Wondering why vainshame.com is pretty outdated?
Two years ago, I was hired by Super Evil Mega Corp as the Art Lead for Editorial / Marketing & Esports. I have recently been promoted to the Senior Creative Manager, overseeing the editorial and esports brand development and execution. Its been a wild ride, one that has had me behind the design and execution of Vainglory esports since Season 0, the initial development of ingame news and social media assets for over a year, and flying all around the world, only to sit in the backrooms of theaters and auditoriums, overseeing the live production of all our Championship events.
It’s been an amazing experience, that I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to enjoy if it weren’t for this site, and your support. Thank you for being a part of my life, past/present & future.

Vainshame.com started as a fan-run website for gamers addicted to the multiplayer online battle arena moba game Vainglory for mobile devices by Super Evil MegaCorp. My hope with VainShame.com was to create a site that brought all things VainGlory together into a single place. From community twitch streams, podcasts and blogs, to official and unofficial news and tourneys. The goal has always been about community first.
Being involved with the game since the NA launch (November 2014), I have entrenched myself within this community. Over the last six months, this site as moved away from strictly news, focusing more on providing tools and resources for the community. My newest project, the Vainshame Community Overlay Project, is an effort to provide players easy to access tools and assets they can immediately use to stream Vainglory on online services such as twitch.tv. The goal is to help encourage streamers to play the game and have a professional look while doing so. Twitch offers a terrific opportunity for prospective gamers to see the game, learn how to play and interact with the community. My hope is that this contribution will help to grow the game and give it the exposure it deserves.
Other projects I have been involved with:
Currently partnered with the VGL, providing creative direction for branding, overlays and communications.
I have produced custom twitch overlays for the following Vainglory streamers:
• theFooJee
• Skipper587
• AutoKorrect
• Vainglory Championship Series
• VaingloryLeague
• VertigoTv
• FrostGlaive
• Lady Wabeesh (Celebration Overlay)
• Stormguard Soldier
Creative and Cash Sponsor for the first ever Vainglory Championship Series

I am always looking to help out and get involved. Have a project I might be a good fit in? Let me know!
