Esports Insider says: Advocate is making a name for itself among brands, esports teams, and streamers. In a world where everyone is bombarded with ads from all angles, it’s important for brands to stand out and understand why a campaign works (or doesn’t). In esports, the community is king so it’s no wonder that so many esports orgs have made strategic marketing platform deals like this one to stay relevant.
