S8UL Esports Demolishes Global Gaming Contenders at MOBIES 2024
In another loud declaration of dominance, S8UL Esports has electrified the international gaming landscape, snatching the ‘Mobile Organisation of the Year‘ at the MOBIES 2024 in Los Angeles. And it’s more than a trophy—it’s a seismic statement about India’s emerging gaming ecosystem.
Imagine competing against gaming giants like Brazil’s LOUD (co-owned by football sensation Vinicius Jr.) and Fluxo, North America’s Tribe Gaming, and Indonesia’s EVOS—and still emerging victorious. That’s exactly what S8UL accomplished, dismantling international expectations with surgical precision.
PayalGaming Wins Streamer Of The Year
Payal Dhare’s journey is the stuff of legend. Growing up in Chindwara, where traditional expectations suffocated female aspirations, she transformed her passion into power. Introduced to PUBG in 2018 during her engineering studies, Payal rewrote the rulebook with her gaming skills.
Her ‘Streamer of the Year‘ victory is personal—it’s a smack in the head to every doubter who said gaming wasn’t for girls. Beating international nominees like Brazil’s Nobru and Indonesia’s RRQ Lemon, Payal’s made a mark for herself this year.
The Numbers Don’t Lie
- 3.7 million Instagram followers
- 4.2 million YouTube subscribers
- First female Indian gamer to win an international streaming award
- Part of a growing demographic where 44% of Indian gamers are now women
S8UL’s Vision: More Than Just Gamers
S8UL is now a globally famous esports organization that is also a content powerhouse; engineered by visionaries like Animesh Agarwal (8Bit Thug), Naman Mathur (Mortal), and Lokesh Jain (Goldy).
What sets S8UL apart is their competitive edge and their ability to transform the concept of gaming from a niche hobby to a legitimate career path. They’re not just playing games; they’re creating ecosystems, breaking stereotypes, and challenging societal norms.
Let’s talk bragging rights: S8UL is the first esports organization to win ‘Content Group of the Year’ at the global Esports Awards three consecutive times.
The MOBIES 2024 award is a big win but just another part of S8UL’s journey—it’s a checkpoint. With nominees like Naman Mathur (Mortal) up for ‘Mobile Content Creator of the Year’ and events that draw thousands, they’re sketching the blueprint for India’s gaming renaissance.
The Larger Context
In an industry often dominated by Western and East Asian narratives, S8UL represents something revolutionary: a distinctly Indian gaming identity that’s unapologetically bold, technologically savvy, and globally competitive.
PayalGaming and S8UL aren’t just participating in the global gaming conversation—they’re leading it, one stream, one tournament, one barrier-breaking moment at a time.
The message is clear: Indian gaming has arrived, and it’s here to stay.
