Further content pieces scheduled include ‘<\/span>Coaching After Dark’\u00a0<\/b>a four-part, live-stream series featuring Team Liquid’s League of Legends coaches and talent delivering one-on-one ‘chalk talks’ and strategy sessions to two aspiring professionals. Plus, a podcast-style show featuring\u00a0Team Liquid\u2019s LCS roster, coaching staff, and more, is also planned.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
During Coaching After Dark fans will also have the chance to win special giveaways while tuning in.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Team Liquid Co-CEO Steve Arhancet<\/b> added: “We\u2019re big fans of how Bud Light continues to make an impact within the space. So, let’s kick things off, tailgate with our fans and bring them closer to our League team \u2013 as we compete for another championship!”<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
The esports organisation has also confirmed that other LCS-related streams featuring Team Liquid athletes and content creators will occur throughout the year on Bud Light’s Twitch channel.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Bud Light has made a concentrated effort to be more deeply ingrained in esports over the last two years. The American beer brand has since inked partnership agreements with the Overwatch League, NBA 2K League, Magic Gaming, Fnatic, and the LCS.<\/span><\/p>\n
Esports Insider says: Bud Light has the strongest market share in esports of all beer brands currently, or previously, involved in the industry. In addition to the volume of deals it has executed, the content Bud Light has produced alongside its partners shows this is a company that \u2018gets\u2019 esports – and in this business that goes a hell of a long way.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
