Before co-founding Vatic, Lynn McKee and Matt Giles spent years building in mobile gaming. What started with a Clash of Clans community grew into leading numerous competitive esports teams, gaining firsthand experience in roster building, competition, and fostering community that helped shape Vatic’s long-term vision.

In November 2024, that vision evolved into Vatic. More than a rebrand, it marked a commitment to building something with greater purpose: a competition-first mobile esports organization where players, creators, and community could grow on the path to excellence.

In 2025, Vatic took its first real steps as an organization. With our focus on Clash of Clans, we signed a World Championship roster, recruited talented creators, and held our first ever bootcamps. It was a year of learning, experimentation, and momentum. Every new organization has its “firsts” and this was ours: first events, first hires, first systems, first setbacks, and the early foundations of the culture and standards that continue to shape Vatic today.

2026 has been a defining year for Vatic. The organization expanded into Brawl Stars, Clash Royale, and PUBG Mobile, welcomed new creators, secured its first partnership, and continued building the infrastructure needed to support long-term growth. What began as a grassroots passion project has evolved into a competition-first mobile esports organization with growing reach, stronger operations, and a clear path forward.

April 2026 marked a major competitive milestone for Vatic with our first championship victory, as our Brawl Stars team claimed the North America Monthly Final title. More than a trophy, it was validation of the standards, preparation, and ambition behind everything we’ve been building. It was an important milestone, but only one step toward much bigger goals.
