Flipster just levelled up its esports playbook, locking in a major partnership as the official crypto exchange partner for PSG TALON‘s League of Legends team. 

This isn’t the Crypto trading platform’s first move into esports. Back in May 2025, Flipster successfully rebranded TALON’s Dota 2 team as Flipster Talon. Now the company is pushing deeper into competitive gaming’s most watched title.

Gaming Meets Global Fandom

By pitching its tents with PSG TALON, the ecrypto exchange can pull multiple levers. Flipster gains access to a global audience of gaming fans through various activation channels, including personalised video calls, limited-edition memorabilia and even watch parties during tournaments.

“We’re proud to grow our partnership with Flipster,” said Sean Zhang, CEO of TALON. “They bring fresh perspective and genuine care for the fan experience. Together, we’re creating something different, and PSG TALON fans will be the first to feel it.”

PSG TALON’s League of Legends team was formed as a collaboration between Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) Esports and Talon Esports, a Hong Kong-based organisation. This team dominated the Pacific Championship Series (PCS) prior to its major rebranding to the LCP and has become a regular in the World Championship.

PSG and TALON completed its long-standing League of Legends partnership in January, however, the partnership was later rekindled earlier this month.

The recent partnership between Flipster and PSG TALON confirms the notion that crypto and esports keep drawing closer. In the past, the industry has seen the likes of Coinbase team up with ESL Gaming, and NIP Group venture into cryptocurrency mining.

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.
