The European esports organization 9INE has partnered with the esports competition platform FACEIT to support the organization's Polish fanbase. The fandom of 9INE will gain a moderated space on FACEIT, allowing fans of the organization to connect with like-minded people more easily.
Additionally, among other things, 9INE will be able to run tournaments on the site and sell merchandise in the FACEIT store. Polish-speaking players will find it easier to locate matches and teammates thanks to the creation of the 9INE Clan, a controlled community for fans on the platform. 9INE will plan tournaments on the FACEIT platform, offering participants the chance to win 9INE products, cash, and points.
"[...] Our successes in the esports industry speaks for itself and we’re confident that teaming up with FACEIT would bring a whole new level of benefits to both parties. We’re eager to explore this opportunity further and see how we can make the most of it together," said Fredrik Belstad, CEO at 9INE.
