E-sports: It was a dream to be a professional gamer

25th July 2022, Monday

It is very difficult to find people in the world who have not played video games on PC or mobile. Earlier gaming was just a matter of entertainment but now it has reached another level. At present, there are some gaming organizations that take participants from different countries and give different competitions due to the increase in the promotion or popularity of their games. In connection with those gaming competitions, the winning teams of different countries have received prizes up to million usd. These gamers and all things related to gaming are called E-sports.

PUBG, clash of clans, Call of Duty, Fifa world cup, dreamhack, Pokemon world championship are also many other gaming competitions. Currently, the market cap of E-Sports around the world is about 2008 billion USD!

The market cap which was only $500 billion USD in 2021 has almost tripled in 2022. Where every year about half a hundred gaming organizations are running different types of competitions in which people from different countries participate and win less than 2-3 million usd as a prize from each competition.

Now you may think, playing games is very easy and if playing games can easily eliminate unemployment then why people are afraid to choose games as employment?

Basically no one plays games hoping to earn money. Rather, gaming is a means of entertainment for every person or teenager. When the teenager or individual takes the game from hobby to professional level, he can earn money by joining various competitions if he wishes. But today's games that are being added to the competition have to be played very intelligently with different strategies. It is possible to win these competitions only by using the right present intelligence and strategy. But to master these strategies and skills you need to have love for gaming and willingness to learn.

I am a gamer since childhood. My family didn't have any mobile, whenever a guest came home I used to take his mobile and download games from various websites and play for some time. But the amount of time I spent playing gave me a great feeling that comes with having a love for gaming.

Later own device for playing games. In other words, about 1/10 of my life has been spent playing games. But could never take the place of a professional gamer. The main reason behind not becoming a professional gamer is playing too many games at once. You can never be too good at any one task when you participate in many different tasks together. In other words, it is not possible to become an all-rounder but to become a professional.

Studying, indoor gaming, outdoor gaming, facebook, youtube all when concentrated together, basically time is spent not being good at anything.
