxy Racer won the most recent head-to-head bout, that does not necessarily mean they should be priced as the favourites. Their last encounter with Execration could have ended either way, so it makes more sense to side with the outsiders at $2.16 to grab a revenge win.

Many of the top betting sites allow you to place multi bets, with our recommendation being to take W2C to win in CSGO action into Execration to win here, with this bet paying around the $6.31 mark.
