December 16, 2020 (Center Valley, PA) - DeSales University and Mobalytics, an analytics-based gaming companion, have formed a new partnership dedicated to growing and improving the DeSales Esports program.

Mobalytics, the winner of Techcrunch 2016, has since become a leader in helping professional teams with roster building and scouting reports by using their cutting edge tools.

DeSales, which established its Esports program in Spring 2019, looks to bolster their ability to scout new talent and develop current team members with the help of Mobalytics.

"We're incredibly excited to become more involved in the League of Legends collegiate scene. It's a new field that deserves as much attention as traditional sports. There are a lot of similarities with the professional scene that we are hoping to apply but we understand that there are certain nuances that are unique to this level of play. Our main goals are to help DeSales discover promising new recruits and empower their current players to optimize their performances," said Amine Issa, Warchief of Science, and co-founder of Mobalytics.

"The level of intricacy in Mobalytics offers a wonderful wealth of tactical insight that helps both the individual player and coaching staff to harness our strengths and correct any weaknesses. I look forward to integrating the full extent of Mobalytics' platform into our current program and recruiting efforts," said Varsity Esports Program Director and Assistant Professor in Computer Science Karen Ruggles.

With the help of DeSales, Mobalytics aims to continue developing and optimizing their tools for the ever-growing population of aspiring Esport athletes.

In addition, the partnership will also yield content that revolves around the DeSales roster including stats and other insights on their players and the specific LoL champions they play.
