'''Evil Geniuses''' ('''EG''') is a professional eSports organization that includes both divisions for traditional eSports games and a powerhouse fighting game division founded in 2010 and currently includes multiple Evolution and major tournament winners. Currently, they also brand themselves as a "new media agency specializing in contracting professional gamers, creating online and offline video game broadcasts, and developing engaging marketing initiatives aimed at attracting and influencing gamers worldwide." On December 12th, 2016, Twitch spun-off Evil Geniuses and [[Alliance]] into player-owned organizations. Top professional ''Dota 2'' player Peter "ppd" Dager was named CEO of Evil Geniuses. <ref>http://www.espn.com/esports/story/_/id/18262358/2016-evil-geniuses-alliance-leave-parent-company-goodgame</ref>
