“Cheer for those who cheer for us”: FAVBET calls on Ukrainian football fans to support Ukraine’s allies at the 2022 World Cup

Published

November 20 marked the kickoff of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. An event long anticipated by football fans and quite unique in several respects. This year, for the first time ever, the World Cup takes place in the Middle East, in winter, and… against the backdrop of the largest military confrontation in Europe since World War II.

While the stands of Qatari stadiums explode with applause, Ukrainian fans hear explosions in the streets of their cities, and the Ukrainian army bravely resists unprovoked Russian aggression on the several thousand kilometers of frontlines.

However, even in such circumstances, FAVBET and Kyiv-based creative agency Taktika found a way to engage Ukrainian fans and remind the world that football is not only about fighting, but also about unity and support that goes beyond the borders.

“The world will not see our team on Qatar’s football pitches, but for almost a year it has been watching our fight on a pitch of a different kind – the battlefield. And not only watching, but tirelessly supporting. England, the Netherlands, Spain, Poland, the USA, France and many other countries have been supplying and training the Ukrainian military, providing shelter to our citizens and defending our interests on the diplomatic front. We decided that the World Cup is a great opportunity to say thank you to Ukraine’s allies for this unwavering support,” says FAVBET’s creative copywriter Mykola Bezkrovnyi.

The campaign is based on short videos shot on the streets of Ukraine’s capital city of Kyiv. The centerpiece of the story are the Ukrainian fans with vintage scarves, which, many years ago, they waved during the matches of Ukraine’s team against our current allies. “We once held these scarves because we fiercely wanted to defeat you. We hold them now because we sincerely want you to win. Just like you want us to win too,” says the voiceover of the campaign’s manifesto.

This campaign was Favbet’s idea, and our task was to find the best form and style for it. We realized that we once used to be opponents on the football pitch with almost all of our current allies. Now, the scarves from these matches are turning from symbols of our rivalry into those of unity. Many fans still have them at home as a memory. We decided to use thescarves as a powerful visual symbol and built a campaign around them,” says Roman Gurbanov, Taktika co-founder and creative director.

In addition to the manifesto, the campaign also includes videos dedicated to supporting particular Ukrainian allies like Poland and England. The videos were shot by Ukraine-based studio Digital Religion known for their advertising work for the world’s leading brands like Samsung, Visa, Pepsi, Uber, and others. Check out the videos on FAVBET’s YouTube:

Support those who support us

FAVBET’s new campaign is not only a token of gratitude to the allies, but also a reminder that the war, unlike a football match, does not end with the referee’s whistle. While the World Cup will wrap up in a few weeks, Ukraine will continue its fight against the aggressor that seeks to destroy Ukrainian identity and its need for support will remain as high as ever. That is why FAVBET Foundation is now accepting international donations so that football fans from all over the world can also contribute to Ukraine’s victory.

As an international company with Ukrainian roots, FAVBET has been supporting Ukraine since the first days of Russia’s full-scale invasion, implementing numerous humanitarian initiatives and providing the Ukrainian military with the necessary equipment. Today, 95% of FAVBET Foundation’s projects are focused on helping the country’s citizens and the army, i. e. evacuating residents of frontline cities, purchasing ambulances and vehicles for the needs of the Armed Forces, as well as supplying high-tech communications equipment and drones.

Belatra Introduces Big Bang 2, Igniting the Gaming Universe

Published

belatra-introduces-big-bang-2,-igniting-the-gaming-universe

Belatra, a prominent creator of inventive online slots, has turned its focus to the universe with its dynamic new slot, Big Bang 2.

Originating from the endless abyss, Big Bang 2 showcases a unique cascading system placed on an 8×8 grid. A successful combination is created when five or more matching celestial bodies align either horizontally or vertically, with every win causing a series of explosions and new symbols falling into position. Captivating imagery and a cutting-edge score enhance this celestial display.

The Black Hole is located at the center of the game and serves as a Wild symbol. It contains its own multiplier in the main game, rising by one every time it helps form a winning combination. When several Black Holes contribute to a win, their multipliers are summed and applied to the overall payout.

True Giants measuring between 2×2 and 5×5 can show up on the grid at any moment. Every one comes with a multiplier that matches its width. The larger the planet, the greater the reward. The Planet Rain ability can activate unexpectedly and changes an ordinary round into a significant occurrence by providing an immediate increase to all winning groups.

In every round, a Coin Spawn Zone triggers at three random locations. Planet detonations in this area emit Cosmic Coins worth between 1 and 100, which are consumed by the Black Hole that has the greatest multiplier on the field.

Landing three or more Black Holes on the grid activates five Free Games. Black Holes remain established until the bonus concludes, increasing in power with every cascade. The Coin Spawn Zone starts with four positions and increases by one cell after each spin, enhancing the opportunities for larger victories.

Hot Mode activates when three Black Holes land alongside a “+1” symbol. This mode has six high-intensity games with an expanding Coin Spawn Zone. Players can also choose to jump straight into the action by purchasing either the standard Bonus Games or the high-intensity Hot Mode. Whichever option they choose, the win potential in these modes is immense, reaching up to 10,000x the initial bet.

Misha Voinich, Head of Business Development at Belatra, said: “Big Bang 2 takes players on an unforgettable mission through deep space packed with rewarding mechanics, from merging Black Holes to expanding Coin Spawn Zones and win potential reaching 10,000x. This game is crafted for players who appreciate style, aesthetics, and the thrill of epic discoveries in the infinite expanse of gaming.”
