Team Dignitas have announced that they are completely rebranding their organization, with a brand new logo and a name change.
Starting on Wednesday, October 31, the organization have dropped the ‘Team’ portion of their name, and will be simply referred to as Dignitas going forward.
The rebranding also means fans will have to say farewell to the iconic Dignitas alien logo, which has represented the company for many years.
Replacing the alien is an owl, specifically the “Owl of Minerva”, taken from Greek and Roman mythology to tie into the organization’s name.
The team will also be using #SeizeTheNight as their official Twitter hashtag, a clear reference to the new owl that now takes roost on their emblem.
Fans of the team will be glad to hear that black and yellow will remain as Dignitas’ primary colors, with silver joining the pair as one of the major colors seen on the organization’s brand new jersey.
