About Us

Two Brothers.
One Passion.

Qelvor eSports was built by Manik and Pawan — two brothers, friends, gamers, and now business partners who have known each other since they were two years old. This is why we started, and what we are building.

Where It Started

Two Brothers. One Passion. A Bigger Mission.

Gaming has been a part of our lives for as long as we can remember. We grew up playing together, talking about games whenever we met, and imagining what it would be like to build a future around something we genuinely loved.

But as the years passed, reality caught up.

Family expectations, career pressure, financial limitations, and the lack of real opportunities slowly pushed us away from the games we loved. We eventually stepped away from gaming too.

But the passion never really disappeared.

That became the reason we decided to build something of our own.

What We See

The Problem We See

We believe esports has enormous talent, but access to opportunity is still limited. Too many tournaments are built primarily around professional or highly experienced players, while regular and emerging players often struggle to find meaningful opportunities.

🎮

Limited Access

Competitive tournaments remain out of reach for regular players who have not already made a name for themselves.

⚠️

Inconsistent Experience

Poor and inconsistent player experiences turn what should be competition into frustration.

🔐

Hard To Trust

Players struggle to find tournaments they can genuinely trust with their time and their entry fee.

🌱

Talent Overlooked

Talented players get passed over simply because they are not professionals yet.

💔

Players Walking Away

Players leave gaming behind despite having real, provable potential.

💰

Pressure From Outside

Financial and family pressures force talented players to abandon the passion they built for years.

🧩

No Proper Ecosystem

There is no proper, accessible esports ecosystem holding all of this together.

Talent exists everywhere,
but opportunity doesn't.

And perhaps that is the biggest problem of all.

Our Belief

What We Think

We believe every talent deserves a chance.

✕ Not only professional players.
✕ Not only players with expensive setups.
✕ Not only players who already have a name.
✓ Every player who is willing to compete and improve.
A player who is just beginning today could become tomorrow's professional.

We don't want talent to disappear simply because someone didn't get the opportunity, support, or platform at the right time.

Our vision is to build an esports environment where players can participate, compete, improve, earn recognition, and continue pursuing their passion.

We don't want talent to be killed by circumstances. We want to give it a reason to keep going.

Why It's Personal

How It Impacts Us

This isn't a problem we discovered from a distance. We experienced it ourselves.

Manik and Pawan were once gaming freaks. We were always playing games, discussing games, and spending time together around gaming. We always wanted to build a career around something we loved.

But as we grew older, family pressure, career expectations, and financial realities made it harder to continue. We eventually stepped away from gaming.

Not because we stopped loving it. But because the circumstances around us made it difficult to pursue.

That experience stayed with us. We kept thinking about the players who might be going through the same thing. Players with genuine skills. Players who could become something. Players who simply needed an opportunity.

And we asked ourselves one question.

What if we could build the opportunity we once needed?

That question became the beginning of Qelvor.

Our Answer

How We Solve It

We started with one simple idea: make esports more accessible.

₹20

Where Entry Begins

Qelvor eSports began building tournaments starting from just ₹20, designed to give players an accessible entry point and a strong reward-to-kill ratio. But tournaments are only one part of what we're building.

🎯

More Opportunities

Players don't have to already be professionals to participate. We want emerging talent to have a place to compete and prove themselves.

🏆

Skill-Based Recognition

Winning isn't the only way to demonstrate value. Players who put in the effort and show skill can also receive recognition and rewards based on their performance.

💰

Performance-Based Rewards

We aim to provide regular payouts based on player performance, creating more ways for players to benefit from their skills.

🧾

Transparent Transactions

From registration onward, we focus on providing clear information. After registration, players receive invoices before tournaments, helping create a more transparent experience.

🤝

A Better Player Experience

We're building our platform around the players. From registration to competition to rewards, our goal is to make the entire experience smoother, clearer, and more satisfying.

🌏

And This Is Only The Beginning

Our bigger goal is to contribute toward building a new, accessible Indian esports ecosystem, where talent can find opportunity instead of being forced to disappear.

The Timeline

Our Journey

From an idea two brothers kept talking about, to a registered esports organization — here is how Qelvor got here.

The Beginning

An Idea That Wouldn't Go Away

The idea of building something in esports was pushed forward by Manik, who had already been working toward creating something in esports from the age of 15.

But ideas don't always move forward alone. Whenever Manik felt demotivated, Pawan was there to push him forward. For years, the two of us kept discussing games, ideas, possibilities, and what we could build together.

The Wait

One Thing We Had To Wait For: 18

We knew we wanted to create something of our own. We decided that once both of us were legally old enough to build our own company, we would stop waiting and start building.

And as soon as we were both 18+, we did exactly that.

10 July 2026

Apex Giants eSports

On 10 July 2026, we officially started our esports journey under the name Apex Giants eSports. We started small. Very small. Our first tournaments were hosted locally among our own circle of friends and players.

But those early tournaments taught us something important: players wanted opportunities, and they wanted an experience they could trust.

80+ local tournaments hosted
August 2026

From Apex Giants To Qelvor

As our vision grew, we realized that what we were building needed an identity that could grow far beyond where we started. In August 2026, Apex Giants eSports was rebranded as Qelvor eSports.

Qelvor represents the next chapter of our journey.

Today

Still Building

We're still young. We're still learning. We're still building. But we know exactly why we started.

The Founders

From Two Small Brothers To Business Partners

We started as two little brothers who played games together. We grew up in the same school. We spent years talking about games. We shared the same passion.

M

Manik

Co-Founder

Has been working toward building something in esports since the age of 15. The one who pushed the idea forward and kept it moving, long before there was a company to put a name on.

P

Pawan

Co-Founder

The reason the idea never stalled. Whenever motivation ran low, Pawan was the one pushing it forward again — through years of conversations about games, ideas, and what the two of us could build.

Then we became friends, teammates, dreamers, and eventually business partners.

Today, we're still just 18 years old. But we aren't waiting for the perfect moment anymore. We're building while we're young. We're learning while we're building. And we're creating the ecosystem we once wished existed for us.

This is Qelvor eSports.
Built by two brothers. Driven by one passion.
Created for every talent.
Our Mission

Give Talent An Opportunity Before Circumstances Take It Away

If you have the skill, we want you in the bracket — not on the sidelines. Entry starts at ₹20, and the next tournament list is always live.
