YGG AMA: What Evolution Brings to the Axie Competitive Scene
Following the Axie Infinity: Origins Season 7 launch, Kookoo and spamandrice joined FallenCorpsez and Sedano to answer the community’s questions about the new Superquest featuring tips for Season 7.
On January 31, YGG hosted an AMA following the launch of Axie Infinity: Origins Season 7 to answer the community’s questions about the new YGG in-game trainer and Season 7 Superquest. YGG Game Operations Manager FallenCorpsez and YGG Community Marketing Manager John Sedano led the show with YGG Elite player spamandrice and Guild Advancement Program (GAP) Ambassador Kookoo as guests. YGG co-founder Gabby Dizon and YGG Global Head of Growth Angel Pui also briefly joined the livestream to give an update on the success of the first campaign.
During the AMA, the group discussed how to participate in spam’s Season 7 Superquest, which features tips and tricks to master the new evolution mechanic and Gem Store in Axie Infinity: Origins. They also talked about mobile gaming being the preference for many gamers today, how token-gated quests open new possibilities for the YGG token’s utility, and opportunities for the community to become a big part of the games they play.
The following is an excerpt taken from the AMA, where Kookoo and spamandrice share how they feel about Season 7, what they’re most excited about, and what the introduction of Axie evolution means for the competitive scene. Watch the full recording on YouTube.
YGG AMA: Axie Season 7 Superquests
FallenCorpsez (21:49): Let's hand it back to you, Kookoo. I want to hear how you feel about Axie Season 7.
Kookoo (21:58): Like what spam said, I'm very much excited because there are new learnings coming from all the pros. We apply all those new tips, we try and experiment with new builds, and we try and observe new metas from the previous season. We take small steps to really become an expert. I'm excited to learn from spam and from the rest of the YGG Elite, because every time they stream, we learn new things, from them and also from our community, our YGG scholars who are really grinding and getting all those rewards using all the access that we have in our vault. So, yeah, I'm very much excited.
FallenCorpsez (21:49): Awesome. On that note, spam, let's dive into some of the overall tips. We're not going to dive into your content completely. We want people to traffic into that. But maybe you can give them just a tidbit of what it's going to look like.
Spamandrice (23:09): I guess I can say this. If I can describe Season 7 in one word, it’s evolution. We've all played games where we had to evolve our character or Pokémon. Whatever game you played in the past, leveling up has always given you benefits, right? In a card game like Axie Infinity, we've never really even seen this kind of experiment, this kind of feature, but it's amazing for the whole ecosystem.
Our digital pets can now be improved. They can look different when they level up, and more importantly, for me at least, they get these new buffs in-game in the competitive scene. We all grow up grinding a certain character or something like that to improve and get an edge on our competition. It just really, really rings a bell to my childhood, my upbringing, my gaming background, and it's awesome. I love it.
