For years, Razer has taken the feedback of our pro-gamers to develop products that set the trends in eSports and set an example. We live by our motto; For Gamers. By Gamers.

Tan was born in Singapore and resides in San Francisco. He graduated from the National University of Singapore Law School and was a lawyer before he created Razer with Robert Krakoff. Tan was recently elected to the board of the PC Gaming Alliance. In March 2012 he contributed $10,000 USD to the Wasteland 2 Kickstarter project, admitting it was to atone for pirating Wasteland when he was a child. (Wasteland designer and Interplay CEO Brian Fargo replied that Tan has more than made up for his piracy of the game.) Tan has been named one of "The 25 Most Creative People in Tech" by the Business Insider together with Jonathan Ive and Gabe Newell. He has also been ranked one of the top 40 most powerful people in gaming by Kotaku in their "The Kotaku Power 40" list. Robert Krakoff Robert “Razerguy” Krakoff co-founded Razer with Min-Liang Tan in 1998. What started as a company with two gamers in small California office has grown into a company of over 400 employees with offices in 10 cities worldwide. Krakoff graduated UCLA with a journalism degree in 1959 then spent the next 11 years as a copywriter with McCann Erickson Agency in Los Angeles. In 1971, Krakoff was Vice President of Marketing at Volume Shoe Corporation in Topeka. By 1975, Krakoff was in Omaha and the Senior Vice President of Marketing at Richman Gordman Department Stores. It was at Richman Gordman that Krakoff got his first taste of gaming, playing the early versions of Space Invaders, Galaga and Centipede. After leaving Richman Gordman in 1982, Krakoff worked as a retail technology consultant with companies such as AT&T, IMB and Activision before co-founding Razer.

  • Automatic Generation of Text for Match Recaps Using Esport Caster Commentaries
    AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF TEXT FOR MATCH RECAPS USING ESPORT CASTER COMMENTARIES Oluseyi Olarewaju1, Athanasios V. Kokkinakis1, Simon Demediuk2, Justus Roberstson1, Isabelle Nölle1, Sagarika Patra1, Daniel Slawson1, Alan P. Chitayat1, Alistair Coates1, Ben Kirman2, Anders Drachen2, Marian Ursu2, Florian Block2 and Jonathan Hook2 1Weavr, Arena Research Cluster (ARC), University of York, York, UK 2DC Labs, Arena Research Cluster (ARC), University of York, York, UK ABSTRACT Unlike traditional physical sports, Esport games are played using wholly digital platforms. As a consequence, there exists rich data (in-game, audio and video) about the events that take place in matches. These data offer viable linguistic resources for generating comprehensible text descriptions of matches, which could, be used as the basis of novel text-based spectator experiences. We present a study that investigates if users perceive text generated by the NLG system as an accurate recap of highlight moments. We also explore how the text generated supported viewer understanding of highlight moments in two scenarios: i) text as an alternative way to spectate a match, instead of viewing the main broadcast; and ii) text as an additional information resource to be consumed while viewing the main broadcast. Our study provided insights on the implications of the presentation strategies for use of text in recapping highlight moments to Dota 2 spectators. KEYWORDS Esport, Data-Driven Storytelling, Dota 2, Game Analytics, Broadcasting, social viewing, Linguistic Resources, Natural Language Generation. 1. INTRODUCTION Advances in Natural language generation (NLG) and data-to-text tools have found relative success outside esport (e.g. weather forecasting, robojournalism, traditional sport summaries and fantasy football).
