Ukraine-based esports viewership analytics platform Esports Charts announced Wednesday that it has partnered with international tournament organizer StarLadder for the new season of StarLadder StarSeries Season 19.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Serving as the official analytics partner of StarLadder StarSeries Season 19, Esports Charts will provide organizers with “real-time audience data and insights throughout the event for a deeper understanding of the tournament’s global reach.”
StarLadder StarSeries Season 19 is tentatively set to take place from Sept. 18 – 21, in Budapest, Hungary, and will offer a total prize pool of $500,000 USD. Eight Counter-Strike 2 teams will participate in the competition: Natus Vincere, B8 Esports, Passion UA, 9INE, PARIVISION, OG, and Gentle Mates.
This new partnership comes on the heels of a deal it announced with StarLadder in July for the Starladder Budapest Major. Taking place at the 20,000-seat MVM Dome in Budapest, Hungary, this competition will feature 32 of the world’s best Counter-Strike 2 teams competing for a chunk of the $1.25 million total prize pool. The competition is set to run from Nov. 24 – Dec. 14.
Earlier this month Esports Charts announced that it had signed a partnership deal with the esports division of GeoGuessr.
