Asian esports organisation Talon Esports has announced a partnership with gaming chair manufacturer Secretlab.

The deal will see the manufacturer become the Official Chair Partner of the Talon Esports VALORANT roster currently competing in the VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT) Pacific League.

In addition to supporting Talon Esports’ VALORANT roster, the two parties will collaborate to produce a content series throughout the duration of the 2023 VCT season. The first part of the series will focus on the team’s top-eight finish at the recent LOCK//IN tournament that took place in São Paulo, Brazil.

The deal marks a change in seating partner for the organisation. In 2020, Talon Esports joined forces with Recaro to provide its players and staff with its range of gaming chairs before getting comfortable with Secretlab this month.

Aside from VALORANT, Talon Esports competes in a variety of esports titles that includes League of Legends through a collaboration with Paris Saint-Germain, Rainbow Six: Siege, and Street Fighter V.

For Secretlab, the partnership is another addition to its extensive portfolio. Over the last 12 months, the manufacturer has partnered with the likes of Team Vitality, Echo Esports, and the Esports Awards.

“Through this partnership, we hope to set them up for greater success, equipping them with our pro-grade chairs for peak performance and ergonomics.”

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
