In today’s episode of Investorideas “Betting on Gaming Stocks” Podcast we look at a few public company announcements.

 

Enthusiast Gaming Holdings Inc. (TSX: EGLX) (OTCQB: ENGMF), today announced that it has launched its eighth series for Snapchat called “Luminosity Plays.” The weekly series, which aired its first episode on November 5, will feature content from some of the world’s top gamers on the Luminosity Gaming roster, including: Anomaly, Fresh, xQc and others.

 

“Luminosity Plays” adds to Enthusiast Gaming’s successful track record of programming on Snapchat, with seven existing gaming shows coming before it, which collectively have reached nearly 9.5 million unique viewers in October 2020. Its long-running show “The Countdown,” a gaming news series with new episodes airing every other day, has 2.1 million subscribers and averages over 1 million viewers per episode. Luminosity Gaming’s additional shows on Snapchat include three series from ArcadeCloud including “The Squad,” “Block Squad” and “ArcadeCloud Originals,” “BCC,” a twice a week Fortnite highlights show, “Best COD Clips,” a weekly Call of Duty highlights show and “GTA Today,” a twice a week Grand Theft Auto highlights series.

 

“As one of Snap’s key gaming content partners, we’re thrilled to continue expanding our mobile programming with them by creating new, engaging shows for our millions of gaming fans on Snapchat,” said Adrian Montgomery, chief executive officer of Enthusiast Gaming. “The success of our content on Snapchat also further solidifies the massive growth and upward trajectory of gaming in the entertainment world and we’re looking forward to building that future with Snap.”

 

Luminosity Gaming, owned by Enthusiast Gaming, is one of the leading esports organizations in North America with some of the top esports influencers and creators with a collective social following of over 70 million fans. Its talent roster includes the likes of xQc, Anomaly, Muselk, RockyNoHands, Fresh, Chica, Nick Eh 30 and more, along with honorary celebrity members including Richard Sherman and Darius Slay.

 

Spoon, the world’s leading audio live stream platform, today announced it has partnered with OP.GG, the leading site for online player and team statistics, insights, and leaderboards, to produce the weekly live-streamed series, “GGnoRE.” The interactive series will bring together fans and professional esports athletes across the biggest titles in gaming for an hour each week.

 

“Launching the series with Spoon gives us another key touchpoint to connect with our esports community,” said Sangrak Choi, CEO of OP.GG. “The platform’s interactive format and focus on audio bridges professional athletes and the broader gaming community together to celebrate the art of the sport, engage in authentic conversations, and connect with the human being behind the keyboard.”

 

Spoon and OP.GG are introducing an industry-first interactive audio live stream, giving esports enthusiasts another medium to celebrate the sport. For Spoon’s first venture into original programming, the platform will utilize its unique audio-only approach to provide an inclusive, judgement-free environment for both streamers and listeners. Tapping into OP.GG’s esports analysis and gaming community, “GGnoRE” will discuss top teams, strategies, and tournament performances.

 

“It’s an exciting time for the esports community,” said Fernando Pizarro, Vice President of North America for Spoon. “We’re witnessing a huge marriage between the gaming and live streaming communities today, and there has never been a better time to invest in gamer-first content––making this a great first foray for us into original programming.”

 

“GGnoRE'' will take place on Spoon’s live streaming audio app to provide a relaxed, natural conversation using solely the magic of voice. “GGnoRE” goes beyond just the stats. It dives into the life journeys and experiences of the players, team managers, and the esports industry more broadly.

 

Spoon has tapped veteran entertainment producer Clint Sears to launch its latest venture. “Interactive media has certainly seen a rise across the industry and I’m thrilled to help spearhead the first-of-its-kind show,” said Clint Sears, executive producer of “GGnoRE.” “Spoon’s audio platform is a breakthrough for user-driven entertainment, and its content provides unparalleled interactivity that users, especially in the burgeoning esports community, love.”

