THE VIFER STORY

From gaming as a kid to competing in the UAE — this is how ViFer Gaming came to be.

IT STARTED WITH A KID WHO JUST LOVED TO PLAY.

Long before ViFer Gaming, Levi was already a gamer.

His gaming journey started as a kid, spending time at computer shops playing Ragnarok and Dota. From PC gaming, his interests eventually expanded into different games and platforms — including Ragnarok Online, Ni no Kuni and Mobile Legends.

Through the years, the games changed, but the passion for gaming stayed.

FROM GAMING TO THE HOBBY

In 2016, Levi discovered Pokémon through Pokémon GO, starting his connection with the Pokémon world.

Years later, in August 2025, he picked up Beyblade X as a new hobby. What started as something fun to try quickly became a competitive pursuit, eventually leading to his journey as a Blader King in the UAE.

Then, during our trip to Japan in January 2026, he started his Pokémon TCG journey. What began as a new experience quickly became a passion for learning the game, building decks and competing.

Today, Pokémon TCG and Beyblade X have become a big part of his gaming journey — both as hobbies and as competitive pursuits.

FROM PLAYER TO JUDGE

Levi’s involvement in the hobby has grown beyond competing.

Alongside playing Pokémon TCG and Beyblade X competitively, he also supports the community as a judge.

He is a certified Pokémon TCG Judge and also judges Beyblade X events in the UAE, helping officiate tournaments and create a fair and enjoyable experience for players.

From competing at the table to helping others enjoy the games, judging has become another part of his journey in the hobby.

WHY “VIFER”?

Fun fact: “ViFer” comes from the names LeVI and JenniFER.

What started as a simple combination of our names eventually became the identity behind Levi’s gaming journey, ViFer Gaming.

MORE THAN A SHOP

ViFer Gaming was created from a genuine love for gaming and the hobbies that come with it.
