Yeah, they're not selling anything, it's just a press release to inform you that they will be selling these products very soon. Actually we won't be selling these. As the press release states, they are reserved solely for our professional players of the highest caliber. Please also note that we will be awarding further jackets in the next few weeks - Leenock may well appear in this list!
Indeed.
It's only a question of when Leenock will receive his. We all know he's going to get one.
As for the actual track jacket. I wouldn't be dying to get my hands on one. At least it's much better compared to all the other team apparel we see when it comes to SC2 teams.
I'm still waiting for several teams to update their look and be more fashionable.

Honestly, if the jackets are for "Champions" at least give the kids proper "Champion Jackets".

I wonder if it's too late to toss one SlayerS'BoxeR's way now that SlayerS is dead and he isn't sponsored by Razer anymore...Though I guess BoxeR doesn't really need a Razer jacket to prove he's a boss.

I don't get it, there is no "Team Razer", are these players getting payed for using this as a standalone deal? Is razer actually giving this away or are they enforcing the use of it in return for sponsorship money seeing as not every Razer sponsored champion is getting it?
And the obvious one, does the jacket stop heating if you unplug it from the internet? (couldn't resist)
I dunno, this is fishy at best and seems like some sort of desperate move after the spyware fiasco.

I don't think other sponsors would like a jacket that covers the standard jersey with their logos on it :o I don't think it'll be an issue, not every member of a team wears their jackets simultaneously.
Oh i was just curious if there could be a situation where e.g Leenock sits in the booth at GSL with his razer jacket on and FXopen say "wait a minute, you can't see our logo." I guess I'm taking things too far, haha.

I know this is marketing, and I'm ok with that but this concept of team razer is really weird to me. Especially this: " ulminating today with more than 50 teams on Team Razer—the world’s largest, most successful group of cyber athletes in the world" I know this over top way seem the way to go for "gaming" targeted harware company, but that really rubs me the wrong way.

I really like the deluxe peripheral bag. Usually they just hold your keyboard with your mouse being squeezed in. This one is nice. Separate compartments for your primary/back up mice, one for headset with a completely separate slot for the keyboard. Very nice. I would definitely purchase if I traveled to a lot of lans.

And as for the always online question, it was answered quite eloquently by Razer on page 2.

"Elite apparel"? Sorry, but this looks like that generic brand type of sportswear that only the really poor kids used to wear back in high school :S

Ye, Leenock is on a fantastic run recently. He would deserve it 100% in my opinion But lets wait and see

No no, elite apparel of champions. It's better.
Not sure what the value here is of giving things to the people you sponsor for their contributions to e-sports if you're already sponsoring them as well, but you'll get a nod for doing that last bit at least. Keep up the good work!

The 'spyware fiasco' didn't really become an issue until a few days ago and was started by a forum post that was created on the 23rd of last month. Our League of Legends teams TSM, CLG Prime and CLG.eu wore their jackets at the Riot Season 2 Championship which ended on the 13th of last month.
Thanks for the laugh though, we needed that.

I feel confused, so Razer is the entity that manages these players as a team by hiring coaches, providing salaries, flying to events, etc, or are you just the title sponsor like RC to EG and the whole jacket business is a part of a endorsement deal?
Sorry, but I'm having trouble figuring out the branding and purpose of the definition "Team Razer" in this scenario, maybe someone can help me out!
Yeah, I know the jackets themselves existed, however this TL post did not, which is what I was referring to.
Sorry if I come across bitter, my 2012 Mamba stopped working last week and the shipment cost to UK from Sweden(bought it by import when it launched since it wasnt available here) is silly. My old mamba still works fine though, but the 2012 is way more awesome for rts gaming on a surface such as bed sheets ^^
