The fun, fast and fiscal needs of millennials are no joke, claims 1xBet
Reading Time: 3 minutes
Delivering entertaining, trendy and disruptive gaming opportunities is “crucial for a generation that is used to not taking everything too seriously”, stated the 1xBet team when discussing how bookmakers can attract and hold the interest of the misunderstood millennial market. Highlighting the importance of mobile apps, instant data and unique bets on Brexit, the team explores why betting’s new blood is the injection of fun the industry needs…
The younger millennial market is a key focus for casinos and bookmakers in the US, Asia, Africa and beyond, how is 1xBet targeting this segment of players responsibly?
We are carefully studying this segment of the audience and paying special attention to it. The company understands that the time of the millennials has emerged, which means that it is not only important for the future, but also the present. This is a generation that is used to acting and is not afraid to take responsibility, therefore it is vital to build an effective communication strategy with them. Being open, giving all relevant information for decision making, together with using social networks and other communication channels are the most effective ways to communicate with millennials.
Through all these channels, we can offer both potential and existing customers diversified content. And let’s also not forget that after millennials, when the so-called Generation Z are fully on their feet, they will be even more mobile in every sense.
On paper it often appears millennial players are swayed by trends and a quest for the ‘next big thing’, what can companies do to stay ahead of the curve whilst remaining true to their core player base?
There are two main routes that we use. The first is to keep abreast of all possible new products, to participate in various conferences, seminars and other events, while also exchanging experiences with colleagues and partners. The second is to set trends yourself by conducting deep market surveys and testing new products in different markets before launching them on a global scale. We combine these methods and intend to refine them further in the future.
Speaking specifically about the demands of millennials, we highlight a variety of ways to interest them. Firstly, the presentation of material in a fun, colourful, multimedia form is crucial for a generation that is used to not taking everything too seriously. Secondly, with Esports betting, which is becoming more diverse and gaining popularity. Thirdly, by providing unusual special bets on a variety of things that interest millennials – from talent shows and TV shows to the election of the US President and Brexit.
Where do you see the next big wins in terms of keeping fans loyal and how does your team balance creating engaging content with revenue?
1xBet offers a truly unique betting portfolio, which simply has no equal in the number of events. High odds also contribute to customer loyalty. Millennials specifically also seek the personalization of proposals, as well as customisable betting options.
At this stage it’s obvious that every self-respecting bookmaker should have a mobile application. We have done everything so that our app is on par with the web version of the 1xBet website. Therefore, our customers always have the opportunity to place bets and have access to the data which interests them. Live betting and online broadcasting of matches are both particularly popular from our experience.
Finally, it is important to always be in touch with customers – that’s why our support service works 24/7, and our employees carefully monitor all possible channels for submitting information about 1xBet. Together, this ensures a steady growth in the audience of brand fans – and, therefore, 1xBet profit.
Gaming is one of the earliest adopters of new technology – can the advances pioneered by gaming be translated to new avenues for players like we’ve seen with esports, live casinos, etc. and if so what does the next new gaming sector look like to you?
In 2019, it is impossible to compete if you do not use the most advanced technologies. This applies not only in gaming and betting, but in all other sectors as well. Technology can become antiquated quickly in almost any industry.
An exciting development is the unique interaction between the most popular sports and betting. For example, in American leagues, it’s possible during the broadcast to bet on how the attack of a basketball team will end. All this occurs while seeing the statistics of previous attacks from a particular zone appear on the screen. Such integrations offer unique opportunities for bookmakers and players.
Which sectors outside gaming do you admire in terms of their approach to the millennial market and how can the gaming industry adopt these ideas into its strategy?
Millennials really appreciate new technologies, which is why the IT sector is constantly evolving and offers them more and more new developments, services and products. Forward-thinking IT companies are constantly striving to surprise, because today millennials have access to an increasing number of different technological innovations. Of course, some gambling companies are following in these footsteps. Those of them that can constantly offer technological innovations for the convenience and comfort of users will achieve greater success among millennials.

Mr. Gamble Forum, a fast-growing online gambling community, has rolled out a major platform revamp that is already delivering record-breaking growth in traffic, visibility, and user engagement. Timed perfectly ahead of the industry’s busiest season, the update strengthens the forum’s position as a go-to destination for casino and sports betting discussions worldwide.
The refreshed platform combines a cleaner design, expanded content, and new marketing capabilities, all built around a single goal: creating a space where players can freely share real experiences while operators connect with highly motivated users.
“We’ve invested a lot of effort into improving both the user experience and the commercial potential of the forum,” said Paul Puolakka, CMO of Mr. Gamble. “This update reinforces our vision of an open, trusted community that benefits players and partners alike—and the growth we’re seeing confirms we’re on the right track.”
