Scheduled to commence online on August 7th, the LAN tournament will take place in September. Among the invited LAN teams participating in BetBoom Dacha are Team Spirit, the champions of Riyadh Masters, Gaimin Gladiators, winners of Bali Major, and Team Aster, who secured fourth place at The International 2022.
As per FISSURE's announcement, BetBoom Dacha aims to create a more laid-back and relaxed atmosphere compared to the typical high-stake professional events held in arenas. To achieve this, the LAN event will be hosted in a private house located in Yerevan, Armenia.
In a departure from traditional studio settings, the event will embrace a more casual ambiance, complete with a pool and grill area. Moreover, formal interviews will be replaced with informal and relaxed conversations. The description of BetBoom Dacha bears resemblance to that of Beyond the Summit, a renowned Dota 2 esports tournament organizer that closed earlier this year.
The LAN showcase will feature seven teams, starting on September 10th, with one spot reserved for teams competing online. The online competition will see Virtus.Pro, Nigma Galaxy, Nemiga Gaming, Level Up, Alliance, One Move, Luna Galaxy, and KZ Team vying for that coveted spot.
Additionally, BetBoom's own esports team will be among the competitors, following their recent participation in Gamers8's Riyadh Masters 2023, where they claimed $800,000 after securing the 5th/6th position. In recent times, the organization also announced the formation of a CS:GO roster.
FISSURE revealed that the house hosting the event will be equipped with cameras to capture content throughout the tournament, enhancing the overall viewer experience.
BetBoom isn't the only bookmaker exploring the potential of esports to bolster its brand and offer fans exciting events. Betting company Pinnacle organizes the Pinnacle Cup, a CS:GO and Dota 2 tournament series, which included a successful LAN event in Sweden last year.
