Exclusive: Interview With Global Esports for Doge Cup

Global Esports just announced a tournament around the cryptocurrency – Dogecoin. DogeCoin is a meme-based cryptocurrency that has been promoted by multiple prominent personalities, including Elon Musk and Snoop Dogg. The esports organization shared its thoughts on cryptocurrency, esports, and its plans for Doge Cup in an exclusive interview with AFK Gaming. All proceeds from this event will go directly in funding Global Esports’ upcoming community tryouts & its prize pool.

In line with the theme of the tournament, we chose Doge to be the one asking the questions.

Q. Why watch?

Our goal with the event is to bring some fun back to the high tension competitive stresses of esports tournaments. There’s been so many of them. So this is a fun break of sorts. Why fun? Because that’s the very reason why a lot of us got into gaming!

So everything here is meant for fun, but you still win such SWAG and much DOGE!  

In fact, 10% of the Prize Pool goes to the highest melee/knife/pan kills. 

There are prizes for the Hall of Shame which will feature the most epic fails during the tournament.  Another thing unique about this event is that all proceeds in terms of superchats or otherwise from these events – will be used for funding our upcoming community tryouts so that it is not just an exposure opportunity, but an opportunity that allows you to earn some monies as well.

Q: Why Doge? Much Stonks? 

Esports and cryptocurrencies are the fastest growing ecosystems of this generation, so combining both to create something fun and innovative seemed interesting to us. 

With DOGE Cup, we aim at cross-pollinating the two communities

Crypto is the currency of the future that exists today, but not many people at least here in India know about it. So with more than 1.5 billion curious people on this part of the planet – why not spread the word of the good DOGE.
 

The prize pool for DOGE Cup is 50,000 Doge Coins valued at INR 3,67,660 or $5,000 USD at peak value (Currently INR 1,97,714 or $2,700 USD). By the time the tournament is over, you never know its value could have gone way ahead.

Q. Such fast? 

We’ve been wanting to do this for a while, but we just couldn’t get the slots and permissions to schedule the games. And then we saw a small window before the next set of events so we had to overclock ourselves into action. 

---

Q. Crypto go brrr?

Crypto is the currency of the future, we don’t see it going bust in India, to be honest. But we do believe in Doge coin to the moon hype. Whether it is legal or not is for the administration to decide, can it go to the moon or not – is for the community to decide. We are just playing our role – literally. 

---

Q: What I’m play?

Valoren. Free Fier.

Since it’s the inaugural event, we wanted to be fair to both the PC gaming and the mobile gaming community. So we picked 1 title each. We really want to add more titles, even if it were for community favorite non-esports titles. Let’s see how this goes

---

Q. We liek, more when?

Our bar for success with this is people having fun. If that happens – we definitely will.
