Just in time for CPL Summer, Razer launched a new program to provide sponsorship to those who don’t have the connections to get sponsored through other channels.

Called “Go Pro With Razer,” the program promises a bevy of different sponsorship levels to selected gamers, including apparel, product sponsorships to live events, and salaries.

In order to land these deals, you need to meet certain requirements. First, you need to be using Razer peripherals already. Second, you need to place top three in three live gaming events. Additionally, the winning team in the World in Conflict competition at CPL can choose to accept a $20,000 sponsorship from Razer, which includes travel and product sponsorship.

Texas publisher Gamecock and Australian developer Auran found the perfect place to market their new game, Fury. At CPL Summer, we’ll see Pandemic, one of the top World of Warcraft teams in the world, take on Flow Gaming, a well-known FPS team, with $4,000 on the line.

GGL Wire contacted Pandemic’s Jared “vhell” Coulston for some insight into the match.

“I spoke with one of the [Flow] members that will be playing; they’re as new to the game as we are,” said Coulston. “We have a few friends that followed the game and played all the weekend events, so they’re coaching us at the moment. Hopefully that’ll give us the edge we need since the game heavily depends on what character builds your team runs.”

Coulston added that  Fury is “really really fast compared to WoW. Every part of it.”

Fury is supposed to be a fusion of FPS and MMO gaming, so it’s only right that we get to see matches up close and personal. Pandemic vs. Flow Gaming will be broadcast on fury.esportstv.com starting Friday, Aug. 30. at 7PM EST.

If you haven’t been following the news behind Fury, it’s a PVP MMO game that promises no grinding. Instead, you level up through PVP matches (as opposed to committing mass genocide against Duskbats and Kobolds).
