ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Aug. 29, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics USA is joining forces with FaZe Clan, the globally recognized gaming team, to host a gaming competition featuring LG's new premium high-resolution gaming monitor, the 34-inch 21:9 UltraWide curved display.

To highlight the smooth gameplay and speed of its 21:9 UltraWide gaming monitor, LG has teamed with gaming pros FaZe Clan for a five-versus-five competition, playing the new, fast-paced "LawBreakers" game. The winter-take-all "Seriously Professional" competition will officially kick off on Sept. 12 and seeks to find out whose gaming style is the best as FaZe Clan members face-off to bring their skills to an entirely new gravity-defying game. In preparation for the competition FaZe Clan members will train gamers on LG's new high-performance gaming monitor (model 34UC89G) and help them get the edge by leveraging the wide landscape of 21:9 monitors and seamless gameplay thanks to fast refresh rates and advanced motion processing.

"Teaming with FaZe Clan to train the next generation of gamers on our new high-performance gaming monitor is another step towards giving consumers the best experience possible and continuing to help them hone their craft."

The competition will culminate with a final showdown between Team Rawkus led by FaZe Rawkus and Team Temperrr led by FaZe Temperrr, where they will compete for an ultimate gaming package Grand Prize.

The high-performance LG 34UC89G features a 21:9 aspect ratio that significantly expands overall screen real estate, along with Quad HD resolution (3440 x 1440 pixels) for intense clarity and LG's proprietary picture enhancing IPS display technology for accurate color reproduction with limited screen tear, even at wide viewing angles.
