    MATCH TICKER

    This new section displays the following content:

    • All the Featured Tournaments we cover
    • Featured tournaments from the eSport disciplines you follow
    • Individual toornaments you’re following.

    This new approach mixes manual picks from the user side and automated picks from our app, making it easier to follow and discover Esport events.

    The Match ticker UI helps you find a match the easy way, using two navigation timelines. The horizontal timeline lets you browse past, current and future tournaments. The vertical navigation timeline on the right focuses on the chosen day and features blue highlights on the hour a match occurs.

    The new Match Block boasts two new icons: VOD and Stats. The first one indicates whether a video from the match is available. The second one is an incoming feature which will display stats from enabled games (Dota2, LoL, Blood Bowl etc.)
