Not sure if there's a thread for this, but saw this on their facebook page,



Evil Geniuses is excited to today announce a partnership with NEEDforSEAT USA.
NEEDFORSEAT USA SPONSORS EVIL GENIUSES

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – May 29th, 2013. – Evil Geniuses, one of the world’s leading professional gaming teams, is excited to today announce a partnership with NEEDforSEAT USA, North America’s premier source for professional gaming chairs. As a result of the new sponsorship, Evil Geniuses’ players will be sitting in NEEDforSEAT USA’s DXRacer gaming chairs in the team’s professional gaming houses around the world, including its North American StarCraft 2 & DotA 2 facility, its European League of Legends facility, and its Korean StarCraft 2 facility.

“The DXRacer which NEEDforSEAT USA provided me with is the most comfortable chair I’ve ever had,” said Evil Geniuses StarCraft 2 Captain Geoff “iNcontroL” Robinson. “I really can’t overstate the importance of having a comfortable gaming chair. As a professional gamer, you’re spending literally hours upon hours seated in front of your computer, and without a chair specifically designed for gaming, you can be left exhausted and achy at the end of the day. I immediately noticed a big difference after I started using my NEEDforSEAT DXRacer.”

“We are very pleased to have partnered with Evil Geniuses,” said NEEDforSEAT USA President Thomas Klein. “The best gamers need the best chairs, and we’re happy that EG’s players are already experiencing the benefits of our chairs. We believe that the right gaming chairs allow gamers to practice longer and play harder, and there’s no better gaming chair than the NEEDforSEAT DXRacer.”

Many of Evil Geniuses’ professional gamers – including iNcontroL, EG’s Korean StarCraft 2 division, and the team’s European League of Legends division – have already begun using NeedForSeat gaming chairs at their respective facilities around the world, and the rest of EG’s players will be equipped shortly. Be sure to check out the players’ Twitch.TV streams to see their new chairs in action!

About Evil Geniuses
Founded in 1999, Evil Geniuses is the Western world’s best video game team and a leading new media agency with a client portfolio that includes such brands as Intel, Monster Energy, Razer, Kingston Technology, SkullCandy, and other major technology and consumer brands.

Surely the amount of sponsors for EG is reaching cheat-sheet-sticky-notes level for players to rattle off by now.

Wait, haven't EGTL been using the DXRacer chairs since the shared dorm was set up? Then why the announcement now? For the rest of EG? Nonetheless, grats to EG, those chairs look super comfy!

Woow this is so crazy when you think about it. "Needforseat" was a company with 2 employees and they expanded like crazy because of esport support. And as i saw today that they expanded to america i was just speechless.

EG is probably the best at randomly mentioning their sponsor so this was a good move for both imo

Let's just see an EG member get a tattoo with the sponsorships. It'll be like some horrible kill-sheet that gets crossed off and added to as sponsors join/leave. Congrats though in all seriousness.

Geez those chairs are expensive... I actually need a new chair, but I can't justify spending 300 bucks on one.
