Tags: Gaming, Esports, Blockchain, Quarter Reports, Token Economy

Dear Contributor,

The end of the third quarter of 2019 ushers in the third edition of the DreamTeam Contributors Quarterly Report. In our last Quarterly Report, we mentioned that the primary focus of Q2 was to evaluate the DreamTeam platform and feature KPI’s, highlight areas of opportunity, and outline possible strategic pivots. As a result, our metrics have never been higher. In Q3, DreamTeam focused on the development of our strategic pivots, adding support for a fourth game, updating our current platform features, and more. Keep in mind, if you don’t follow our monthly Development Reports, DreamTeam is working on a huge update that, at the current moment, cannot be publicly discussed. Let’s take a look at what we can discuss that has changed, in the last three months, on DreamTeam, the infrastructure platform for players, teams, tournaments, and sponsors.

Traction

With refined KPI’s and the removal of a few bottlenecks, DreamTeam’s metrics have never been higher. In Q3, we’ve seen a month-over-month increase in registrations, conversation rates, ARPU, and monthly active users. Even though we’ve seen a spike in our numbers, we are continuing to run a few A/B tests. For now, let’s take a look at some of the Q3 numbers:

6 major updates

1 new platform game

5500 users engaged with for feedback

1.7M emails sent

Product Development

In the past three months, DreamTeam’s added support for its fourth platform game, added and updated Apex Legends and Fortnite features, and launched performed a long list of A/B tests to help improve user acquisition and retention numbers.

Modules

In Q3, DreamTeam launched the following new platform module: the DreamTeam Playground. The feature was designed to help push a Player’s skills further without needing to have opponents readily available.

DreamTeam Playground: contains a series of packs that test existing skills and teach new tactics. Users simply click on a pack, choose a challenge, complete it, and DreamTeam will automatically give the user a pass/fail score. If they pass, they move on. If they fail, they have to try again.

Platform Features

The primary focus for platform features in Q3 was communication: the CS:GO and LoL DreamTeam Chat feature became a larger part of the recruitment process and the Apex Legends and Fortnite LFGs were updated with the following changes:

New Post Algorithm — Our LFG no longer displays posts based on when they were posted. Although doing that is helpful, it isn’t really what is most important to players who use our LFG feature. The DreamTeam LFG now displays posts based on who is currently online first.

Blockchain Development

Implementation and Integration of the DreamTeam Token to the platform remains one of the key priorities for our Blockchain and Payments team. Over the last few months, DreamTeam has taken the following steps towards the acceptance and support of the DREAM Token.

DreamTeam Tokenomics 2020

At the end of Q3, we began to work on our new Tokenomics model, which will provide our users and contributors with the best understanding of how our Token will be integrated into the platform. The release of the new document is planned for the beginning of Q4.

Delegated Transactions

In Q3, we developed a unique feature for the DREAM Token — delegated transactions, meaning that token holders don’t need to pay transfer fees in Ether anymore. This drastically simplifies the usage of the DREAM Token and leads to smoother adoption, as users don’t need to manage two currencies (DREAM and Ether) nor do they need to buy Ether from exchanges.

Delegated transaction support is a feature that makes the DREAM Token stand out, as there’s a special required functionality that has to be pre-programmed into the token smart contracts. Read more about this feature in our blog.

Events

DreamTeam continues to participate in events around the world in order to meet with blockchain opinion leaders, talk about DreamTeam and the DREAM Token, and expand our database of useful contacts. In Q3 2019, our Blockchain Developer spoke at the BlockchainUA Conference where he talked about the new feature developed for the DreamTeam Token — Delegated Transactions. Our team representatives also took part in the conference for networking and meeting with industry experts. Also in September, DreamTeam took part in the national round of EASAwards and won in 2 categories “Best Blockchain Startup” and “Best Fintech Startup”. DreamTeam has moved on to the regional round to compete with countries from the Euroasian region.

Media

In Q3, the Media team continued to support all of the DreamTeam product launches and updates, including the task bundles for Playground, added new maps to the Practice Games map pool, updated Apex profiles, created a widget for Apex streamers, added Apex challenges, and the launched Fortnite. Also, we prepared a content strategy for Q4 aimed to increase traffic and the number of registrations.

The Media team produced the following content for all DreamTeam owned media channels:

Created, posted, and promoted 48 unique articles for Apex, CS:GO, and Fortnite.

Created 11 new videos for DreamTeam’s CS:GO YouTube channel and 3 for the Apex YouTube channel.

DreamTeam’s owned media stats:

2.6 million people reached

900,000+ YouTube views

In terms of registrations, DreamTeam reduced content production starting in August, yet was still maintaining a 0.03% conversion rate due to changes in promotion and Fortnite’s launch.

PR

DreamTeam continues to work on creating different kinds of content to keep our key audiences up-to-date on the DREAM Token as well as DreamTeam news and product updates. In Q3, we were mentioned in 15 articles including Gamedev.net, Altcoin Buzz, The Bitcoin News, Ain.Ua and others. Our CEO was also interviewed by CoinCentral and CardRates. We updated our contributors with the latest DreamTeam news and released three DreamTeam Digests and three DreamTeam Development Reports.

Customer Support

The Support team received a high customer satisfaction rate of 84% and was also able to maintain a solid average first-response time of 20 minutes. In Q3, we sent 683 customer surveys and received a response rate of 17%. Overall, we received 99 positive and 21 negative satisfaction ratings. With the Q3 Apex Prime release, the Support team started to provide 24/7 live chat support for Prime users.

The past three months have been amazing in terms of features added, positive feedback received, and user engagement. In case you missed the Q2 DreamTeam Contributors Report, you can read it here.
