Strafe Esports Reviews

by NaxthorTM

I’ve used StrafeEsports for a long time it is the best to know when who’s playing what or to check scores and see if you gambled right on who will win. The addition to gear makes sense you get more stuff and opens them up to another revenue but it is annoying. The pop ups and hey you have a chest now open it and just in your face. I get why they are adding this to keep StrafeEsports going and to pay people in the company but it’s just frustrating to see an app I love go down this path.

So I follow rocket league esports, which is one of the I believe 5 or 6 esports StrafeEsports contains. So it was time for the South American regional playoffs and it was True Neutral Vs Most Wanted. And I didn't even get to make my prediction despite a 45 minute delay because they were "calculating odds." So it took them 45 minutes to calculate how many points people were given based on their prediction. And I'm not the only person who didn't get to vote, literally nobody did. Aswell as the fact is StrafeEsports is always behind like I was watching True Neutral vs Poison Bullets, and the series was over 4-3 (True Neutral had won) and they still had the series at like 3-2. That was a good 15 minutes ago. It's just they always have a delay on everything and it irritates me that nobody could get their prediction in despite a 45 minute delay

I have the notifications turned on in my settings, but I never get notifications for the beginning of matches, and anytime I look at the in app settings for the notifications, it tells me that I have to enable notifications in my phone settings. Which I have already done. I got StrafeEsports to remind me when games were, but I’ve missed two entire majors because I didn’t know they were starting. Something needs to be fixed because it defeats the entire purpose of StrafeEsports when I don't get any notifications.

It was 100% the best app, everything is straight forward you can vote on who you think is going to win and even see upcoming tournaments, everything was beyond solid. That is until they added crates and “gear”. you can unlock items to help you vote to earn points and they send out daily quests for you to do. It went from my go to place for esport scores, but now it is basically turning into a mobile game with options to buy gear.
Super disappointed and I hope they revert back.

The first UX change is I should be able to look at every game individually, or all my games in one list. If I want to see OWL matches for the day, I should have a filter that only shows Overwatch (and this needs to be separate from the "tournaments" tab).

Second thing is give me a night mode. You're burning my eyes.

I don't know that this would be popular opinion, but the matches take up a lot of screen space. Reducing font size/spacing or giving an option to do that would be great.

All in all, good app. I wouldn't say it's better than Score, but it is useful for Overwatch specifically. And please, night mode

This is an awesome app for schedules and pretty good for the betting side but I was just looking at the matchups for OWL and I found out that they are putting Vancouver titans way above Houston and above philly which doesn’t make sense because since they dropped their entire team. And as of last week Vancouver is basically a contenders team that got rolled by Washington and Florida which are two of the lowest teams at the moment and they are saying that Philadelphia which is 1st in the league is going to win that matchup. Ok sure. I’m not trying to say that this is a bad app in any meaningful way it’s actually great I’ve recommended it to multiple friends that watch esports but those odds are way out of wack.

StrafeEsports is great for letting you know what is coming up and the results of recent games but there is one huge flaw. They label the times the games will be played as the time where the game is being played, not the time for the time zone you are watching in. Its frustrating when there is a game i want to watch at 1:30am and it come in at 5:30 pm my time, especially when i dont even know what country the tournament is located in because then i cant even look up the time difference. Planning on watching games in the future is a total crap shoot :(

Strafe is super simple and easy to use and I would recommend it to anyone interested in esports. However the rankings (at least for csgo) are inaccurate and I wish they were the same as HLTV. Also the new font is awful, just plain bad the old one was fine and really good.

TLDR: Pretty good

I just got StrafeEsports and already love it. The only problem I have is that when I go to check scores for match on my watch it says I need to follow a team or player. I already follow 4 different orgs and almost every player of each org. I tried redownloading but no luck. Besides that small thing have to say this is a must have for any esports fan.

This is actually a really cool way to keep up with matches and stuff. I’m new to watching competitive gaming like this, but having Strafe has made me feel a lot less lost! Plus, it’s a fun way to learn all about the teams, players, and sport in general! I would like to see a little more...

That being said, I could see StrafeEsports becoming one that I uninstall when finals aren’t taking place, and reinstall when they’re upcoming.. I would like to see something else in StrafeEsports I guess? Like, I LOVE the profiles for teams and players.. Maybe they (teams and/or players) could have a feed where they can post to or something? Idk, just throwing it out there. Thanks for the awesome app!

You guys really did a nice job to create such a nice, clean and comfortably-using app. I can easily track Dota2 tournaments and StrafeEsports will automatically remind me based on my favorite teams and players. The results of games are also updated in time.

by Astrosadico

Not complicated at all, you can even set it up so you can get notified when your favorite teams are playing.

The points system is really cool, more matches you get right, more points you get and is really cool.

I use it to follow CS:GO but it is simply amazing for everything esports. Constantly being updated & improved with new features on a regular basis. I cant believe how far it has come just in the few months I have been using it!

Its just so NEAT. The UI is so modern and well built it just makes me want to use StrafeEsports just because of how great the ui is. It has more stats than I could ever need from current and past events. Coming from TheScore this was so refreshing

Best esports companion app. Very intuitive interface allows to sort out all the necessary information. Features to see head-to-head matchups and detailed historical data especially make it stand out.

by EchoLionz

Really like StrafeEsports has most of the esports I follow. COD League, CSGO, and Valorant. Two issues I have with StrafeEsports is nothing for Halo Infinite and no way to filter regions and filter certain tournaments. Without my own complaints still an easy and smooth app to use. Gives you everything you need like the stream link, highlights, stats, bracket, head to head stats.

by Anthony Melillo

The UI and design of StrafeEsports are the best! Smartly made, easy to use, honestly my app of choice as an esports fan. My only minor complaint is that Call of Duty isn’t supported as one of the leagues. The developers have said this will be corrected soon and I’m sure it will be, but as a fan of the CWL I can’t wait to follow my favorite CoD team on StrafeEsports. Other than that, I love StrafeEsports. It’s a must download if you’re a big esports fan.

by Around3mangos

It’s a great app that I love and I was pretty surprised at the design of it, very sleek looking in all and functions perfectly. Only thing I’d recommend seeing change is the snapping thing that happens when you’re looking at a match, and you scroll down, then sometimes you just want to scroll up just a little bit but instead it snaps to the diamond scoreboard. I’d recommend getting rid of the snapping feature altogether. Other than that it’s a really great app and solid in every aspect, I’m just being a little bit picky

StrafeEsports is actually amazing. It's so clean and easy to navigate. I can tap any player, team or event and it will give me all the information I could ask for. It just needs one improvement. Say for example a notification comes up and says live in 15 minutes g2 vs c9. That's awesome, I love that. But I don't know what game they're playing! Both of those names have a rocket league team, csgo team and several others, but I don't know which one it is. It does say the event (dreamhack, rlcs etc) but I wish I would say "rocket league live in 15 minutes" with the teams. Otherwise it's amazing

by Scott Bucher

I haven’t used many esports apps, and to be fair, when it comes to esports, I always felt it was a tedious task to keep try of all the events, games, and tournaments my favorite teams/players are competing in.

Strafe changes esports as a whole for me. It is clean, simple, shows detailed information, and overall works perfectly.

If you love to watch esports, this is a must use app.

Back before last season of the Cod World League I sent an email asking if Cod would ever get integrated in StrafeEsports . I got reasons why it wouldn't be trivial (as if hinted it was in the first place) but was reassured Cod support would be added. Well here we are over a year later with the CDL set to start this weekend and there's zero Cod support in sight. Pretty frustrating.