 

To participate in the weekly live stream, audience members can download the Spoon app and visit spoonrad.io/GGnoRE, or tune into spooncast.net and join the “GGnoRE” live stream from the homepage. From there, they can listen in, chat, and engage with other listeners as well as with the host, actor Ben Stillwell (Grey's Anatomy, Teen Wolf), and the show’s guest star.

Listeners can also find a recording after the fact, distributed anywhere podcasts are available, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Honda (NYSE:HMCtoday gave the world its first glimpse of the all-new 2022 Civic on Twitch, the world's leading live streaming entertainment service. The new Civic, shown in prototype form in a striking new colour, Solar Flare Pearl, showcases a fresh, sporty and upscale new look for Honda's iconic and immensely popular Civic.

 

The 11th-generation Civic draws inspiration from timeless elements of Honda design, including a low and wide stance, low beltline, clean and sophisticated detailing, and an open and airy cabin.

 

The prototype model unveiled today presages the arrival of an all-new Civic lineup, beginning late spring 2021, with the launch of the Civic Sedan followed by the sporty and personal Civic Hatchback, performance-focused Civic Si, and the ultimate high-performance Civic: Type R.

Leveraging its strong presence in esports and gaming, Honda's debut on Twitch is a nod to Civic's industry-leading and global appeal with young buyers. The 10th-generation Civic has

been an unparalleled success – Canada's most popular car 22 years running.

 

The 11th-generation Civic will build on that appeal with an even sportier, fun-to-drive new chassis, more powerful and fuel-efficient powertrains, multiple new Civic-first features and technologies, and further advances in active and passive safety features and performance.

 

"There are a number of reasons Civic is Canada's best-selling car for 22 straight years. Its quality and reliability are unmatched, it is among the safest vehicles in its class, it caters to a variety of needs and lifestyles, and is built in Canada," says Jean Marc Leclerc, President and CEO Honda Canada. "The all-new Civic will continue to be the standard for compact cars with enhanced styling, safety features and above all, driver enjoyment."

 

TGS Esports Inc. (TSXV: TGSannounced that, further to its news release of October 7, 2020 it has entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Volcanic Media Inc., a leader in scholastic and grassroots Canadian esports.

 

The Acquisition is the latest step in TGS' corporate growth strategy and adds a scholastic division to the Company with a focus on events, leagues, and in-class programs for High Schools and Post-Secondary Institutions. It is expected that Volcanic will utilize Pepper Esports Inc.'s ("Pepper") platform and TGS' esports expertise to further the development of an all in one esports experience under the TGS banner.

 

Volcanic has been at the forefront of scholastic esports including awarding high school esports scholarships and creating inter-district high school esports leagues, both firsts of their kind in Canada. Volcanic have also started work on indigenous esports efforts, previously working with Binche Keyoh First Nations for pilot esports programs.

 

TGS also announced that, as part of this new partnership, all high schools looking to utilize Volcanic will be able to do so absolutely free with no fees paid by schools or students. Interested schools can reach out to Shawn Caldera: shawn@volcanic.gg.

 

Acquisition Highlights

       The Acquisition is expected to drive over 200,000 new users to TGS through scholastic leagues, tournaments, and in-class programs.

       The new users will feed into TGS' online platform, Pepper Esports, which adds to TGS' overall strategy of having one central ecosystem that creates an unparalleled esports experience.

       The Acquisition has the potential to put TGS at the forefront of High School esports in Canada and offer TGS an all new scholastic division led by Shawn Caldera and JP Perez of Volcanic.

        

"Taking the next step in this process with Shawn and his team is very exciting," said Spiro Khouri, CEO of TGS. "The opportunity to bring scholastic programs into the fold presents large opportunities for our company. The utilization of Pepper for these programs truly showcases that TGS is able to offer an all in one esports solution to anyone, regardless of age or location."

 

"Volcanic was created to provide high quality esports events in the scholastic space. Now being able to utilize Pepper's platform and TGS' expertise in events and production takes us to the next level. We cannot wait to connect with schools all over Canada and show what we can do, for free!" said Shawn Caldera, President of Volcanic.
