Scott San Emeterio, BallStreet CEO, said: “We are elated for the opportunity to work with Riot Games and offer a real-time competitive experience to fans of North American TFT esports. Our focus will be on understanding the TFT audience and making sure we are enhancing their viewing experience.

BallStreet has seen its engagement levels grow considerably in recent months. San Emeterio added, “After GameStop Mania, we’ve seen more interest than ever before in trading, and there’s a continued demand for products that help elevate the sports and gaming fan experience.  BallStreet Trading is a combination of both interest areas, and we feel competitive TFT is the perfect game to guide the future of fantasy gaming in esports. We are extremely grateful for this opportunity.”
