FRISCO, Texas, and SPARTANBURG, S.C. – August 11, 2022 – Complexity Gaming, a
GameSquare Esports company and one of North America’s longest-standing esports
organizations, today announced a partnership with Denny’s to amplify female voices and rising
creators in gaming and esports through a series of Twitch streams. The all-female campaign
aims to celebrate small gaming wins among creators and their communities.
To drive awareness, consideration and cultural relevance among younger, more diverse targets,
Denny’s has proactively tapped into the growing power of content creators to generate real
meaning behind its marketing programs. With a finger on the pulse of up-and-coming
influencers who represent today’s diverse America and maintain highly engaged communities,
the brand partnered with Complexity to celebrate underserved streamers within the gaming
community and spread joy by executing in-stream surprises and delights to reward fans with a
variety of prizes.
“This partnership with Denny’s uniquely embodies Complexity’s core values and commitment to
inclusivity,” said Justin Kenna, CEO, GameSquare Esports. “We want to continue to create
opportunities to showcase Complexity’s talented roster of women and creators of color, and this
campaign will both recognize these creators and their viewers for their unwavering support.”
Through sponsored livestreams on Twitch, Complexity and Denny’s will highlight the
organization’s diverse pool of creators – half of which is female – and recognize their
contributions to making gaming an inclusive and welcoming space. Taking place August
through September, the four livestreams will feature Complexity’s female talent, including
Beccatilts, Emily Wang, Vicky Palami, and Ninjayla. All streams will include special “pancake
drops” that reward viewers with a range of prizes on behalf of Denny’s such as free delivery,
dollars off meals, merch and more.
“At Denny’s our ethos is centered around a deep passion to feed people’s bodies, minds and
souls while creating meaningful moments and spaces where everyone feels welcome,” said
John Dillon, Chief Brand Officer, Denny’s. “Having fun with food is at the core of our brand
personality and by collaborating with Complexity’s cast of inspiring female creators on Twitch,
we’re embracing our mission while working together to improve accessibility and foster an
inclusive online community.”
The series additionally marks the debut of Complexity’s two newest content creators: Beccatilts
and Emily Wang. Predominantly streaming Teamfight Tactics, both creators have built inclusive
communities around the strategy games and other variety content. The creators continue to
stand out as rising stars within the genre and represent Complexity’s commitment to signing
young, up-and-coming talent.
The Denny’s campaign was facilitated by media agency Spark Foundry.
