Raz Friedman, one of the company’s co-founders, similarly conveyed his confidence in the game and enthusiasm for a future where “sports, strategy, and RPGs converge seamlessly.”
Additionally, he elaborated on the game’s status as a platform that enables players to “go pro” and provided observations on the gaming industry’s future as a whole:
