ESL removes Intel website logo

20-2-2010 19:06

The Electronic Sports League has removed Intel's logo from the sponsorship area on its German website.

The German-based organisation has pointed out it was an intentional move from their part, rather than a display bug.

The ESL plans to announce two headsponsors for the future, but it is unknown whether Intel, which has been the main sponsor of the European section since 2006, will be part of the duo.

Although Intel's logo has only been removed from the German website, the ESL indicates the new sponsorship deals will specially have an impact upon the international section.

It is likely that ASUS, the main supporter of the upcoming European Nations Championship, will become one of the ESL's head sponsors.

its is correct. Their is incorrect. Their is for more than one individual. ESL is first of all a singular object. Not a person, nor is it more than one person.

intel support a lot of teams, it's more of a conflict to sponsor teams and Events. As long as they get someone to replace them, the world will not end :)