Strong Growth Momentum Following the Revamp
The impact of the update has been immediate. In Novembe 2025, compared to December 2024, Mr. Gamble Forum recorded a sharp rise across all key performance metrics. Daily clicks increased by 270%, daily impressions climbed by 471%, and monthly clicks grew by 380%. These numbers reflect not only improved visibility in search engines but also a growing appetite for a community where players can openly discuss casinos, bonuses, slots, and betting strategies.
Sports Betting Content Broadens the Forum’s Scope
One of the most significant additions is the expansion into sports betting content. The forum now features dedicated discussions around upcoming games, betting strategies, and odds, giving sports bettors a place to exchange insights in real time. Alongside these discussions, users can explore a steadily growing selection of sports betting bonuses, including both long-term promotions and limited-time offers from leading brands.
This addition allows Mr. Gamble Forum to serve a broader audience while keeping casino players and sports bettors under one unified community.
Localized Promotions for Key Regions
As part of the revamp, Mr. Gamble Forum has also refined how promotions are presented. Players from Australia and New Zealand now have their own dedicated sections where they can immediately discover the most relevant casino and betting offers available to them. This localized approach makes it easier for users to find deals that actually apply to their region, while increasing engagement and conversion potential for operators.
A Clear Step Toward Global Expansion
The forum’s international ambitions are already taking shape. A dedicated Swedish-language version of the forum has recently gone live, giving Swedish players a space to participate in discussions in their native language. Early engagement data shows positive signs, suggesting strong potential as localized promotions and content continue to expand.
Over the past year, the forum has seen its strongest growth in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and New Zealand, and Sweden is now emerging as another promising market.
New Opportunities for Casino and Betting Partners
Beyond user-facing improvements, the revamp introduces new commercial features designed to support partners. Updated call-to-action elements help guide users toward relevant offers, making it easier for casinos to attract players who are already in a decision-making mindset.
For a limited time, Mr. Gamble Forum is also offering partners the opportunity to test forum marketing free of charge, as long as they can provide geo- and IP-targeted dynamic banners. This allows operators to explore the forum’s potential, reach high-intent audiences, and gather performance insights without upfront risk.
A Community Built on Real Player Experiences
Despite the platform’s growth and new features, the core of Mr. Gamble Forum remains unchanged: community-driven discussion. Players continue to share honest reviews of casinos, compare bonuses, talk openly about slot games, and exchange betting strategies. This transparency has been a key factor behind the forum’s rising visibility and trust among users.
As more players join and more regions come online, these conversations are becoming richer, more diverse, and increasingly valuable for both users and operators.
What Comes Next for Mr. Gamble Forum
The December revamp marks the beginning of a new phase for the platform. Further international expansion is already on the roadmap, alongside improvements to mobile performance, contributor rewards, and partner analytics. Each development is designed to strengthen the ecosystem and keep the forum relevant as the online gambling landscape continues to evolve.
Conclusion
With its latest update, Mr. Gamble Forum has transformed from a growing community into a truly global platform. The combination of rapid traffic growth, expanded sports betting content, localized promotions, and innovative partner opportunities highlights a clear direction forward. Backed by strong momentum in the US, UK, Canada, New Zealand, and early success in Sweden, the forum is well positioned to become one of the most influential discussion hubs in the online gambling industry.
As Paul Puolakka summarizes, “When players feel heard and operators see real value, growth follows naturally. That’s exactly what we’re building with Mr. Gamble Forum.”

- Team Vitality is kicking off the new LEC season with renewed energy and a hunger to prove themselves on the international stage.
- With superstar mid laner Marek “Humanoid” Brázda joining the lineup, alongside the support of an experienced coaching staff, the club is confident in its ability to compete at the highest level in 2026.
- The squad’s goal is straightforward: become a top team in the LEC and qualify for Worlds in North America next year.
- Next year marks a new chapter in the club’s long-term strategy to develop and elevate European talent, creating an environment built to deliver results.
Team Vitality is proud to present its new LEC roster for 2026. Throughout the upcoming season, the club aims to build on its existing core and further develop the team’s talent, while welcoming a new mid laner and a strategic Head Coach to elevate performance.
BACK WITH NEW FIREPOWER
The stage is set, and Team Vitality returns to the LEC more determined than ever. At the heart of this ambitious new roster is Kaan “Naak Nako” Okan, the Turkish superstar top laner, who will anchor the team. With the roster built around his talent, communication, and leadership, Team Vitality aims to make a deep run and achieve its first EMEA title.
