Most trophies are made for a single night. A perpetual trophy is made for a decade. It returns season after season, carries the names of every champion, and becomes the physical memory of a league. Designing one is a different discipline entirely.
The short answer: a perpetual esports trophy needs a timeless design that will not date, engineered space for years of champion names, and construction robust enough to be handled and transported repeatedly. At Fabit we design and build perpetual trophies in-house in Antwerp, so the piece stays iconic and functional across seasons.
Design for a decade, not a night
A perpetual trophy cannot chase trends. If it looks like this year’s aesthetic, it will look dated in three seasons. The design has to be timeless, confident and rooted in your league’s core identity rather than a passing style.
We aim for the feeling of a classic sporting trophy reinterpreted for esports: something that will look right in year one and year ten.

Plan the champion record from day one
The defining feature of a perpetual trophy is that it grows. Every champion adds a name. That has to be designed in from the start, not improvised later.
- Engraving bands or rings sized for many seasons of names
- Modular plates that can be added without altering the form
- A base engineered to expand or accept new elements over time
- Consistent typography so every entry looks intentional
Get this right and the trophy tells the story of your league at a glance.
Build it to be handled again and again
A perpetual piece is lifted, transported, displayed and lifted again for years. Durability is not a nice-to-have, it is the brief. We engineer the internal structure for repeated real-world use.
Because everything is built in-house, we control material quality and construction, so the trophy survives the tour every single season.
Consider a keep-and-replica model
Many leagues keep the master perpetual trophy and give champions a replica to take home. This protects the original while still rewarding the winners.
We can design and produce both from the same source, so the replica is a faithful, premium miniature of the master piece. Our XL esports trophies show how we handle a monumental master, and the replica programme complements it perfectly.
Make it the centrepiece it deserves to be
A perpetual trophy earns presence. Scale, weight and material should signal that this is the most important object in the league. Under stage lights it needs to command attention as the ultimate prize.
We balance that presence against practicality, so a monumental piece still lifts and ships safely.
Why leagues trust our craft
Our esports and gaming experience spans Riot Games, BLAST Premier, ESL Pro League, the Call of Duty League, MLBB and PokerGo. We understand the full competitive lifecycle, which is exactly what a perpetual trophy demands.
Everything is designed and built in-house in Antwerp, giving us the control to plan a piece for the long term.
One partner across seasons
Because we hold the original design and build files, adding each season’s engraving or plate is straightforward and consistent. You get one reliable partner for the life of the trophy, not a new vendor every year.
