“I am thrilled that we are finally partnering up with Logitech G. We have been playing with their gear for the entire season now, and it’s really just state-of-the-art when it comes to both the look and feel as well as the sheer quality of the product. It makes me happy to be a part of an organization that goes above and beyond for us to create the perfect performance setup. This partnership is really about that, because we will now be able to utilize all that Logitech G can do to its fullest.”
