A very tiring month, but our biggest yet. We finished with 670 new members, running events across Halo, VALORANT, Call of Duty and League of Legends, with more players getting involved every day. My view is that when multiple games have thriving grassroots competitive communities, the wider scene benefits. Players discover other titles, smaller communities get a chance to gain traction, and participation grows across the board. Brands and publishers understandably want meaningful numbers when considering esports sponsorship in our region. But the landscape has changed. Streaming audiences, content creation and viewership aren’t what they once were across much of the grassroots scene. And let’s be honest, a Discord member count alone doesn’t tell you how active a community really is. Without the brands willing to support these communities, events are often funded out of an organiser’s pocket or through player entry fees. That’s why I see so much value in bringing multiple titles under one roof with trusted community leaders. You might run a COD tournament on a Tuesday and have a VALORANT player drop in to watch, then see the reverse happen at the next event. I met some of my closest friends across different games. Viewership grows from community. Give people a reason to turn up, compete and connect, and you create opportunities that extend beyond any single game so everyone wins. Time is the enemy, but I’ll keep enjoying the journey

Huge Shoutout to @EZmodeGG for the EB Games gift card, appreciate u guys hosting these amazing events and looking forward to future ones(Host more soon !!)

As tournaments start, our dashboard is triggered to create all the team channels with permissions to join at player level if set. You may have a discord bot that already does this, though it this specifically adds to our platform automations, and feeds in info on who’s possibly a bye when dealing with a ton of teams.

EZmode Presents | Top 5 Plays Congratulations to our winners, and a huge thank you to the VALORANT OCE community for helping shape the future of EZmode.

What a great weekend to get back to my Call of Duty roots, where it all started for me 15+ years ago. Seeing 20 teams come out of the woodwork and register is a credit to the ANZ COD community. Special thanks to @nicolevauxite for helping spread the word and going above and beyond. and to my day1s such as @Fighta71 @Crimzaah_ @Jahovuk9 @lmagineT1 @Deliriumm00 + so many others who know who they are. THANK YOU. The support everyone has shown means more than a big prize pool ever could. It’s the fuel that gives our team the energy to evolve into the next phase. League of Legends is next, we’re VERY fortunate to have @S7YLED, @SpaceDoggyOCE as leaders who really are passionate enough to see the vision. If you’d like to support EZmode, the ask is sign up, give us a crack and share our site where possible. A little trust in what we’re building as we work to move beyond the same old machine approach to esports in our region.

Found out today that the new COD doesn’t show death counts in Search and Destroy, including the esports SND mode. How is this even a thing?

Franchising and challenger circuits/leagues is killing esports. Bring back open circuits. Bring back the days where 5 players with no jerseys, and no salary had the chance to run it down mid for $50k

Grab your textbooks. It’s time for UNICLASH! 📚🔥 The Swiss Stage kicks off tonight at 7pm. Time to represent your uni! 👉ezmode.gg/tournaments/unicla…

Blown away by the signups over the past few weeks. Our member base has grown 79.2% in the past 60 days, and we’re on track to reach 2,000 players this month! It’s been a challenge year with minimal sleep keeping the train moving The community is there. As we grow, more gamers are coming together from separate Discord communities to a central hub for competitive play. With gaming bigger than ever, keeping that growth organic and community-led gives us the best chance of building something that lasts the long term for the whole of OCE grassroots. Everything @EZmodeGG gains, will be funneled back into the vision.

Our fearless draft in action across the fortress Melbourne lan, great feedback from some of the players to make some improvements though so far so good 😊
