HEROIC announces Razed betting partnership

European esports organisation HEROIC has secured a new partnership with esports and sports betting company Razed for its CS2 division.

According to the announcement, Razed has become an official sponsor of HEROIC’s main Counter-Strike 2 roster and its academy team. As a result, Razed’s branding will feature prominently on HEROIC’s CS2 jerseys and across social platforms.

Currently ranked 14th in the September VRS rankings, HEROIC has been a prominent name across many tier one CS2 events in 2025. This includes participating at the Esports World Cup, the BLAST Austin Major and IEM Dallas, Katowice and Cologne. The Nordic organisation’s next offline event is FISSURE Playground 2 in Belgrade, Serbia. 

Announced earlier this year, HEROIC’s academy roster has already caught the attention of some teams, with David ‘fnl’ Mușuroiu currently trialling for Nexus.

Outside of the branding opportunities, HEROIC and Razed will also create exclusive content, co-branded campaigns and activations tailored to the Counter-Strike 2 community. Financial details surrounding the partnership have not been revealed; however, HEROIC has described the partnership as a ‘landmark sponsorship agreement’.

Speaking about the partnership, Krystian Jaroszynski, Chief Commercial Officer of HEROIC, commented: “Razed stood out to us as a great partner in an industry of many operators. 

“At their core, their values align with ours — entertainment, responsibility, and a true love for esports. Our partnership will allow us to create more fun content and some amazing experiences for our fans. We couldn’t be happier to welcome Razed as a partner.”

The esports and sports betting company joins the likes of CDKeys and ZOWIE as partners of HEROIC. 

Razed is among a whole host of betting companies that have teamed up with esports organisations over the years, a trend that is incredibly prominent within the CS2 and Dota 2 landscape. The likes of Team Vitality (STAKE), FaZe Clan (Rollbit) and NAVI (GG.BET) all have secured major partnerships within the betting sector.
