According to their press release, Tier One drew inspiration from the inspiring ethos of My Hero Academia, where characters strive for greatness through the concept of “Plus Ultra.”
Tier One Entertainment’s CEO and Blacklist International’s Co-founder, Tryke Gutierrez, expresses the significance of the collaboration for his company and its fans.
“In the world of esports, we are also the heroes, but at times, we can be the villain in someone else’s story,” he said. “Now we can express that in an exciting collection that brings it all together for the fans and even our haters too.”
Blacklist fans can grab these exclusive items at the BLCKBOX Flagship Store in Tomas Morato, Quezon City, or through the BLCKBOX website and online platforms, including Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop.
