Hey ProductHunt, one of the co-founders here! I'm not sure how big of an eSports community is here on PH, but we've always found it difficult to keep up with what's going on in the eSports scene... even simple things like finding out who's playing next week. As eSports is now the #3 most-watched sport in the U.S now, we found this ridiculous. So a couple months ago, we started building Instant eSports to address the lack of a central place for eSport fans.
Happy to answer any questions about the Instant eSports and/or if you just want to learn/chat more about eSports!
This is awesome. Rick and Jonathan always know how to build great products and experiences. Look forward to seeing you guys completely disrupting eSports.
@wterhalle Hey Wouter! Yeah definitely. We're wrapping up CS:GO in these next 2 weeks and will be adding SC2 and Hearthstone by end of July! Please do share any awesome game-specific features that you'd be interested in seeing as a fan.
Is there a spoiler-free mode in case I want to VOD the latest games before knowing the final score? I manage to do this well with reddit. Where do you source the esport content and news from? Do you create articles in-house or do you source it from other places?
Lots of questions before downloading :)
@thibautdavoult Hey Thibaut,
Yes we do have a spoilers free mode, you can turn it on in the settings. We source the content from various publishers, and currently don't publish any content.
Questions and comments most welcome :)
@esportsrick Thanks a lot for the swift reply. It's all I needed to know before checking it out :) Sounds very promising!
btw, I just replied to a few questions on a google form via a thread on /r/leagueoflegends. That sounded like the exploration of a very similar product. I hope that was you, but if it wasn't, then you have a competitor coming soon!
@thibautdavoult There's a patch that's in app store processing right now that has the better spoiler view I mentioned in the above comment. I thought it was already shipped... It should be up later today.

As a former professional CS player, I still think products that compliment the e-sports space is untapped. Twitch was just on the cusp of it before selling to Amazon, and there's room for so much more. This looks cool!
