I'd like to announce an organization in the works since early November of last year.

You may be familiar with my previous org; 1FPro Gaming. Our players had phenomenal growth, and the team truly was and is a second family. The branding, however, needed work.

So I am happy to announce (Wiki)Rise Esports and share with you our Starcraft rosters.




Rise was inspired by the Phoenix; burning to ash, but arising stronger and more determined than ever before.

It is fitting, then, that Rise Starcraft is the culmination of the now retired (Wiki)Rival Gaming and (Wiki)1F Pro Gaming teams and staff.

Rise Esports is a multigame, international team, with eyes on the world stage of competition. We want to promote growth at a community level, not just a pro level; our community is active, welcoming, and always seems to stay up to date on the latest memes.

We want to provide a better perspective and lower barrier for fans to interact and represent their favorite players and team.

Ultimately, the North American scene is in dire need of a serious organization to support the breakthrough players. We're happy to provide that, as well as an incredibly varied worldwide roster, (Players from a total of Eight different countries)!

I sincerely hope you support us in our ambitious goals, and that you cheer for us going forward. We really are putting our best foot forward, and have some exciting ideas in mind for our players, fans, and the scene at large.

Be sure to follow us on twitter! We do giveaways and keep you informed of new content, players, and news. https://twitter.com/Rise_ESC

Check out our launch video here:


Thank you for reading along this far - Let's #RiseUp together.

Sincerely, Austin aka "Xpired"

PS: No, we didn't pick up C9 RL, and no, we didn't pick up Pine.

I always thought thatz "1F Pro" was a bit of an odd name so this is a step up! GL to all involved!

I think Future has great potential and could be the next big name coming out of NA.

Hopefully he gets the support he needs on Rise, gl!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I mean, this is basically just a combination and addition to two existing teams that have been around for a while, so it's not like it's a totally new organization.

I'm pretty sure it is a new organization, hence the announcement of the new organization, technicalities of a merger.
