MADMONQ launches Ground-Breaking Nutritional Chewable for Gamers
As one of the most disruptive companies in Central Europe merging Health & Gaming, MADMONQ introduces their latest health solution. MADMONQ Champion is the first all-inclusive daily health supplement for gamers.
MADMONQ saw the alarming amount of experienced and novice players facing dangerous threats caused by their dedication to gaming. As one of the fastest-growing industries, the bodily risks are urgent yet largely unnoticed by major faces in the health industry.
Some symptoms reported by gamers after frequent sessions online include: lower energy levels, weakened immunity, and bone/joint aches. Studies increasingly show a connection between common nutritional deficiencies and symptoms affecting gamers’ performance.
“MADMONQ wants to be an inspiration to the gaming community; we want to help them become better, push themselves beyond their limits, and win.” states Michal Noga, founder of MADMONQ. As a passionate gamer with expertise in a pharma founded company in 2016, he saw frequent abuse of bad substances and prescription drugs (doping) for focus in professional matches.
Health problems reported by even professional players were mentioned in several studies, for example Dr. Zwibel et al. (2019) reported that esports athletes experience: eye fatigue (56%), neck and back pain (42%), wrist pain (36%), and hand pain (32%).
The popularity of supplements is quickly rising as scientific understanding develops on how they help our body adapt to hostile environments (stress, pollution). And help our biological processes cope with insufficient diets and sedentary lifestyles. Usage is only growing every year, but their adoption by gamers lags far behind other demographics, along with their health awareness.
That is why MADMONQ worked over the year to develop an all inclusive supplement for gamers health called MADMONQ Champion. One tablet a day helps combat 30+ symptoms of common health deficiencies confronting today’s players. Champion is a chewable Caffeine and Sugar-free power-up that’s designed for the unique bodily demands, stresses, and conditions faced at home and in esports.
MADMONQ has been charging down the overlooked path of bringing sustainability into gaming for over four years.
After releasing their first natural energy-boosting alternative to unhealthy sugary drinks, start-up co-founders and lifelong gamers Michal Noga (CEO) and Petr Andrýsek (CMO) have continued their partnership intent on innovating health and gaming towards a 2030 vision: to convince gamers’ that their most important piece of hardware is their well-being.
They’ve refused skipping a single step to accomplish this mission and continue to provide cutting-edge and cost-friendly alternatives to the hurtful products that saturate the market for players today.

Skyesports, the premier global IP and community builder, has successfully wrapped up the first-ever edition of Gaming Thiruvizha at the Chennai Trade Centre on August 30–31, bringing together more than 17,000 fans across two unforgettable days of gaming, anime, stand-up comedy, cosplay, music, and culture.
Gaming Thiruvizha turned out to be more than an event as it became a two-day carnival. From esports showdowns at LAN zones to cosplay walks, live stand-up, and Tamil cultural showcases, the Chennai crowd transformed the Trade Centre into a festival that truly belonged to them. Fans didn’t just attend; they stayed, celebrated, and created memories together.
The audience mix was as vibrant as the festival itself: college students, families, and kids all came together, proving that gaming and anime are no longer niche hobbies, but shared cultural movements.
Powered by AMD, with ticketing exclusively on KYN, Gaming Thiruvizha was hosted in association with the Sports Development Authority of Tamil Nadu (SDAT) and supported by AGS Cinemas as the Chennai Edition Theatre Partner.
Commenting on the conclusion of the Gaming Thiruvizha, Shiva Nandy, Founder and CEO, Skyesports, said, “We couldn’t have asked for a better first edition of the Gaming Mahotsav. The energy of the crowd and the diversity of the audience reminded us why we built this IP — to bridge the gap between casual gamers and esports, and to create a space where gaming, anime, and culture thrive together. Next up, we will be bringing the concept to Bangalore in late September,” said Shiva Nandy, Founder and CEO of Skyesports.
The festival also welcomed dignitaries including Meghantha Reddy (Sports Development Authority of Tamil Nadu), Darez A. (MD, Guidance Tamil Nadu), and Gayathri Thyagarajan (Founder & CEO, Kynhood Technologies), underlining the growing recognition of gaming and esports as part of Tamil Nadu’s cultural and creative economy.
Highlights of the event include:
- LAN tournaments across BGMI, Valorant, and other titles, with fans cheering players on in true stadium style.
- A pan-India Cosplay competition bringing cosplayers from across the country with stunning costumes judged by top creators and anime experts.
- Red Bull Armageddon, India’s first all-Armageddon format chess tournament, brought together over 350 players in Chennai with International Master Tania Sachdev and Grandmaster M. Shyam Sundar leading the action.
- Merch alleys buzzing with anime and gaming collectibles alongside local Tamil art.
- Stand-out experiential booths and meet-and-greets with Team Tamilas, Autobotz Esports, and Welt Esports.
- PVR Cinemas set up local food experience stalls for attendees
With India on track to reach 700 million gamers by 2027, and anime/cosplay engagement skyrocketing across social media, Gaming Thiruvizha demonstrated that hyperlocal, immersive festivals are the way forward.
Gaming Thiruvizha is the first chapter of Skyesports’ Gaming Mahotsav, a six-city touring pop culture festival with regional editions in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Kochi, and Pune. Each stop blends gaming, anime, music, comics, and local culture into one cohesive community celebration.
