If you have watched, played, or supported PUBG Esports in any way this year, thank you.
I’m thinking about starting a Reddit thread to gather feedback, answer questions, and hear from the community. Let me know if you think there’s a more effective approach.
I just received news that my father passed away last night after a gun related incident. I can’t really describe how I feel yet, but I felt obligated to let you all know.
I am extremely excited and happy to announce that today was my first day at PUBG as the new Global League Operations Manager. Can’t wait to dive in and really get started on shaping the future of PUBG esports. So grateful and blessed to have this opportunity. 🎉
Reading and gathering your feedback on today's
@PUBGEsports
announcement. All constructive and substantial comments will be shared and discussed internally.
PUBG Esports Americas plans are coming together. We have approved an online tournament series, and we are working with our partners to get this up and running to fill the immediate need.
I am beyond excited to announce that this past week was my first as the
@H1Z1ProLeague
General Manager at
@TwinGalaxies
.
H1PL will be a groundbreaking and innovative league built on real developer support and collaboration with teams, players, and partners.
We believe that hosting regular, online competitions will play a pivotal role in growing the PUBG esports community in the Americas region. We're narrowing down our list of platforms we should work with. Who do you want to see on there? 🤔
We are pulling together some plans to launch online tournaments for the Americas region in the very near future to help fill some of this downtime. We’ll try to share more about this by the end of the week!
PUBG esports news is starting to roll out across the world. More for NA, LATAM, and OCE coming in the morning. We'll be on bright and early to try to answer your questions. See you there!
Now that the first
#PUBGEsports
2021 announcement is live, I am so happy to finally share that we are combining North America and Latin America to create the Americas region. You asked for it!

I'm genuinely in disbelief writing this. Today is the day I have officially closed on my new house and received the keys. I'm so incredibly proud to introduce you all to Fort Small. 🏠🔑
Life Update: Over the weekend I signed a contract to buy a new condo in Los Angeles. It is not yet built, and it will be a long 6-8 months of waiting, but I am so excited. Welcome to the future home of Fort Small.🏠
We will be paying out a total of $180,000 equally across all sixteen teams (8 NA, 5 LATAM, and 3 OCE) that qualified for our PGS Berlin: Americas Qualifier. This means that each team will receive $11,250.00!
We promised improvements after Day 1. For Day 2 and beyond, we are bringing in
@LilFuzzySeal
who we’ve loved working with as an in-game observer on our community broadcasts. He’ll be joining our obs team and helping to lead the charge to an even stronger show today!
Hey friends, there will be a lot of
#PUBGEsports
information coming out in the next few days and beyond. I'll try my best to answer any questions or comments you may have. Keep an eye out! 👊
Thinking hiring a marketing / social media contractor would go a long way to support some upcoming
@PUBGEsports
projects. Wonder if any qualified community members are interested?

Thanks for the thoughtful responses. I can’t respond to all of you (I wish I could!), but I can assure you your feedback is being shared and discussed. 👊
I am no longer working with Twin Galaxies or the H1Z1 Pro League.
Thank you to the teams, players, and fans for making my time with H1Z1 so special. I wish you all the best.
Excited to see where my esports journey takes me from here. Can’t wait to share my plans with you. 👍
We are committed to listening to feedback, and we fully recognize the necessity to improve our communication with teams and players. This is the first step.
We've heard your feedback about the NA roster requirement. NA rosters will only be required to have 2 players from NPL Phase 3. For more details please see our updated blog post.
Feels good to finally host a North American PUBG Esports broadcast again. Thanks to everyone for tuning in today. Definitely need to improve in a few areas which we are working hard to address. See you tomorrow for Day 2!
Thank you all for the birthday wishes. I genuinely appreciate it. I'm spending my birthday at the office doing what I love most - working on esports. I was surprised to see some ice cream waiting for me at my desk. 🍨🥳🎉
I actually cannot believe that today concludes our final 2020 PCS broadcast in North America. As a team, we've overcome some of the most incredible obstacles this year, and I have the highest confidence that we will continue to grow and improve in the future.
I am thrilled to finally announce this partnership with
@ESL
. I believe this program clearly indicates our desire and commitment to work with prestigious third-party organizers to enhance and enrich the PUBG Esports ecosystem.
Ping will always be a talking point for combined NA/LATAM online events, but I'm glad the community is recognizing the value of events like this despite the ping differences.
✅English, Spanish, Portuguese streams
✅Higher viewership
✅Higher skill
✅Regional rivalries
These are some of the most fun to watch games in NA for a while imo. I know ping is a bit of an issue but for the competitiveness and viewer appeal of the games maybe consider merging the two in main leagues next year?👀

I’m so excited to end the year with an event by DreamHack. It’s been a pleasure working with the DH team to bring this idea to life, and I can’t wait to watch NA vs LATAM at this event.
Fans and players, what do you think? 🤔

We said goodbye to my uncle, James, over Easter weekend. I am grateful to have had the chance to fly to Texas to spend a moment with him before he passed. He is a true role model, and I am blessed to have had him in my life. Rest in paradise.
I personally really enjoyed the addition of the LCQ. What did you all think? The mechanism to determine the split between NA and LATAM in the Grand Final made this really interesting to watch. Thoughts?
We recently launched a beta website to promote PUBG events, and we need your help getting it filled up.
@303esports
, I'm looking at you! 👀
Have something to promote? Let us know!
Curious to know who may be interested in working closely with me on a 3 month project for Str8 Rippin. Paid position for operations and general management. Just looking to explore options at the moment. DMs are open.
The PCS NA Charity Showdown is right around the corner (May 21-24). Can't wait to see these 16 teams compete in our first major NA event of the year. Congrats to everyone for qualifying.
We've been reading and discussing 100% of the feedback we received on last week's announcement. We'll be providing more explanation and clarification throughout the week. Let us know if there are any specific questions or concerns.
We are committed to listening to feedback, and we fully recognize the necessity to improve our communication with teams and players. This is the first step.
With each PCS event, we are exploring more and more ways to enrich the in-game esports tab, pick'em challenge, and PCS-branded items. Hope that you all are enjoying it!
As always, feel free to keep sharing your ideas and feedback. Excited to see how these initiatives develop.
#PCS1
boasted a prize pool of over $1.3m, and the

Can the reigning teams win their share of the pot again, or go home without the top prize?

I hope you all are feeling good about the improvements and progress we have made this year. Honored to see our name return to this list along with other incredible publishers. 🙏
