Question: How have you seen the community grow from the time you started to now?

Owais- The Esports community is dynamic. There have been a lot of new teams and players since I started. Many have stuck around from the start as well. The talent and skills shown by players and coaches are of the highest level. It is a well-knit community where everyone looks after each other. Helping each other will help us make India a global powerhouse in India.

Question: Since you one time said that you haven’t had a salary in a long while, how is CC coming out to be as a career for someone who almost laid the foundation stone of pubg (now bgmi) in India?

Owais- I have always had a strong liking for content creation. It is one of the best ways to engage and interact with your fans. I am glad and humbled to play a role in laying the foundation of BGMI in India. We have been through some of the most difficult times, and seeing how the community is right now, it brings me immense joy. I am equally focused on content creation and playing professionally.

Question: What’s the next game plan for you and the team you’re building?
