Team Brutality founder, Counter-Strike and VALORANT pro Ankit “V3nom” Panth chats to host Frankie Ward about his love for gaming and his journey into esports in the latest episode of Save Your Game. Now known as one of the most iconic esports figures in India, V3nom recalls how his journey into gaming had an unlikely origin - pinball on his dad's office computer. A love affair with Counter-Strike led him to become a regular at a gaming cafe until he could afford his first computer aged 21, while he also recalls how he struggled to attend his first competitive LAN experience that truly kick-started his career. Unsurprisingly, Counter-Strike nailed the top spot on his list of games, while the iconic football series FIFA earned a spot for helping him keep in touch with his family. VALORANT which V3nom is transitioning to with M42 esports has quickly become an esports giant, and takes the third spot in his saved games.Make sure you hit follow to be the first to hear about season two.

Not all gamers are esports fans, but it’s worth paying attention to this particular segment of gaming fandom. Here are just a few reasons why: – 2019 was a milestone year for global esports. The global esports economy surpassed $1 billion this past year, a year-over-year growth of +26.7%, notes Newzoo’s 2019 Global Esports Market Report. – The total esports audience is staggering. Comprised of both esports enthusiasts and occasional viewers, the esports audience currently totals 454 million and is projected to grow to 645 million by 2022, according to Newzoo. – Investment in esports is surging. According to the 2019 Esports Survey of esports and traditional sports professionals, nearly half of respondents (47%) expect an increase in esports investment over the next year. To gain insight into the esports audience, we spoke to esports host and presenter Frankie Ward. She has hosted and covered events such as the ESL Hearthstone Premiership Final, the PC Gaming Show at E3, and the ESL Intel Extreme Masters CS:GO Major Championship. Previously, she was a producer at Twitch and now streams on the platform as a Twitch partner. But her talents don’t stop there: In her spare time, Frankie streams on her Twitch channel and produces and presents the interview podcast My Life in Pixels. Like what you see? Subscribe to our newsletter and podcast. Here are highlights from the conversation, edited for clarity. Esports are more welcoming than you’d think “As esports fans, we're kind of responsible for educating others and getting them involved. We should be trying to make our community bigger. There is a ring-fencing aspect to it. Sometimes it's a bit like when you have your favorite band and suddenly everyone else discovers them, and you're just like, ‘No, you're not a real fan. I am.’ There is that problem, which is why I was terrified of starting Counter-Strike in the first place. But then I got in, and it became a dream. So we do need to be more welcoming to new people and show them what it's all about, which is why I'm always trying to encourage people to go to live events.” Esports spectatorship is different than traditional sports fandom “The audience wants to emulate their heroes because they're the same age as them. I was interviewing a 17-year-old onstage, and he went to the same tournament in 2016 and watched in the audience. These kids actually watch these sports knowing that they could one day be up there playing alongside or against their heroes. And I don't think that's the same in football. In football, if you don't start when you're six years old and get spotted by a talent scout early, you're not going to do it. So the best you can do is eat a Pukka Pie and drink some beer on the sidelines. And there is nothing wrong with that. But with esports, there is so much aspiration and hope. You're so much closer to the players than you are in traditional sports, and that's really exciting.”

The Outcast has been described as a deeply romantic, uncomfortably honest coming-of-age story set in booming post-war Britain. A best-selling novel by Sadie Jones, the book has been adapted by Sadie for BBC One with Iain Softley directing the two-parter. Iain Softley is probably better known as a director of Hollywood blockbusters such as Hackers, The Wings of the Dove, K-Pax and Inkheart. So how did he come to directing an adaptation for TV? Iain speaks to Frankie Ward about how he felt so connected to the story he was compelled to direct it. He talks about the different methods he uses when working with actors including George Mackay, who plays the lead character Lewis. The importance of sound design and music to telling the story is also discussed. Composer Ed Shearmur worked on the score, having worked with Iain on The Wings of the Dove. Iain's early years as a director are explored as he talks about making documentaries and how reading English at university enabled him to become an accomplished storyteller.
