the finance company was store you in your store of go offline. i knew when your store, you used to me stop thing, you know, the family will send you a ball. i used to miss dog. do you need to stop? don't ah mm. here in kasan, people have been making interesting combination support, centuries mixing, cultures, languages, architecture. and it's even located where 2 rivers meet. but what happens when you mixed digital games with actual physical sports?

something like digital. the answer is yes. ah, with prison is preparing to host the 1st ever gains of the future. a cyber contest with a physical dimension players are putting their online and real arena skills to the test. as pioneers of the fidgeted movement, one of the innovators, eager to soluble is on the verge of redefining sports and gaming. he tells us what's behind this synergy, and if it's the future, why not truly cyber spar work combination? it's kind of a hybrid between what's happening in the real world and what's happening on screen . if this is the old philosophy, you cannot achieve a good results in the digital. while not having a good physical form,

we're trying to drag them out of the computer from the you know and get them on the field, get them on the beach. ah, well, basically inventing different kinds of sports including that, that problem geisha of the cyber sport within the physical reality and vice versa. we're experimenting with all saint blue. the stakes are rising that you know, the better rising we are going into space with all this money wall to your house and it becomes not a sport, but we got set up this for it. went in here. got nice. meet you. i sure um this is unlike anything that i've seen before, it's kind of a hybrid between what's happening in the real world and, and what's happening on screen. so what's the idea behind it? the idea is actually this is the old philosophy. this is the ideology and the

reason fidget the lifestyle already. i mean, we're living through that where brittany was either of, you know, generations that are already very much in compressed by the physical lifestyle aware showing how beautiful it may be through the sports competition. and this is not just a pure aggregation, this another just a pure combination of the different fish, adult cyber sport and physical activity. this is that it, oh is it? this is that there is a certain logic behind it. so we're showing that, ah, you cannot have, you cannot achieve a good results in a digital while not having a physical at, at, at, while of having a good physical form that saw it helps in your physical activity while you're at your, your cognitive skills that you're bumping through and you're exhilarating and in hastings through the digital world, through the digital activity, they are helping your physical form as well. they're helping to sustain and they're

helping to, to improve your physical activity skills as well. so it's eat some ah, it's very interdependent, easy, our call product is astonishing. broadcasting picture in them, in the youtube, or in the trav all or in the twitch or any, any other ah, digital channel that you, you are you, you want to rebel your, your, your, your picture. and that's it. i mean, death the yesterday loverts that people were though we're doing traditional cypress for this. i was that's a new thing, the feasel lester. i physical that professional sportsman or our the either finished their career or very close to finish that or because of the age that classical sportsman right there. classical athletes. and they either already play and the side of sports in the course, wanting sometimes that boy, and of course on his was really even on a hockey player that i play fif up as for. and then i play initial for example,

but he doesn't meant necessarily me that, that play hockey in the cyber sport. i can play daughter too. i could play bob jim awhile why i can play val round or i can play like a blizzard. this is all the titles of the difference. i was point. so is different . and we're trying to in steel. there the ideology that the people of the older generation at 1st as far as raleigh doings i across because for they shouldn't be afraid of trying. it's because it's fun and it gives you are a new dimension in so it gives you a new fresh air. it gives you a new sensation, the said dresser, or you don't have to persuade the youngsters to do that because they order their, their planning for 18. 20 hours. and this is a problem because, and the whole world there i, you know, there are researches issues that try and solve this problem. they're trying to get into the breadth of the asters to, to understand how good, how that behavioral behavioral skills are changing and evolution. and, and, and they're, and being changed. so through other generation, as we, as we see,

on the other hand, we're trying to drag them out of the computer from that, you know, using an get them on the field, get them on the pitch make sense. so you mentioned that you didn't create digital sports, but his, your, i'm aim may be to create a whole new class, make it more mainstream fiscal and digital athletes becoming something that everybody knows about. yes, because we're doing that. the short answer is yes. we're doing the fact we were actually creating the federation in restaurant and that's going to be the 1st digital federation. so do we wanted to make, do we want celebrities to participate in the physical support? why those liber this were, are very much close in finishing their career as a classical sportsman class classes. they would love it and we're offering them to prolong their professional career. and it's not the sport. and we, i've taught myself would some day, you know, real like a very, very good football soccer players and the basketball players and the side. why

