Clout Fantasy: Creating a Gamified Experience for Esports Fans with AI

Overview

Overview

Clout Fantasy is an innovative app that allows esports fans to participate in betting events with their favorite teams in global games like LoL, CS, Rocket League, Valorant, and Rainbow Six. To stand out in the market, Clout Fantasy integrated a gamification system using AI-generated art to create an immersive universe that emotionally connects with users and boosts engagement. As Product Designer, my role was to design a rewards system, a battle pass with a unique lore, and a bonus system that would enhance the product-market fit and establish a loyal, active user base.
