Red Bull and Vodafone Giants further strengthen a relationship that will allow the best fighting player in Spain to reach its final form. Red Bull continues to bet on competitive electronic sports at the highest level and, above all, on national talent. The brand is pleased to announce the signing of Shanks, the first esports fighting athlete in the entire history of Red Bull Spain.
This incorporation arises from the close relationship that Red Bull and Vodafone Giants currently maintain, with years of experience behind them, and that will allow Shanks to have the greatest possible support in their training, in addition to elevating the Spanish esports scene to continue its unstoppable growth to continue among the best on the planet.
With this signing it becomes clear, once again, Red Bull's support to the world of esports, and more specifically to the national fighting scene that gave us such good joys last season, with the Red Bull Dragon Ball FighterZ SAGA Madrid as the greatest exponent in our country.
Shanks was ranked among the top 16 fighters on the planet on the Red Bull Dragon Ball FighterZ World Tour circuit. With a very eclectic and varied combat style, his wonderful combos have marked the career of this athlete, full of perseverance and effort and always with that characteristic smile. “Red Bull is a brand that has been supporting esports and, specifically, fighting in recent years in a visible way. That starting today also through one of the most important Vodafone Giants players is fantastic news. Shanks is the flagship of fighting video games in Spain, so through this collaboration we will work to promote the values of fighting and Red Bull, with which we fully identify«, Says José Ramón Díaz, CEO Giants.
But the surprises don't stop there. Vodafone Giants joins as a collaborator in the new and expected edition of Red Bull Solo Q, the event that pits 1 vs 1 against the best League of Legends players. The support of Vodafone Giants guarantees that the tournament will not only have the experience of the current LVP champion in its spring split, but also the most successful team in the entire history of Spanish competition.