didn't you tell us before whether we will be able to create a professional league that we'll see. but this is going to be commercial competition. you saw somebody while there's a lot of people that would, would you know, describe lympics in the cyber sport. right. and this, but this is not a pure company, is the pure assembly of the different cyber sport discipline. this is ella bit more because we've created this physical thing. where doing it in a pure cyber sport, we're also doing the physical activity. and the people are asking how we're investing to disperse, right? so if, as a daughter to, we're going to be inventing them that the mirroring classical discipline, like the people withdrawn and job and do something and recall and so far and the scenario is not, there is not finished yet. and we're not going to reveal it before we actually do day, not to lose the secret and not to lose the trick, but we call it that fantasy classic game where the people will draw on the same map

. so we are creating by the visual production where creating the same map as if they are in the computer gave in the data to with all the spend. is it dragon's lie lying, but flying in and different creatures script being around you. and then you have to survive and discard them environment but already physically. so that's what we do in the, in the traditional times. what with, with cyber sport sport like basketball, hockey and football. it's much easier because the people are doing cyber sport. and then at the end of the physical part, right? but there are also lots of questions that you need to ask. do you need to answer? because whether it's, what are we more traditional sport sport always show more commercialized or do we want to steal more like a social factors to turn youngsters into to drag them out of the computer and meg them. and then sometimes it's a combination. yeah. there's some people are gonna think that it's just a scheme,

but that's not my assertion, right. what i want to know is you mentioned professional athletes who asked you, why did we do this before? who are these new digital athletes? and how do you train them for something that's never been done before? we we, we came to know that there are lots of physical teams that actually already exist. there were other where, while that was, they weren't there. were that fidget though, they weren't feasible. they are feasible right now, as a lot of people are a lot of kids that play more will come. but after or tech in or street fighter, all those you know, the, the fighting stuff after they actually or do the training and the my on the boxing on the martial arts things. while all of them, not all of them, but i would say 90 percent, a good 90 percent of them doing the same in the cyber sport. once they, they, they've done something on the, on the actual octagon or in the ring,

and to make them compete into that. they weren't aware. now we've made them know that we're may, we offered them the opportunity that they competes in the boss disciplines. as a lot of footballers, there's a lot of atlas and football to actually play for after or before. and we just make them aware and we set up the, the, the circumstances, the conditions we've invented that whole equity. what would go support equity for them to compete? if the format is successful, eve games of the future 2024 in march is successful, then we're going to have equal if occasion a full flash qualification. so it's going to be a schedule in different disciplines and you have to qualify to be able to compete in the gym and, and again in the future, we call that just of as the physical gapes. it has bred nate fidgeted gigs. now

that top notch competition, that the combination of the whole thing is going to be called games of the future. okay. and is going to happen on the 1st of march. the launch is on the 1st of march 2024. and this is like in the la bix, where we combine all of this, suppose that we've done that 2 or 3 times before 20222023 for the 2 years. we're going to be just in that. so we have some time to move forward to that, which i'm interested in seeing what else we have. do you mind showing me around a little bit? yeah, yeah, glad. well, let's go. lots of, there's lots of hot dogs out there. i ah all with ideally my of the of so you come from

a cyber background. oh, what made you decide to give fidel sports a try? no. which threats. okay. yeah, i really like. okay latoya. i wanted to try the professional sport, but not just the virtual one for some of the fidgety format that you experience it differently or no, i really like the way it's presented as a show which how everything looks. so it's a unique format at all because of the show we're visiting. i wish that for a month now, are there players who are good at both the virtual world and also good on the ice as well? that i yes, there's plenty of players lie that the stop. what makes a player good? a both yelder more when you move, what makes them good at bose is that they understand the game itself or they also want to excel or both. and that drives them. christabel jordan, i'm better at the cyber sport, but after i tried digital hockey, see i wanted to play the real game and practice more helicopters. what?

