A new League of Legends team appears to be taking off after European plane manufacturing giants, Airbus, announced they will sponsor a League of Legends team called 'Out Of The Blue.'

No details about the LoL esports team have been announced, leaving many to wonder if the announcement was accidental - especially as it came through their careers Twitter account, not their main or press accounts.

It is not known what league the team will play in but with Airbus' European routes, it will most likely be the EU LCS or EU Challenger Series.

This isn't the first time Airbus have shown an interest in esports as they sent their recruitment team to ESWC Summer earlier this year.

They also won't be the first LoL team to be sponsored by company associated with aircraft. South Korean airline Jin Air have their own LCK team, Jin Air Green Wings.

The benefits of sponsoring an esports team for plane manufactures may not seem obvious at first but esports are a global phenomenal, players are always travelling all around the world for different tournaments.

If Out Of The Blue are fortunate enough to qualify for any international tournaments, it's safe to say they'll be traveling in style.
