Hi NRS,@noobde
I hosted a $500 tournament for African players yesterday, tried to seek out a Pro kompetition for Africa. However, i think we have bigger issues than a pro event, I ran into serious matchmaking issues that slowed the event down. What should’ve taken a few hours ended up taking over six, just to stream the top 12 matches.

It seems players can’t be in the same KOTH lobby while on the same network. I even tested it with my moderator—we were in the same house, using different accounts and separate PS Plus subscriptions, but the issue kept happening.
I’ve spent over $10,000 hosting tournaments across Africa, both online and offline, and have been keeping the African community active. But after today’s experience and all the complaints, I’m worried players won’t come back.
I’m not a network expert, but if you can fix these matchmaking problems, I’d be more than happy to keep supporting the African MK scene with more events.
Thanks.
If you are seeing this help retweet to get the message @noobde, we cried out for servers in the western part, they heard us and responded, hope they fix this asap,
Thank you in advance

The development strategy of Ghana Esports was not conceived by an individual, any discussion about Ghana Esports would be incomplete without acknowledging Liam from @AnTrixGaming
This is Liam, who has imparted invaluable knowledge to the Ghana Esports community. As one of the co-founders of Ghana Esports, his contributions are noteworthy.
His focus has never been on travel and tour businesses. He believes in serving the Esports community, not individuals, and once you find yourself in the community, you will be served. Liam is a teacher! Liam the Esports legend 🫡 Free Ghana Esports History