so i know that physical athletes have to do intense training and we know what that regime looks like. we've seen it on tv, but what do you as a cyber player, do to train and stay in shape for the game? jenny grier took longer. i don't play that much. will a couple of hours a days enough. personally, i can take one or 2 weeks off, i just understand the game very well and being in front of the computer for a long time, isn't a big problem for me. to add opportunity to speak with hockey legend me go let him of. and he said that in the real game of hockey on the ice, physically, you have to have creativity in order to be successful. is there room for creativity in cyber sports? though i was the only of course, in fact that you, i think it's one of the most important qualities for a player every player chooses. the unique approach with creativity is a must have been both in cyber sports and real hockey. okay. what about the excitement you feel when you're in a professional game? i'm is it the same professional excitement when you're playing on the ice as if you

are playing ah, the cyber sport, or is there a different feeling? um, between the 2 normally mean yeah, i've done a mom in for me is to the same excitement of as well as winning in cyber sports. i want to show, i'm good at real hockey, that i'm not only a cyber late and i want to be useful to my team which combines what is the most important thing that you want people to know about this new discipline of fidel sports. what's in it for you or changes that is room? it's great to watch on them. i will be thrilled to be in the audience. for me. it's a great spectacle. with lights and music. everythings lit up very beautiful. and it's a very dramatic site with high speed moves and impressive shots really cool. now what's your i up alright, thank you for taking the time. thank you very much. i can imagine it takes a lot of training and specific or skills to get ready for

a tournament like this can have professional hockey player be both professional on ice and in the cyber world. there some work. well, it's possible for my side. the skills are a bit lagging behind, like we trained specifically for this tournament, but mostly trained to perform and i, so i have a long way to go in terms of virtual play in logan, others for that i was having it. i was, in essence, does the combining of these 2 sports change the essence of the game that these 2 plots blend together to make up a new game of, you need to play the cyber part and then you go on the ice on. you need to have balance to make sure the 2 parts are equally strong. cyber players, they need to be in st. hockey. players need to be in st. ah. are they the same type of skills? the yes you work is it seems that there are 3 players, each of them is responsible for their own actions and also tactics. if both defensive and offensive it all needs to be aligned. and we also communicate while playing virtually, just like we do a nice giving each of attempts and does he need to have good communication for

anyone? so if i can ask, why did you get involved with us? no, i wanted to check out this form and it turned out to be great. 7 is that the way this is organized is top notch. we never had any doubts when we agree to take part in, and it has been a thrill since that i am now. we're going to fight and win. so you got a there's a lot of the tension now coming in to cyber sports in cyber games and there's international competitions, a lot of money going into it. where do you see fidel sports fitting into this bigger idea of cyber sports? ah, as i, as i said before, we're, we're not julie cyberg forward combination re, cyberspace is anyways, there are a steel, lots of cyber sports within that equity that we're gracie. but this though is something different. we want the fisher,

those court to be as popular as possible. that's why we're doing the federation. and i said, that's why we want to grow the funnel as water is possible. that's why we want to simplify the rules. and as we see here, it's hockey. it's are to simplifies, there is a simplified but the doors by the variation by the veterans while you rush veteran, whatever the maximum result, sell us that we even have to simplify it even more to grow the base for the massport. so think and remember how you play hockey while you were a kid, right? know of size, right? all face off clean time, more like the, you know, the, if the village of the question though, we're still have not decided we're ourselves yet. and through this dest of us, we're trying to solve it. we're trying to really get down to the band, whether it's the weight is more show, well,

a man or more score element. and we're trying to do the combination of both. but we're still testing the ground in terms of the finding, the optimal solution, the optimal equation for that. well, we want to have this ass as white as possible, as with mass. i mean for the masses, right? it should be a mass sport. makita. congratulations on your wind. thank if i'm so talk to me. what does a digital training session look like? the net off give but in severe the physical training is the same. drills are the same, but the ring is smaller for the cyber parts. we have professional cyber athletes who have all the necessary skills and can teach their less experienced teammates, the ropes. my role as a coach is to keep discipline so everyone listens to each other and improve all shape la jolla. enough of bushes we know that cyber players have their own set of skills potty clairs or physical players have their own set of skills. how do you strike a balance when you're training your teams?

