Guild Esports, a global esports team organisation, took sixth place overall with team Guild X in the inaugural VALORANT Game Changers Championship, held in Berlin (15-20 November).

Following a year of intense regional competition, the world’s most elite Game Changers squads went head-to-head in person, for the first time ever, to crown a global champion in Germany. Bringing together the best teams from North America, Brazil, EMEA, APAC, LATAM and East Asia, G2 Esports won the Grand Final to lift the coveted championship trophy.

Supporting women in gaming is a key part of Guild’s strategy within the sporting community, aligning with the aims of Game Changers to create new opportunities and exposure for women and other marginalised genders within VALORANT esports.

The tournament in Berlin, with over 150,000 viewers* tuning in, demonstrates how women in gaming and teams such as Guild X are not just changing the game but also breaking records. According to Esports Charts, Game Changers has become the most-watched tournament for women’s esports.

On Sunday, Guild also hosted a watch party at the Sky Guild Gaming Centre in Shoreditch with talent Elz the Witch, Iain Chambers plus other influencers such as Megsoundslikeegg and Geo Collins in attendance. Even though Guild X was not in the Grand Final, Guild, along with its supporting partners Sky and Subway, wanted to offer a safe space for VALORANT fans to watch the finale, especially women and marginalised gender fans.

Jasmine Skee, Chief Marketing Officer at Guild Esports, said: “Our vision at Guild is to lead the way in supporting the future of women in gaming, and we are committed to equal opportunities for our Guild X players. The Game Changers Championship in Berlin was a hugely successful event and we are extremely proud as an organisation to have been a part of it. Congratulations to all at G2 Esports on their victory in such a milestone event for the esports industry. With the announcement of the new Game Changers format, we’re excited to watch our Guild X team, and the wider women esports industry, grow.”

Guild X has been confirmed this week as automatic top-tier qualifiers for the VALORANT Game Changers EMEA 2023 competition, with relegation rules now being in place as part of the new format changes announced. The Game Changers tournament will continue to break down stereotypes, elevate women and allow them to further their careers in a dedicated safe space, and provide a platform for professional growth both in and outside of the game – all actions that are completely aligned with Guild’s strategy moving into 2023 and beyond.

Blask, the market intelligence ecosystem for iGaming, has crossed the 100-country threshold with the addition of new Asian, Africa and European markets to its platform.

Blask now provides AI-driven, real-time analytics on more than half of the world’s nations, with an in-depth overview of the operator landscape provided in 107 countries, and game analytics in 17.

The latest markets added include Turkey, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Ukraine, Qatar, Kuwait, Moldova, Tunisia, Zimbabwe, Jordan, Madagascar, Chad, Somalia, Niger, South Sudan and Mauritania.

Max Tesla, CEO and co-founder of Blask, said: “When we launched Blask last year, we made a commitment to bring in-depth, real-time iGaming market intelligence to the whole world. We’re now more than half-way towards completing this mission. Every new market we add brings more clarity to an industry that has operated in the dark for far too long.”

Blask shines a light on the performance of brands and entire markets where data-led intelligence has previously been lacking.

This latest update shows that as the United Arab Emirates prepares to roll out a new regulatory framework for online gaming, more than 155 brands are already active in the country. The Blask Index, a measure of engagement and interest across all brands in the UAE, is up 36.14% year-on-year.

Meanwhile, the once thriving  Ukraine iGaming market has seen a 49.11% YoY decline, with just 86 now active.
