Esports Mogul Limited (ASX: ESH) (MogulortheCompany), the world’s most advanced
pure-play online esports tournament platform the world’s most advanced pure-play
online esports tournament platform is pleased to advise they have released the next
generation of esports ladder functionality.
Enhanced esports and gaming ladder functionality has been a highly requested
platform feature which brings an additional form of competition to competitive
gaming on the Mogul platform. Mogul Ladders are a progression system of competitive
play which allows teams and individuals to be ranked on their results against
opponents and actively challenge others to create mini-leagues for game titles with
high engagement.
Ladder systems are currently rare within competitive esports environments. Mogul has
developed unique functions for their Ladders which include the ‘Instant Challenge’
and ‘PUG-style’ features all encompassed in a stunning user interface and
experience.
Instant Challengesenables players to strike fast and engage in challenges for
matches straight away with their opponents. Unlike typical ladders and tournaments,
Instant Challenges throw away the need for future scheduling, instead letting
competitors challenge each other for points, positions, and glory, immediately. This
presents a market-differentiating feature to keep players engage frequently across
sustained periods of time, maximising time spent on site and the amount of gameplay
and enjoyment experienced by Mogul users.
PUG-Style(Pick-Up Groups) pairs up solo playing individuals into a team to compete
in tournaments, based on skill and experience level. This is a key new feature to
Mogul which allows the platform to match solo gamers looking to join a team of
comparative skill and gaming preferences based via intelligent matching. These PUG
teams then have full access to Mogul as if they are their own registered team,
enabling all team management features on the platform.
Mogul’s Chief Product Officer, Jamie Skella, commented:
“Mogul Ladders are well and truly the next generation of gaming. Currently, ladder
systems in the industry are rare and exist mostly within pre-formed leagues. We’ve
been able to develop a ladder functionality which lets anyone at any time jump into
their favourite game title and challenge others for glory, cash and prizes.”
Video game publisher and Mogul partner, Ubisoft, will feature predominantly in the
launch of Mogul Ladder Masters today with their popular esports title Tom Clancy’s
Rainbow Six Siege in the ANZ region. Teams and individuals using Mogul Ladders will
be ranked on their results against opponents, with the goal of reaching the number
one spot on the Ladder.
Mogul Ladder Masters in ANZ will also support other esports titles of CS:GO, League
of Legends, Tekken 7 and Fortnite. In Southeast Asia, Mogul Ladder Masters will
feature esports titles Hearthstone, Arena of Valor, Mobile Legends Bang Bang, League
of Legends and CS:GO.