then it off go and you must work on playing virtually is different to being on the ice obviously. but as i've said before, we have great gain pat clears. so we don't have any difficulties. sure, virtual training seems like it's easier physically, but as far as emotions are concerned, you know how people get frustrated when you see them throwing controllers and anger . so it's important to keep that to the side and suppressed those emotions when it comes to the physical part through all our players are professional athletes, so everything's going smoothly. still there are some players that are going to be better at the cyber part and some that are better at the physical part. how do you as a coach, a handle that for one that we understand each other that we trust each other? i mean, so it's fine to have cyber athletes on the eyes, or hockey players at the monitors which died in by boom when we deal in fucker glued. so our main advantage is that our cyber athletes, our former professional hockey players, oh, they played on ice for years. and at some point i knew they decided to try cyber

sports. so they're still good on the ice. but they've also master anthem. the game had him, they carry us to a certain extent or, and for that i'm grateful. yeah. much more than one question i having is a hockey, basketball. this are things that make sense because these sports actually exists. yeah. but on the digital side, you have fantastic games with recall inside the game, right? yeah. so how can you get these fantasy players involved into would be physical world? is that even a possible thing? it's quite, it's a good question. it's quite difficult. so a basically from the classical sport, if you are to, if you are looking at that for the service work, guys us in cyber sports sports, we are yet saying that professional sports wescal, sports teams and we're making them play cyber sport. mostly that's how it big the teams friends, and that you are a cyber spring all up your cyber sport, like the other to say is go of all or on bob g as address cetera. we're doing more at way where i figured out the cyber sportsman and make him do the physical read.

but even in those cyber sports, there's a games where people are trying to survive and doing other things, right. you have names that translate for those people as well. those people who are interested in a different type of a sport van hockey or basketball. yeah. so but, but i would do that. we're inviting the experts where we're having the regular running committees. so just say where, when, why it's sitting the people from the cypress for the people from the class most for the people from the media, the people owed of the show. all the different got people would call it a lab laboratory. well, it basically invents in different kinds of sport, right? not including that, that prolongation of the cyber sport within the physical rayleigh to and vice versa . we're experimenting with all kinds of things like in the la boat life roberts or circumstances. so to say, how fast a lot of people think about cyber games and just gaming as interchangeable. they

don't really understand the difference that there is such thing as cyber sports. um and the attitude that people have about gaming in general is not always the most healthy. ah, how do you change this attitude in this perception with the general public? cyber sport is a real sport. you have to have, you have to have really proficient skills to be able to do god, duke and bathed in the real competition with this. i was, was really sport. it's, it's if there's a set of skills others required for the size for it, athletes is enormous. you have to be good at the physical conditions as well. we'll talk about that. but, you know, there are the 2 different markets of the people sometimes mix. they stood over and stass as there's a video gaming market, which as i told you, i think it's something like it's estimated for a different races. estimates as estimate as $200000000000.00 and a cyber sport layer on top of that is $2000000000.00. right. so the, there the, the private game developers,

they are growing the cyber sport layer up to, off to maximum. they are making the role models out of the professional athletes, right? so drag out to drive the sport, the video, video game in market. and to gain super emergence and they investing in the cyber sport atlas. that's how the con orks, that's very primitive. but basically that equation is like that. you have to have a certain and very specific and very, very specific settle skills to be able to compete as a professor asked let grab, ah, once we, once you are doing this kind of confusion like we're doing, you're always having a choice energy and why the tier one tips is traditional tier one teams that has been able to compete in the other competition like that read or to really goal fidget all which is to select carefully those people or,

