Apeiron, the first-ever web3 god game, has announced a partnership with Hong Kong-based TALON and LA-based United Esports to host the Apeiron x TALON Nova Tournament.
Apeiron is a unique game that combines classic and modern gameplay to create an exciting entertainment experience. The tournament will showcase Apeiron’s PvP to the world, with the Eastern Conference (Asia) scheduled for April 4-6 and the Western Conference (Americas) for April 11-13.
The tournament will follow a double-elimination bracket format, with matches being best-of-3 and the final matches being best-of-5. Each player will bring 3 decks, each with a different Avatar, and once a deck has won a game, it may not be used again within that set. The total prize pool is $30,000, split equally between the two conferences, with rewards ranging from $750 to $5,000 for the top Apeiron competitors.
Participation is by invitation only, and fans can influence the selection by requesting their favorite Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) to join. The participants include notable members of the Web2 and Web3 gaming space.
Web2 participants include League of Legends pro player Tsai “GreenTea” Shang-Ching, Thailand content creator gamtoh, Wild Rift analyst Kitiphat “Cyberclasher” Kanjanapiphat, top TeamFightTactics player RobinSongz, content creator and chess Woman Grandmaster Nemo, master of card games Deathsie, and the most viewed English Hearthstone streamer Rdu.
Web3 participants include GamingGridX founder Yellow Panther, Axie Infinity player 1437, GGChronicles’ raiden, crypto gamers esushima, content creator orangie, content creator Brycent, US content creator rojan, Twitch streamer ralo, and METAT8 Esports founder Elijah Flowers.
“We are excited to partner with TALON and United Esports from both the East and West to bring competitive web3 esports to a wider audience seeking strategic and fast-paced gameplay. Apeiron’s unique gaming experience challenges players’ strategic thinking, reflexes, and ability to improvise, offering an exhilarating experience for both streamers and viewers to witness and share the most epic clutch moments and comebacks,” commented Frank Cheng, CEO of Foonie Magus.
“The appetite and opportunity for esports within the Web3 space continues to grow and what we love about Apeiron is that it has a low floor making it easy to come in and play, but a high ceiling for experienced players to grow into their mastery of the game,” said Jazz Tham, Co-Founder of TALON.
