“I am incredibly excited to be here at Counter Logic Gaming. For the past two months I have been working with the players, coaches, and analysts. We’ve observed many areas of growth that we will be addressing in the coming months. Fans can expect a new CLG in 2017.”
In another announcement on the same day, it was revealed that John Spiher will be CLG’s Head of Business Development. He said: “I’m honored to be part of the Counter Logic Gaming family. We have so many exciting products and experiences for our fans in the coming months. The real golden age starts now.”
Esports Insider: CLG are very well established in the scene already. Recruiting someone with vast experience in traditional sports but with a great passion for esports should be a great move. We with both CLG and Matt the best of luck going into 2017.