or having like physical and, and digital skills as well. right? we wanted to balls because we all saw want to have what we call another feel our in our competition which, which is which is d. o. in february or in march. we're actually starting in the 1st of march in 2024. we want to also grow a specific gamers for the russian gates. okay. okay. the slayer is non existent or very, very thin right now we're, we're trying to trigger the different blood se, industrial sub in straight to also girl this market. right? the reason there is a major difference that, that, that there's a manger major in flaws, are all flows. there's a major difference with a video game in industry. this ibis, warden's, however, they have very much center to bend up because you cannot have this without that. and the vice versa understand, so that's what we did. you mentioned the economics about everything. and what i know is that not that long ago,

2010 would say the prize money for these international competitions for cyber sports was only about $40000.00. now it's about millions of dollars for suckers course. is this the global shown to the future, or is there some bubble? $40000.00 in messages, $1010.00 down. and then 2021 november they international with the russian t one team spirit. they, they, they brought to russia, $18000000.00 on the $40000000.00. there was a price one for the international. yeah, it's a global trend. first of all, so that, that the stakes are rising. that, that, you know, the better rising and over all their level as i is going up. whether it's good or not, maybe not because it's been over in the quite a little bit. and everybody's talking about that. i mean, the experts of talking with the cyber scores and maybe over inflated where going into space with all this money lodging around and in big abs dot us more about because their competition for money gray,

which is not good for sport. we don't argue that's happening in sports sports as well. yeah. but the thing is that, that ha, with digital we are, we are not going out of the range. because we've claimed that we're going to have $25000000.00 as the overall prize for all the aides. so it's much less than the international which is given away afford a $1000000.00 or much less of the walls that is given. i think some like $18000000.00 or much less than i am. the major, which is another homogeneous championship or ibis horse, which is i think, some like a $13000000.00. i mean for the start, i think this is inevitable where buying the buy, where it buy it as well. so, kat, seeing that, that distance to that, to, to get into that, as we said, main street, we want to be measured. and that is exactly why we're doing the saying, while we once the crowd to be international as why way in wising, as many people as possible with in these circumstances,

we're not targeting the west. explicable is. so while we are by we are, we're always saying we're open architecture, we're not walking the u. s. teams to golf when i walk in europe used to come where often woke up everybody, welcome the whole world. however, where talk where it's at right now, work in the death of our special int estimate. we're working more because it's easier, right? talk with asia with his china middle is he them of saudi arabia. and then you have, you have everybody, you have se, asia loss of this. got the yes, if you're working with indonesia and, and then china, then basically you're working with a half of the waldrop, the walls population. but, but, but will that for the beacon are the teams and there and to work with the publishers. it's easier for us in the circumstances to work with the asian. however, as i said, we're a very much welcome eager gets a big idea. it's going to be interesting to see how this all plays out. thank you

very much for taking some time. thank you shown here, and your shaded looking for to ah, to nations may be able to turn a blind eye to atrocities. another comes feel i was states of america is different . wearable people long to be free. they will find a friend in the united states. ah, o, a human being allowed to get it out by the body of the ball to anybody basie. so the city jaw. you look at the book they incentives of each cigarette. color revolutions is one among several meanings to reach the goal of conquering foreign lands and bringing

them onto the help of u. s. weston economic interests. people in sadie, i didn't that needed to go by the democrats. yeah. during training class. so no, that's a little there. softball m. a cat. and the final goal of these thing revolutions is to ensure that there are no independent players in the world anymore. i think russia in the 21st century has taken several opportunities to try to see if there would be interested in the west to create new boundaries to create a new relationship. and as you mentioned, time and time and time again, it would get flatly rejected because we have sort of pushed russia into this corner, ideologically attitude way to say you're the adversary. you're the, we may not be in a formal bipolar ideological cold war anymore. but we're not going to allow

a new relationship to develop with ah, with this yes, i said, november 22nd 2022 count raised orthodox christians, confronted ukrainian security service officers, locking entrances and exits to keep the oldest monastery. were looking for an alleged russian spies among the monks.
