Dice Media announces India’s first Esports web series, Clutch
Share Share ShareShare

Mumbai: Adding a new genre to their creative playbook, Dice Media launched India’s first esports-based web series presented by Legion from Lenovo and LOCO. ‘Clutch’ taps into the growing love for gaming in India, by showcasing an underdog team of esports enthusiasts who compete for a massive esports tournament. Legion from Lenovo and LOCO organically augmented the storyline by integrating with their latest Legion products and esports broadcasting features respectively, making them the preferred collaborators for ‘Clutch’.

The esports drama revolves around a professional gamer Arun (Vishal Vashishtha), who quits professional gaming only to find his way back to it. He brings together a team of misfits played by Ahsaas Channa, Saurabh Ghadge, Pratiek Pachauri, and Tirth Joisher, that compete for the esports tournament as ‘Team Clutch’. While working together does not come easy to them, their dedication to win the tournament stands the test of time. What makes the series more exciting is the cameo of popular, real-life Indian streamers like Thug, Scout, Mamba, and Ghatak in special appearances. Gaming fans identify with these streamers as esports athletes and would be thrilled to see their performance in an esports-based web series.

The show’s lead characters Arun and Raunak are seen using Lenovo Legion 5 Pro and Legion 7 laptops along with several Lenovo accessories, marking the brand’s debut into the content industry. Legion 7 powered by AMD Ryzen processor was newly launched through Clutch in India, while Legion 5 Pro was recently released. The laptops live up to their ‘Stylish Outside, Savage Inside’ nature, making them the ideal dual-purpose professional and gaming laptops. Brands, today are leveraging innovative content media formats like these to weave their messaging into the narrative in a meaningful manner.

LOCO on the other hand seamlessly complements the show’s core premise by being the broadcast partner of the esports tournament ‘Team Clutch’ competes for. The platform’s ‘Stream Karo, Earn Karo’ catch-phrase has also been integrated to advocate the live streaming and monetization opportunities that lie in esports and game streaming, giving rest to common apprehensions gaming athletes and creators face in taking it up as a professional career. Being India’s leading live game streaming and esports platform, LOCO plays an instrumental role in kick-starting the esports broadcast and gaming creator economy in India.
