Topdog is targeting the gap between live sports windows, where fans want ongoing engagement, and conventional skill games that are solo or asynchronous, using live 1v1 and tournament play with matchmaking, payments and fraud detection. Its $2.5 million seed round, which brought total capital raised to $4.1 million, funds user acquisition and more sports games as the company bets that synchronous peer competition can create a new real-money gaming category.
