SAW is a well-known Portuguese esports organisation founded in 2020 by former members of Giants Gaming.

The organisation is very successful locally and regionally in VALORANT and Counter-Strike, winning trophies across both games. The SAW VALORANT roster notably finished fourth at the VCT Ascension EMEA 2023, and its CS team won the likes of Master League Portugal and ESL Masters Espana.

The casino game itself was developed together with SAW’s partner Solverde, a large gambling company from Portugal. Solverde is the main partner of the esports organisation and works with SAW to create content.

The company’s logo is also featured on the players’ jerseys and more. In addition, the company works with several Portuguese football clubs and often creates custom games for its partners and clients.

The game’s theme is Counter-Strike, with its design incorporating elements such as guns and cases which are well-known to CS fans. SAW has also incorporated its Counter-Strike roster into the online slot machine.

The overall idea of the game is the same as with any slot game: players spin the machine and have a chance to earn money. The companies claim that this is the first time an esports organisation has created a slot machine not only in Portugal but in esports in general.

SAW shared the following statement via a release: “This is another big step in the SAW story, which once again reinforces its leadership in the Portuguese gaming market and expands into the online world, taking esports a little further.”
