Gfinity kicks off Season 2 this November
Are you having withdrawls from the Gfinity series that debuted back in June, well worry not as it has been announced today that the Gfinity Elite Series Australia, presented by Alienware, returns for its second season of 2018, kicking off Saturday 3 November.
The competition displayed in season 1 was well received by local esports fans, who tuned in regularly to barrack for their favourite clubs. Gfinity Elite Series Season 1 delivered higher average viewership and average minutes watched per broadcast than League of Legends OPL at the same time of year. Audiences are embracing the multi-game format, and Dominic Remond, Chief Executive Officer for Gfinity Esports Australia is confident the popularity will continue.
“Melbourne ORDER’s dominant victory last season has set the tone for Season 2”, said Dominic Remond, Gfinity Esports Australia’s CEO. “We expect to see old rivalries reignited, Melbourne ORDER have a target on their back, and with roster changes across the clubs, fans are in for our most competitive season yet. Aussies love a dark horse, and now we have five.”
Returning city-based clubs Sydney Chiefs, Sydney Roar, Melbourne Avant, Melbourne ORDER, Brisbane Deceptors and Perth Ground Zero have all drafted their rosters for Season 2, drawing the pool of talented draftees from the recent Gfinity Challenger Series.
