How is Advertising Evil It in no way hurts you to look at logos either in between breaks or on overlays. making money isn't wrong it is what keeps our economy running
That's why it's evil. The U.S. and its "economy" AKA "planet, life, and culture destroying consumption engine" is the primary source of evil in this world

Non-intrusive logos on scoreboards underneath players' names (what TB mentioned in the OP's link) sounds like a perfectly good idea to me. We don't get to see the players' shirts that frequently, and not at all if the tournament is online. Also, I really don't like seeing a Pringles logo or any other logo randomly places in the middle of a battlefield, even if it doesn't change the unit interaction. It distracts me from the game (in a negative way- not calling positive attention to it) because it clearly doesn't belong there. It's way out of place if randomly put on the map.

Here's an idea: produce and publicize much more good player focused content at events. By promoting the players you build a brand around their associated sponsors, i.e. the fans of all the EG players support team EG's sponsors. Take MLG for example. Next to zero interviews with players or any other player focused content, on reddit basically zero posts praising or promoting players, while almost the entire front page of reddit - and basically every post related to the arena - is either promoting or praising casters or analysts. The players deserve much more attention, and this would also give the sponsors more exposure.
