“Blame it on the lockout. Blame it on my not picking up a baseball until January… It was time.”

Game Day, a local media and marketing agency, announced that it will launch Cincinnati Fear to create a city-based competitive esports program.
It will engage the area’s gaming community by leveraging brands for sponsorship opportunities and by presenting events, leagues and community gatherings to support the gaming community.
Last year, Game Day named Tim David as Director of esports, and he will serve as the General Manager of the Cincinnati Fear. Previously, David managed the esports program at Mount St. Joseph University.
“Cincinnati Fear will convene the esports ecosystem in Cincinnati and compete to win and engage athletes and fans of competitive gaming,” said Jackie Reau, CEO of Game Day. “We envision Cincinnati Fear growing into another professional sports organization representing our great city in the esports community.”
Initially, Cincinnati Fear will recruit competitive gamers to compete on behalf of the team in Rocket League tournaments. Additionally, Cincinnati Fear and its partner brands will support collegiate and high school players in tournaments and live events with titles such as Call of Duty, League of Legends, Rocket League and Super Smash Bros., among others.
Cincinnati Fear will offer an opportunity for brands and organizations to connect to the esports audience here locally and globally through partnerships and activations. Additionally, Game Day will offer “Esports for Executives” to share industry information and tips on how to engage with the competitive gaming community.
Additionally, Cincinnati Fear will launch a philanthropy program to assist non-profits in harnessing the power of the esports community to raise donations through live charity streams and live charity events.
