In this episode, we break down why modern mobile UA is no longer won by great ideas, but by systems that can ship hundreds or thousands of creatives every month. With real data, real examples, and hard truths, this is a deep dive into the creative arms race dominating mobile games.
What you’ll learn
• Why creative velocity beats creative talent
• Why “new creatives in last 30 days” predicts scale
• How games produce 23,000 creatives per month
• How Meta allocates traffic to new uploads
• Why testing frameworks break at scale
• Why CEOs underinvest in creative production
• How one hit creative can change everything
• Why UA financing matters more than ever
Key takeaway
If you can’t ship fast, you can’t win, no matter how good your ideas are.
