Amazon’s live streaming video channel Twitch announced yesterday that it is forming an e-sports league with Super Evil Megacorp, the startup behind battle game “Vainglory.” The three-year initiative will be the first of its kind for Twitch involving a mobile game. Nick Allen, director of e-sports operations at Twitch, said the tournaments could be held at public venues for in-person viewing as well as online broadcasts. “Twitch said viewers watched 150 million minutes of people playing ‘Vainglory’ last year, which debuted on iOS in late 2014 and Android last July,” reports The Wall Street Journal.
