Slotsjudge and Onlyplay get together not only to discuss the latest gambling trends and the provider’s products but also to cook the traditional Ukrainian Borsch during the video interview. Krista Iljina, Slotsjudge streamer and game expert, interviews Alena Tsuranova, Head of Sales at Onlyplay, and learns more about the traditional Ukrainian dish which inspired Onlyplay to release the Lucky Borsch slot and combine cultural heritage with game development.

The Unique Collaboration

Slotsjudge experts decided to make the next video interview more creative to fully delve into the plots used by Onlyplay for its software development. The format of this interview is very different and creative since instead of a regular online call, Krista and Alena got together to learn more about cooking the traditional Ukrainian Borsch and discuss why this dish inspired the Onlyplay team to develop the Lucky Borsch slot.

Main Discussion Points

Since Krista and Alena were cooking during the entire interview, they had enough time to learn more about the importance of this dish for Ukrainians, including those working at Onlyplay. Alena told more about the right way of making borsch, its origin, and recipe variations.

Moreover, she covered the unique features and mechanics that make the Lucky Borsch slot so outpacing, including the combination of soup plates launching the bonus game and the Borsch Collect Symbol.

Alena is sure that the game’s design is vibrant to influence players’ emotions and convey the feeling of warmth and comfort associated with Borscht in Ukrainian culture.

The Significance of This Collaboration

Such collaborations bring affiliate interviews to a very new level. This approach allows Slotsjudge experts to better understand providers and their products and deliver this information to players, keeping them engaged even more.

This interview format is unique and ultimate since no other affiliate in the world has been cooking Ukrainian borsch with a provider while discussing the brand’s features and further plans. This creates an entirely new kind of entertainment, bringing more attention from players, partners, and everyone else involved in the iGaming industry.

In the future, the Slotsjudge team is looking forward to having more creative and innovative collaborations like this.

Jekaterina Dubnicka, Marketing and Communications Manager at Slotsjudge, said about this: ‘This collaboration is revolutionising the iGaming industry. We are setting a new standard in collaborations between affiliates and game providers.’

Alena Tsuranova, Head of Sales at Onlyplay, added: It was truly an unusual and unique experience for the Onlyplay team. We can proudly say that our slot game, Lucky Borsch, is the most appetizing game on the market. For those who have never tried borsch, the number one dish in Ukrainian cuisine, this is an opportunity to get acquainted with its diverse ingredients while playing. And for those who already know how rich the taste and aroma of Ukrainian borsch are, the game inspires you to head to the kitchen and cook a big pot for family and friends. That’s exactly what we joyfully did together with Slotsjudge!”

Esports Charts, the leading esports viewership analytics provider, has partnered with StarLadder, a pioneering tournament organiser. The Budapest Major 2025 marks a highly anticipated comeback for StarLadder, as it is their first Counter-Strike Major since 2019 and a significant return to the top-tier esports arena.

As the official analytics partner of the StarLadder Budapest Major 2025, Esports Charts will provide comprehensive, real-time audience data and insights throughout the event. This will empower organisers, teams, sponsors and fans with unparalleled transparency and a deeper understanding of the tournament’s global reach.

Artyom Odintsov, Co-founder and CEO of Esports Charts, said: “We are thrilled and proud to provide viewership analytics for StarLadder for the Budapest Major 2025. Since both Esports Charts and StarLadder are Ukraine-born companies, we share similar values and deal with similar challenges, which brings us even closer.

“It’s genuinely exciting to follow how viewership will develop at this Major. But knowing the expertise, drive, and passion that the organizers are bringing, I have no doubt we’ll witness some incredible things happen in Budapest.

“Esports Charts has always been driven by a mission to provide the esports community with accurate, actionable data, and we look forward to showcasing the impact and audience engagement of this world-class event.”

StarLadder has been a driving force in global esports for almost 15 years now, since hosting its first tournaments in 2011. Renowned for its innovation and reliability, the company has organised some of the industry’s most iconic events. These include the StarLadder Berlin Major 2019, which accumulated over 44 million hours watched and remains in the top 10 CS events by this metric, and the legendary StarSeries tournaments which started back in 2012.

Viacheslav Shcherbakov, Sales and Partnerships at StarLadder, said: “We’ve been working with Esports Charts since their founding and have always valued their professionalism and integrity. In a market where reliable data is essential, Esports Charts provides honest, transparent numbers, exactly the kind of insights sponsors and stakeholders rely on when assessing the potential reach of a World Championship event.

“We’re confident that this partnership will result in a high-quality analysis of our tournament’s performance and the audience data we’ll report to our partners. It’s a collaboration built on trust, shared values, and a deep understanding of what it takes to elevate esports to the next level.”

The Starladder Budapest Major 2025 will be held from November 24 to December 14 in Budapest, Hungary. The event will bring together the world’s top 32 Counter-Strike 2 teams to compete for a $1.25 million prize pool and one of the most prestigious titles in esports.
