Rebels Gaming and KRU Esports truly did their best to show the world their faces in the competitive gaming sector. Now both teams have their personal strength and weaknesses. That is why KRU Esports might speak bout the reward they earned in just two years. Rebels Gaming can also proudly showcase their expertise in both Valorant and League of Legends. However, what strikes viewers the most is how these two companies truly represent their beautiful regional culture and make a significant contribution to the competitive gaming scene.

Now that the players get the mentorship of owners like Lionel Messi, Sergio Aguero, and David de Gea, it is a huge chance for them to learn and evolve as great players like them. Therefore, not much to reveal about who is better between these two organizations. However, it is possible to truly say that both companies will reach sky-rocketed success if they stick to the current pace of performance. What do you think?
