The first of which is our launch raffle where we will be giving away a Razer Blackwidow Tournament Stealth Edition to one lucky member.



In conjunction to our public release, we are also sponsoring the League of Legends Challenger competitors, now known as, Team 8 (@TeamEightx). The players are living together in a newly formed team house and are training vigorously to attempt LCS 2014 qualification. In the Coke Zero tournament, they will be facing vVv. If they win, they'll be pitted against LMQ.iBUYPOWER. These players have tremendous talent, and we're proud to be a part of their journey in League of Legends.



The roster is as follows:





Phalamony 'Guess8' Lee: I'm 20 years old, and have been playing League of Legends for about 2 and a half years now. I started to look more into competitive play after I hit Challenger in LoL for the first time and realized I just might have potential.





Jun 'Dodo8' Kang: I'm 24 years old, born in South Korea, and have lived in California since 2000. I've played MOBA games for the past 10 years, starting from DOTA and moving to HoN and then eventually to LoL. I played HoN professionally with EG, and my goal is to play professionally in League of Legends as well. @dodo8lol





Andrew 'Slooshi8' Pham: I'm 18 years old, and I'm from Orange County California where i grew up in garden grove. I started playing simple MMORPG games like Runescape, Maplestory, and WoW. I eventually got into DotA and HoN. I participated in many tournaments and lans for HoN and developed my skill there; this translated with my switch to LoL and was much easier to learn because of my MOBA history. My goal in LoL is to challenge myself with the best people in the game, and to constantly get better. I hope to someday make LCS where i can play my favorite game for a living. @Slooshi8





Jae Hyung 'Chu8' Park: I am 25 and Korean, but spent half my life in Toronto, Canada where I got into gaming. Most of them being MOBA (DOTA,HoN,LoL). My goal is to make a career out of my passion that is gaming. @chustreaming





Brian 'Yung RicheRich8' Nguyen: I'm 19 years old, and from Orange County California where I grew up in Garden Grove. DOTA was the first game that peeked my interests and I've played the game since I was a 10 year old. I participated in in-house Leagues at that age as well and was introduced to League of Legends by my friends. My goal is to become the best top laner in North America, which I hope to accomplish through hard work and playing the game religiously. @LoLRicheRich
