Team Empire Logo PNG
Power and pressure are visible in the Team Empire logo. A close-knit team, like one strong player, rushes to victory. The emblem reflects an ardent desire to compete and a willingness to overcome any challenge.
Meaning and History
The development of cybernetics and computer games helped shape a team-oriented direction in eSports. This led to the formation of club teams, whose members gathered and united into “clans” around modern club equipment because reliable computers were unavailable.
July 25, 2001, is a significant date in the history of sports development on the internet. In Russia, a decree was signed that day recognizing esports as an official form of competition. Russia was the first in the world to do it. Although it added no privileges for organizers or players when it took effect, it had a huge impact on the discipline’s accelerated development.
On this “wave,” an annual tournament, the “ASUS Open,” the largest in the CIS, began to be held. As a result, experienced players gained stronger motivation to keep going, and young players got a chance to prove themselves. The participants in these tournaments formed the backbone of the professional Russian team Team Empire, which first emerged in 2004.
At the end of 2016, the organization announced a completely new roster, comprising both newcomers and old-school players. During this period, until 2017, the organization’s founders underwent fundamental changes. The KSK “Spartak” constituent council also included members of the constituent council. As of April 19, 2017, the team was fully staffed in CS.
By then, the main Team Empire logo had already been fully approved and could be seen in all in-game championships where the team participated, on its portal, and on social networks.
The emblem features a shield in the background, with a rider on a horse depicted in front of it, frozen mid-jump over a surmountable barrier, and a ribbon encircling the shield bearing the first word of the team name, “Team”. The rider wears a Roman legionary costume, holding a round shield and a short Roman sword in a combat stance, poised to strike a side blow. The high-quality rendering of the dynamics gives the composition visual energy, showing both figures’ tension and readiness to act. The purposeful movement of the front part of the horse’s body, with the head bent over to increase the range and power of the jump, is frozen at the most critical moment at high speed, transferring the mane’s direction of movement to the rear of the body. The rider’s body is tense, coiled like a spring to enhance the impact, almost merging with the horse’s body to reduce air resistance. The evolving cloak also supports the composition’s visual impact, conveying the cyberteam’s spirit and goals, their self-expression, and a readiness not only to reflect but also to launch a victorious attack.
Font and Colors
The logo uses a striking combination of bright red and a soft shade of light brown, with white and black to enhance contrast. The latter accentuates each color, drawing attention to the elements highlighted in red. The shield’s edge is divided into strict red and black halves. The shield’s interior is filled with black. The rider, his armor, weapons, and horse are light brown, while the plume, fluttering cloak, the horse’s reins, and its mane are red. Shape outlines and shadows are highlighted in black.
The name is written in white capital letters. The first word of the title is shown on the red ribbon. The second word appears below the ribbon on a black background, in letters larger than the font used for the first word. The composition fonts, ribbon, and substrate are arched, with the ends of the bend directed downward. The lower conical part of the shield protrudes under them.
High-quality workmanship ensures full compliance with modern digital technology requirements, creating the necessary impact on the viewer, high perceptual clarity, and logo memorability.
