Avalanche ownership group expands into esports

Related Topics: Overwatch League

News came out across esports media yesterday that Kroenke Sports and Entertainment have become the next sports ownership group to make the jump into the digital realm.

KSE will pick up a Los Angeles-based team for Blizzard’s upcoming Overwatch League. Overwatch League was announced months ago at last November’s Blizzcon and has been “coming soon” ever since, though the league has finally started taking shape recently and Blizzard expects play to get underway before the end of the year, according to The Score. This will mean recruiting and signing six top-level Overwatch players, probably a coach and/or subs.
