Gaming Icons (Created in 2002, also known by ICON, is a professional gaming organization. They are currently run by Brandon 'fusion' Conner and Jon 'skootz' Lunceford. They help get teams to events and help them succeed in many different ways. The team motto is "Strive for Excellence" and ICON tries to help uphold that every day by dropping sponsorship to players who can't keep their professional status up, or who fail to uphold the high reputation of sportsmanship that the team has come to be recognized for. They currently sponsor teams in games such as Gears of War, Call of Duty, and Team Fortress 2.
