In a time when esports is dominated by polished leagues and corporate-backed circuits, Battle of the Orgs (BOTO) is proving that the heart of competitive gaming still beats strongest in grassroots communities. Founded by Sliick, with strategic co-leadership from Prolific Gaming, BOTO has rapidly evolved from a bold idea into a thriving ecosystem, one that’s rewriting the rule
A Movement Born from the Ground Up
Launched just months ago, BOTO has already amassed over 700 active Discord members, hosted weekly tournaments with 16–20 teams, and secured partnerships with brands like League Trolli, Tru Gamer, TVO, and No Man’s Land. But the numbers only tell part of the story.
At its core, BOTO is about legacy, not just wins. It’s about creating a space where orgs can grow, contributors are recognized, and players feel like they’re part of something bigger than a bracket.
“We’re not just running events, we’re building a launchpad,” says Sliick, BOTO’s founder. “This is about giving orgs a real platform, contributors a voice, and players a reason to come back week after week. And I want to be clear—Prolific Gaming has been instrumental in shaping what BOTO is today. From format design to community culture, they’ve helped build this alongside me.”
Weekly Tournaments: The Pulse of the Platform
Every week, BOTO delivers high-energy brackets that showcase raw talent and strategic depth. These aren’t cookie-cutter competitions, they’re curated experiences designed to elevate the scene and spotlight the community.

Contributor shoutouts and spotlight roles,
Dynamic formats that keep players engaged and fans invested,
Recent champions like Cafe Rose have demonstrated the kind of synergy and clutch gameplay that defines BOTO’s competitive edge. Their win wasn’t just a victory, it was a performance that lit up the community.
“Watching teams like Cafe Rose go head-to-head with that level of intensity reminds me why we built this,”adds Sliick. “It’s not just about who wins, it’s about how they play, how they grow, and how they represent their org.”
Rivals Run: A New Frontier for Marvel Rivals Scrimming
BOTO is also pushing boundaries with its newest feature: Rivals Run, an exclusive scrimming and reward system built around Marvel Rivals. Designed for orgs and players who want to grind with purpose, Rivals Run offers structured progression, recognition, and real incentives.

Whether you’re a Marvel Rivals main or just looking to sharpen your squad’s synergy, Rivals Run is the proving ground you’ve been waiting for.
“Rivals Run is our way of giving Marvel Rivals players a structured path to improvement and recognition,”says Sliick. “It’s not just scrims, it’s a system that rewards consistency, effort, and growth.”
What’s Next?
With expansion plans underway and Rivals Run gaining traction, BOTO is gearing up for its next chapter. The team is actively seeking passionate partners, contributors, and orgs who want to be part of a legacy-building movement.
“We’re expanding fast, and we’re always looking for people who believe in grassroots power, competitive culture, and building something that lasts,” says Sliick. “BOTO is just getting started, and we’re building it together.”
