Case study: Ubisoft Gaming League

Saying that video games professionals are video games lovers is an understatement and Ubisoft employees won’t say otherwise…

image

Esport enthusiasts from Ubisoft Montréal started an in-house gaming league. It’s a common thing nowadays. But when most people will simply play during lunch time in the leisure area, the Ubisoft people went further.

The UGL (Ubisoft Gaming League) engages hundreds of former-colleagues-now-rivals over a wide array of Esport games – and not just the Ubisoft ones :

  • Rainbow Six Siege
  • Fifa
  • Rocket League
  • Just Dance
  • Mortal Kombat
  • Super Smash Bros
  • Street Fighter
  • Hearthstone
  • Heroes of the Storm
  • Starcraft
  • Dota 2
  • League of Legends

Growing through 3 seasons already, the UGL has now its dedicated stage, trophies, admins and casters. That’s what we call some serious dedication to competition! Maybe it has to do with the presence of several progamers among the Ubisoft workforce?

image

Anyway, we’re thrilled that the UGL picked Toornament to run all their competitions. They used every tools they could and came back to us with great feedback and requests specific to running toornaments for active people dealing with other schedules and agendas (yes, full time workers may have a job to deal with).

We love to see commited organizers on both pro and amateurs levels. Or in the case of UGL, “amateur level in a pro environment”. If you run an office league, we’ll be happy to help!
