Score Media and Gaming Inc. has announced that its YouTube channel “theScore esports” has reached one million subscriber milestone.

Through our in-house team of esports industry experts and content creators, theScore esports is the perfect partner for those looking to engage with a large and highly-coveted audience of competitive gaming fans,” Aubrey Levy added.
