The Philippine esports scene has recently welcomed a significant development, as local celebrity Julius "Banoobs" Mariano launched a new streaming platform, YGS Live. This platform aims to integrate iGaming creators and only allows the promotion of legal gambling sites licensed by PAGCOR, in an effort to combat illegal activities. Additionally, the platform has launched a major event, "Battle of the Streamers," with a prize pool of 11 million pesos, expected to influence industry standards.
Platform Launch and Objectives
The launch of YGS Live marks a new development in the Philippine esports content ecosystem. As a veteran in the industry, Banoobs emphasizes that the platform's goal is not only to provide streaming services but also to create a safe and responsible creator community. He states that influence comes with responsibility, hence YGS Live will educate players and audiences, promoting the health and transparency of iGaming content.
Event Highlights and Rules
Upon its launch, the platform introduced an international event, "Battle of the Streamers," scheduled to take place every Saturday starting November 15, with the finals set to be held in January next year at Resorts World Manila. The event invites top iGaming influencers to participate, with all contestants required to exclusively promote platforms licensed by PAGCOR, highlighting YGS Live's compliance philosophy.
Industry Impact and Trends
Banoobs points out that this rule sends a clear signal to the industry, demanding creators to stop endorsing illegal gambling platforms and pushing for transparency. As the Philippine government continues to crack down on illegal online gambling, YGS Live's positioning is seen as aligning with trends and potentially shaping the future direction of streaming and gambling content.
