EVO is one of the world's biggest and most well-known fighting game tournaments. Yearly players from every corner of the globe come out to not only compete, but to fraternize and create memories that will last a lifetime.
With the scale and magnitude of EVO within the fighting game community, this would be a perfect opportunity for Nouns Esports to expand from Smash into the larger fighting game esports sphere.
Our objective this year is for Nouns to make a splash in the fighting game esports scene by sponsoring a large group of fighting game players at the largest fighting game tournament in the world! With the new Street Fighter title, this is the year to be at EVO and there would be many opportunities for the Nouns Esports brand to catch viewer and participant attention.
Nouns Esports requests 36,000 USDC to sponsor a variety of fighting game players from around the world to attend EVO, the world’s largest fighting game tournament, taking place from Aug 4th to the 6th in 2023.
This proposal expands our esports reach into the world of fighting games.
Selection will be handled through Prop House with Nouns Esports members providing outreach directly to fighting game community encouraging players to apply on the site.
Our plan:
Funding Plan:
Last year there were over 7,000 players participating from 63 different countries, with nearly 18,000 players in attendace at the venue, and over 3.7 million people who tuned in to the live stream for the event. This year, as COVID-19 restrictions loosen in many places around the world and things return to normal, it is guaranteed to grow even bigger. Especially with the prize pool minimum for main games being increased to $25,000, there will undoubtedly be more participants coming out to try prove their worth.
Many select top players at this event are sponsored by various different companies and esports organizations, but there are many more who are either not sponsored despite their high levels of play or are sponsored but are not able to make it to Evo due to financial reasons such as lack of support from their team. This is where Nouns Esports can come into the picture.
Through players applying through Prophouse, we can sponsor select players based off of their skill as well as their needs to give them the chance to have the best possible experience at Evo. Whether it be a full ride for an extremely high level player or just a small boost to their funds, providing to the needs of the player will not only allow Nouns Esports to show their goodwill to the community, but can also spread the Nouns Esports brand and the Nouns brand to a potentially new community. Not only that, but if we can successfully sponsor the most players, it would be a huge PR win for the organization.
Nouns Esports was established in Proposal 68. We have since continued Nouns proliferation through esports as seen in Proposal 91, Proposal 112, Proposal 119.
Dota 2 & CS:GO
Pokemon Unite
Taki & Aklo
We will be using the same multisig that was created for Proposal 263 consisting of Nouners and Nounsfolk.
All in all, we are looking to make a splash in the larger fighting game esports scene by setting the right foot forward and trying to make history. We really believe that we can gain traction and show our Nounish values to the larger community to create a long lasting relationship that will benefit both sides.
