Theta Labs, the leading provider of decentralized cloud infrastructure for AI, media, and entertainment, is excited to announce that FlyQuest, the world-renowned and reigning North American League of Legends Champions, will integrate Theta EdgeCloud to power the first interactive AI chatbot and digital mascot named a.PHiD to elevate digital fan experiences on flyquest.gg and their Discord.

The eco-friendly, cheerful a.PHiD chatbot, FlyQuest's mascot, will utilize AI to answer fan inquiries 24/7 about the team's roster, upcoming matches, player statistics, merchandise, and other curated team news. Additionally, a.PHiD will possess extensive knowledge about League of Legends, esports, and gaming, providing fans with a comprehensive information resource.

"This collaboration will revolutionize the fan experience on our website and in our Discord server, allowing us to offer unprecedented levels of fan engagement never before seen in League of Legends" said Brian Anderson, CEO of FlyQuest. "We are thrilled to partner with Theta Labs and leverage their advanced EdgeCloud AI technology to bring our fans closer to the action, both in one-on-one interactions and unique one-to-many experiences."

Fans can interact with a.PHiD by asking questions like "When’s FlyQuest's next match?" or "How does the new League of the Americas (LTA) playoff system work?" receiving comprehensive answers using the most up-to-date information available. The chatbot will also utilize the Riot API to provide dynamic League of Legends match data, ensuring fans have access to real-time information.

 

 

"Integrating Theta EdgeCloud custom-built RAG-powered chatbot tailored for esports news and information, into flyquest.gg and Discord will enable a completely new type of fan experience that is highly responsive, engaging and entertaining," said Mitch Liu, CEO and co-founder of Theta Labs. "Immersive experiences for entertainment and fan engagement are two of the most powerful narratives for generative AI, and it's exciting to be working with one of the most successful North America League teams. We look forward to bringing this technology to the esports community for the first time and expanding across this $4 billion industry."

“I'm always about keeping the fans updated: without the community, none of this would be possible. This seems like a great way to make sure FlyQuest fans stay connected and in the loop.” -Massu, FlyQuest Professional League of Legends Player

The first-of-its-kind large language model AI chatbot will serve as an educational and entertaining resource for fans, offering real-time updates on team activities, match recaps, and off-season developments. Powered by Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) technology, a.PHiD will draw from a vast database of esports statistics, FlyQuest-specific information, and League of Legends trivia to provide more accurate and tailored responses.

The engine behind it, the blockchain-based Theta EdgeCloud, is the first hybrid cloud-edge computing AI platform, powered by the Theta Edge Network with over 30,000 distributed edge nodes, and cloud partners including Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services offering over 80 PetaFLOPS of always available distributed GPU compute power. Theta Labs will also be featured prominently during FlyQuest's livestreams and official content.
