Evil Geniuses is announcing a partnership with Theta Labs, a leading decentralized cloud infrastructure company. This partnership introduces a new way for EG fans to interact with the org's lovable mascot known as Meesh.
Meesh becomes an AI-powered chat bot that is accessible through the Evil Geniuses' Discord server and the official website. The mascot is available for all kinds of conversations, such as esports-level trash talk, EG trivia, and more.
Evil Geniuses x Theta Labs is the next step for EG as it looks to prioritize the use of AI in its operations. Powered completely by Theta EdgeCloud, Meesh will be available for users 24/7, with answers to questions, schedule information, and even highlights.
“EG has been a pioneer in utilizing AI to redefine the esports industry. After building multiple AI tools to help our teams scout talent and win championships, it made sense to see how AI can better enable us to engage with our fans.
"Our partnership with Theta Labs will give our fans the chance to interact with our new mascot on a level we hadn’t imagined. We’ve been thrilled with the reception of Meesh by our fans; everyone has fallen in love with our cute critter and we can’t wait to bring more Meesh to our community beginning with the VALORANT Champions Tour Stage 1, along with other exciting events we have in store for later this year.”
The AI-chatbot version of Meesh launches during Stage 1 of the 2025 VALORANT Champions Tour. It becomes available right as Evil Geniuses steps back into the VCT Americas spotlight, looking to punch their ticket to Masters Toronto and eventually Champions Paris.
