Gioco (Italien: game) is the mascot of Europe Masters and is exclusively designed by the Dutch sculptor Jolanda Kleiss.
The sculpture represents both a cheering and a victorious pawn. Though the model is asymmetric, it is properly balanced. The same holds true for the skills needed of the players in our competition. Each game has its own gaming mechanism and players have to handle some time constraints. Mastering all these elements is what ultimately makes a player the European Champion.
