Surely the amount of sponsors for EG is reaching cheat-sheet-sticky-notes level for players to rattle off by now. They removed a lot of previous ones. removed like no longer sponsored? Or removed like not important enough to be on the top of the list
They've changed a lot of sponsors, gotten rid of some, added some new ones, maintained about the same number.
That said, iNcontroL did mention a loooooooong time ago that for the minor sponsors, they don't necessarily have to mention them all. They're given a list of "must-mentions", and then asked if they can sprinkle the lesser ones around as needed

inb4 EGFloRC ;D
Good for EG on getting another sponsor. They're coming back in the race for most sponsors vs LG-IM~

Yeah right, I'm sure EG are so desperate for sponsors that they'll make a deal just for some free chairs...

Always better than nothing :D
They probably won't have to mention NEEDforSEAT every single time they recite their sponsors, they have a ton of minor sponsors like this.

I doubt they even need to mention it much at all. This is a perfect sponsor for EG because they do so much streaming. When they get up and walk away from the stream for a few minutes to take a break, everyone watching just gets to stare at the dxracer chair, and then you want one because you see it so often.

So is Flo gonna be joining EG now?
I don't think EG ever had female gamers

Although many EG guys were already using and showing these chairs on their streams long before their sponsored by them. At least the LoL players were.
In any case this is a great fit. This company has profited hugely from Esports sponsoring, because it perfectly fits the group of people that watches this.

Was like "oh cool, ill check out their site, my chair could use a replacement"
$300 for their cheapest chair...
nevermind.

Ah ze Germans expanding to Nordamerika.

It may be expensive but if someone spends a good portion of their day doing stuff at the computer then I think it makes sense to at least be comfortable while doing it. Not saying that Need for Seat necessarily has the best chairs for that price point but the logic behind a higher priced chair is similar to why you don't skimp on mattresses (unless you're ok with back problems).

Not saying it's bad lol
It's just kind of minor. It's probably Need for seat that contacted them anyway.

They have one in their fighting game division.

So has anyone here actually owned one of these chairs? Are they really good? I might actually want to shell out for one, but without actually being able to try it out first, I'm a bit shaky on the decision.

I bought mine almost 2 years ago and I like it a lot. It's really comfortable.

I like the cape idea to put all your sponsors on
Why wear a cape when you can make your players get body tattoos all over their bodies. Yay.

I got one a few months ago, and I love it. They're expensive, but if you're spending a lot of time at the computer, I think it's easily worth it.

Awesome, I am in the market for a new chair..
|
I skipped a few words and read "need for sponsors eg" and was like wut threy dont need any more but oh OK its another sponsor -_- I can't stomach buying a chair that expensive but I guess its probably good chairs
|
EG sponsor list is getting insane O_O
|
seat people sponsor the teams now and at some point tournaments get so much complaints about bad seating causing bad play that they have to buy em too. Clever Step2 is to somehow make the live viewership want them too.
