JD Gaming has announced the establishment of a mobile gaming team. Their focus will be to collaborate with manufacturers of gaming phones to enhance their offerings based on consumer data.
Homme is in charge of leading his former Worlds 2022 team that featured top laner Bai “369” Jia-hao and jungler Seo “Kanavi” Jin-hyeok as well as support Missing.
League of Legends
League of Legends is an acclaimed multiplayer online battle arena video game created and published by Riot Games. A global phenomenon, its esports scene regularly eclipses some of the longest-established professional sports leagues when it comes to viewership and participation rates.
The Esports scene for Fortnite is dominated by the World Championship, an annual tournament since 2011. As one of the largest esports tournaments worldwide with an audience reach of 44 Million viewers per event.
JD Gaming will be led in 2023 by Park “LokeN” Jae-hyuk and Zhuo “knight” Ding, as well as newcomer Lzq and veteran players such as 369, Kanavi and Missing. Their tournament schedule will include LPL Spring Split, 2023 International Wildcard Invitational and 2022 World Championship, with each game featuring five players assigned a specific role such as top laner, jungler or mid laner.
Dota 2
Dota 2 is an action RTS game that blends elements of real-time strategy with tower defense elements, making for an engaging gameplay experience. As the official successor to Warcraft III mod Defense of the Ancients (DotA), Dota 2 was designed by Icefrog (original designer of DotA mod). Available through Steam as a free-to-play title.
This game involves two competing teams of five players each, where each team controls an unique hero with special characteristics and abilities that can be improved upon throughout the course of play. Complex strategy comes into play here involving decisions like when and how best to buy items and upgrade skills of your hero.
Dota 2 has become one of the world’s most beloved esports titles, boasting incredible prize pools at events like The International. Its audience comprises socially active young adults who are keen on attending offline championships and purchasing Dota merchandise – providing brands an ideal opportunity to connect with them at emotional moments through Dota tournament integration.
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive expands upon the team-based first person shooter gameplay that was pioneered 19 years ago when it first released. Online matches feature weapons, gear, and grenades used against teams of other players from across the globe in an intense multiplayer setting. Furthermore, this title boasts a robust esports scene featuring sold-out arena games that broadcast to millions of viewers globally.
JD Gaming hopes this weekend’s match against Top Esports can help them move from anonymity and prove they can compete with LPL heavyweights such as iG and FunPlus Phoenix. JD is currently favored with American odds format at -220; should they win, winning bets would pay out $135 for every $100 wagered, including initial wager. Jungler Seo “Kanavi” Jin-hyeok from JD has an immense amount to prove; after only making his competitive league debut last season but quickly becoming one of its premier junglers!
Starcraft 2
Four years after the end of the Brood War, Dominion forces dominate Koprulu Sector. Jim Raynor leads an insurgent group known as Raiders to overthrow Dominion Emperor Arcturus Mengsk; on Mar Sara he meets an old acquaintance named Tychus Findlay who becomes his ally and support.
StarCraft 2 by Blizzard represents an attempt at taking real time strategy gaming to new heights, featuring new units, graphics updates and an engaging story that rivals anything in its scope from StarCraft 1.
JD Gaming have set an early pace this summer and remain undefeated in the league, holding off some of its premier teams like Top Esports (LPL spring finalists), Edward Gaming (defending world champions) and others to remain unbeaten thus far.
