LG Electronics is continuing to make its name as one of the premier brands in esports with a new partnership with top esports organization Gen.G’s League of Legends division.

LG’s UltraGear gaming monitors have become a standard-setter as far as esports and gaming is concerned, and they’ve been working to fully immerse themselves into the community through multiple ventures.

Not only are they creating their monitors with competitive gamers in mind, but they’ve also run tournaments with top streamers such as xQc and TimTheTatman.

Now, they’re supporting one of the biggest esports teams in the world with their UltraGear monitors: Gen.G’s Korean League of Legends team.
