THIS IS TEAM RAZER
As the second largest Esports game by total prize pool as of 2018, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is a multiplayer first-person shooter that’s a mainstay competitive title familiar to many gamers. With one of the most viewed and active pro-tournament circuits, we’re proud to introduce the CS:GO teams under our Team Razer banner—Evil Geniuses, MIBR, and Mousesports.
Evil Geniuses is a professional gaming organization based in the US, with their newly acquired CS:GO line-up consisting of Brehze, CeRq, Ethan, Stanislaw, and Tarik. With a seven-year hiatus from the Counter-Strike scene, EG has returned with a bang. Hot off their recent championship win at ESL One: New York 2019, the team are serious contenders going into IEM Beijing 2019.
MIBR (Made in Brazil) is a Brazilian Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team that has been pushing out consistent, high-level performance ever since its formation. With the recent inclusion of LUCAS1 and kNgV- to the core roster of FalleN, fer and TACO, the all-Brazilian line-up are eager to build on their legacy of impressive first place finishes and trophies.
Founded in 2002, Mousesports—or “mouz” for short—is a professional Counter-Strike: Global Offensive organization based in Germany. Their current roster consists of chrisJ, ropz, woxic, frozen, and karrigan. With numerous titles such as ESL One: New York 2018 and ESG Tour Mykonos 2017, Mousesports has been a staple amongst the best European CS:GO teams, and their commanding performances this year are setting them up nicely for IEM Beijing 2019.
Beyond the packed stadiums, flashy buzzwords and million-dollar prizes, lies the real soul of esports. It’s the discipline to train non-stop and develop the strategy and skills to bend your opponent to your will. It’s the camaraderie and bonds made between teammates, fans and countrymen as you experience painful losses and the euphoria of victory. And most of all, it’s the never-ending drive and passion to keep competing—and win.
This is Esports.
This is #TeamRazer.
Across different game genres and platforms—from PC, to console to mobile gaming—Team Razer is a collective of the best teams and Esports athletes around the world. We are the elite and have the wins to prove it. But what really unites us isn’t the flashy trophies, but that we all share the same fire. No matter how many wins or losses the night before, we still get up every day to put in 100% again and again, because a true winner has no limits.

Esports is now a global phenomenon and breaking new records every day—but it didn’t happen overnight. What started from LAN parties has evolved to tiny competitions with more contestants than audience, to maxed-out stadiums and online viewership that dwarfs other traditional sports. And Razer was there since the beginning—backing events and sponsoring Team Razer Esports athletes.
Check out our milestones below.
Year 2000, the year that started it all. From sponsoring Cyber Athlete Professional League (CPL) with $100,000—an unprecedented amount at the time—to partnering with one of the world’s first pro gamers, Johnathan “Fatal1ty” Wendel, we began to make our mark on the Esports scene.

As competitive gaming grew, so did our pool of elite Esports athletes. With teams like Team Liquid and LGD Gaming, and athletes like SlayerS_BoxeR and Method coming on board, we expanded to over 50 teams competing in dominant titles, and just kept on growing. In 2012, we formed a singular banner to spotlight the world’s elite Esports athletes—Team Razer.

Team Razer started to dominate. In 2013, Team Alliance took home US$1.43 million at The International 3, the biggest Dota 2 competition at the time. Just two years later, SK Telecom T1 secured their 3rd consecutive win in the 2016 League of Legends World Championship, clinching US$2 million in prize money. This cemented their status as the world’s most dominating League of Legends team.
