Razer Rising Stars series with $64,600

Your Esports Entertainment will be organizing leagues for lower-tier teams in four regions—Europe, South-East Asia, North America and South America—called Razer Rising Stars, which will hand out up to $64,600 in total.

Razer Rising Stars League, which will be held in four different regions across the world, is aimed at lower-tier teams who have yet to prove themselves and designed to promote new talent, according to Your Esports Entertainment CEO, Mohamed "Availer" Zardab.

The official press release also stated that organizers are hoping that in the future, teams involved in the league will become shareholders to share in the profits of the league, so that both the league and its teams rise at the same pace.
