In the world of branding, changing a logo and brand identity can be a risky move, especially when the brand has a loyal and passionate fanbase. This was the challenge faced by MBA when working with Rogue, an esports team with a strong history and identity that was beloved by both fans and players in the esports community.
Despite the attachment that fans had to the current Rogue brand and logo, it became clear that the existing design was no longer fully aligned with the company’s goals and vision. MBA’s task was to create a refreshed logo variation that would not only represent the brand effectively but also resonate with its devoted followers.
