Leading esports club Team Vitality, in partnership with Tezos, an open source blockchain platform, and TradeIt, one of the world’s leading skins trading sites, are proud to unveil their new challenge designed for the Counter-Strike community. This unprecedented collaboration led to the creation and staging of an artificial intelligence based on star CS2 player ZywOo. This is the first time that a club and its partners have offered fans an interactive experience of this kind within the esports ecosystem.

NEW GAME MECHANICS: NEGOTIATE WITH ZYWOO AND EARN REWARDS 

For the first time in esport, fans have the opportunity to simulate a conversation with their favorite player. Thanks to the technology deployed by Team Vitality and its partners, fans can access the virtual platform free of charge.

The challenge? Convince ZywOo to part ways with one of the three rare CS2 skins he still has in his inventory. As ZywOo is a tough negotiator, participants must use strategy, cunning and persuasion to succeed in this mission.

Fans can use a variety of techniques to try and convince ZywOo. Each conversation with the CS “goat” will be unique with each attempt. But beware, ZywOo will not part ways with his prized skins if participants’ arguments are not strong enough. If participants don’t win the prize of their dreams, don’t panic – the game can be restarted with no limit.

This AI is available in all languages, so fans all over the world can participate.

THREE LEVELS OF REWARDS FOR THE BEST NEGOTIATORS

Team Vitality, Tezos and Tradeit have created a multi-stage immersive experience. 

Firstly, fans have to engage ZywOo in conversation in order to respond appropriately to its various questions. If a player manages to negotiate successfully, they access one of three reward levels depending on their level of persuasion:

  • Gold Coin (highest level)
  • Silver Coin (second level)
  • Bronze Coin (third level)

To claim their rewards, fans must then visit the V.Machine page on the V.Hive app. Fans will have the chance to be rewarded with V.Boxe(s), which contain wearables for users unique avatars, promotional codes or exclusive CS2 skins (worth up to €1,000).

EFFECTIVE CROSS-COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE CLUB AND ITS PARTNERS 

The collaboration between Team Vitality and its partners Tezos and TradeIt marks a significant step forward in their fan engagement strategy. Supported by Rarecubes, these three major players in the esports world have succeeded in creating an unprecedented interactive experience. Powered by blockchain technology, the interactive game aims to offer even more fun and entertaining content for Counter-Strike and Team Vitality fans.
