Razer has sponsored professional gamers for 12 years, starting with one of the most recognizable names in the industry, Jonathan “Fatal1ty” Wendel. As e-Sports transformed over time, so did Razer, culminating today with more than 50 teams on Team Razer—the world’s largest, most successful group of cyber athletes in the world.

Inspired by the Green Jacket in golf’s US Masters, we’re celebrating the continued dominance of Team Razer across all things e-Sports with the launch of our new Team Razer gear, reserved only for the highest performing members of Team Razer.

Team Razer Gear: awarded to those outstanding members of Team Razer who are true ambassadors of e-Sports and in recognition of their status as elite members of their particular game. These inspaniduals have earned their Team Razer Gear through great results in their respective disciplines and through contributions to their communities.

Team Razer Champion Jacket: Only champions will earn this jacket. Those entitled to this apparel will have competed in events around the globe with major victories under their belts. Those donning the elite pro-gaming gear are the top ambassadors of Team Razer and e-Sports.