Roster composition
- Kaan “Naak Nako” Okan (Turkish) – 20 years old: The centrepiece of Team Vitality’s project, Naak Nako is an incredibly talented player known for his versatility and impact. A former high-level volleyball player, he began his professional League of Legends career in 2022 with Fenerbahce. Team Vitality then picked him up in December 2023, spent a year developing in the academy, and promoted him to the main roster, bringing both potential and dedication to the LEC squad.
- Linas “Lyncas” Nauncikas (Lithuanian) – 21 years old: The hardworking engine of Team Vitality, Lyncas brings his relentless drive and consistency to the refreshed roster. Having played for several teams in the ERL and EMEA Masters, he was recruited by Team Vitality in May 2024. Now entering his third year in the LEC, Lyncas combines experience, adaptability, and a deep understanding of the league to power the team’s 2026 ambitions.
- Marek “Humanoid” Brázda (Czech) – 25 years old: A veteran of the LEC scene and one of its most consistent mid laners over the past five years, Humanoid is repeatedly ranked among the league’s top 3 midlaners and has qualified for Worlds multiple times with rosters such as Fnatic and MAD Lions. Joining the Hive, Humanoid reunites with longtime teammate and fellow Czech Carzzy, bringing renewed motivation, experience, and leadership that the club hopes will translate into success and lead them to the Worlds stage.
- Matyáš “Carzzy” Orság (Czech) – 23 years old: Consistently recognised as one of Europe’s best ADCs, Carzzy enters his seventh LEC year with a wealth of experience and a proven track record, having previously lifted three LEC trophies with MAD Lions. He brings a great personality as well as undeniable skill to Team Vitality. This season, he looks to flourish alongside his new teammate Humanoid, building strong synergy and impact in the hopes of bringing the teams to new heights.
- Kadir “Fleshy” Kemiksiz (Turkish) – 24 years old: Having played for Vitality.Bee for seven months, Fleshy was promoted to the main roster last year ahead of the Summer Split. He quickly made his mark in the scene by bringing stability and reliable performances to the bot lane, leaving a strong impression on fans and teammates alike. Now entering his first full year in the LEC, Fleshy is ready to fully prove himself and make a lasting impact on Team Vitality’s road to Worlds.
Coaching staff
- Patrick “Pad” Suckow-Breum (Danish) – Head Coach: A competitor through and through, Pad brings a lifelong passion for sports, having previously competed at a high level in football. He has been a coach in League of Legends since 2017, taking his first steps into the LEC with MAD Lions in 2020. Joining Team Vitality in December 2023 alongside Head Coach Mac, Pad is now taking the next step in his career as the team’s Head Coach, ready to lead Team Vitality to new heights with his experience, discipline, and vision.
- Danusch “Arvindir” Fischer (German) – Strategic Coach: An ambitious coach, Arvindir began his career in professional League of Legends as an analyst for top LEC organisations, including SK Gaming and Splyce, before transitioning into coaching. He has worked across all the major ERL leagues, including a 3.5-year tenure at BIG, before moving on to KOI and Team BDS Academy, where he led the team to victory in the 2024 EMEA Masters Summer Split. Joining Team Vitality in 2025 as the Head Coach of the LFL roster, he has proven his worth in developing Vitality.Bee, and has now been promoted to Strategic Coach of the LEC team.
- Luka “Lukezy” Trumbić (Croatian) – Assistant Coach: Lukezy has been involved in competitive League of Legends since 2014, initially as a semi-pro player before transitioning to coaching in 2023. He has previously worked with UCAM and NNO, gaining valuable experience across several competitive environments. Joining Team Vitality in December 2024, Lukezy now enters his second LEC season as the team’s Assistant Coach, where he has a hands-on role in player development.
”The addition of Marek to the roster reflects our strategic ambitions for the upcoming LEC season. Over the past 18 months, we have focused on developing Lynacs and Naak, making 2026 a key performance year for the team. We are confident that we now have all the pieces in place to compete for the top positions in LEC. While this season will be decisive, our team thrives under pressure, positioning us well to meet the challenge.” explains Patrick “Pad” Suckow-Breum, Head Coach of the team.
A NEW ERA BEGINS
With a clear goal in mind of reaching the international stage, Team Vitality enters 2026 determined to make this its breakthrough season. The team’s mission is bold, yet simple: establish itself as a top contender in each LEC split and secure qualification to Worlds. The organisation is committed to elevating European talent and building a team capable of competing at the highest level.
“We are building on the momentum from 2025, with results continuing to improve. We’ve added experience and an X-factor in a key position, in the hope that this will serve as a catalyst to confirm the potential of the young players we backed last year. We are confident that they can demonstrate that European talent is capable of competing for the qualifying spots at the World Championships.” says Fabien “Neo” Devide, President and co-founder of Team Vitality.
