Evil Geniuses is one of the oldest and most storied esports organizations in North America. Founded in 1999 as a Quake clan, EG built a legacy across Dota 2, StarCraft, Counter-Strike, Call of Duty, and Valorant, most famously winning Dota 2's The International 2015 for a then-record payout and Valorant Champions 2023. Now headquartered in Seattle and owned by Chicago investment firm PEAK6, the company runs competitive teams, a content-creator roster, youth and community programs, and a direct-to-consumer merchandise line.
