How to become a millionaire by playing electronic games

[Love Pulse]

The numbers of the eSports awards are staggering.More than $ 33 million has been earmarked as prizes for a future eSports competition, with competitors from around the world competing to win, many of whom are still in their teens.

These contestants live under great pressure, knowing that millions of viewers around the world are watching every step they take.

The world of e-sports is not without its critics, including Prince Harry, who called it "more addictive than drugs".

For talented young players, however, it is an opportunity to set off in an industry worth nearly $ 1 billion.

Kyle Gersdorf, better known as Boga, became a millionaire last month. He is still a high school student at the age of 16 and lives in a small town in Pennsylvania.
In July, Kyle broke the record and won the Fortnite World Cup, a record $ 30 million in online gaming history. The prize for the first place was $ 3 million, the highest prize for individual competition awarded in online sports.

These numbers look stunning, but these harsh numbers will be surpassed this week. The TI awards for the Dota 2 tournament in Shanghai from 20-25 August have already surpassed the overall. Fortnite awards at the time of writing, reaching more than $ 33 million.

However, earning this money will not be easy.

"Unparalleled testing"
Anucha Jiraong, also known as Gubbs, a 20-year-old professional from Bangkok, and his team, Vantec, are among the few who are now training for the world championship.

Gubbs told the BBC that he had been playing electronic games since he was 13. Even when his game was a hobby, he played for about seven hours on weekdays and days at school, and on weekends he played for 13 hours.

Now that he is a professional, his agenda has become more intense and busy.

"We usually wake up around 10:00 am, and after having a shower and lunch we start with the team at 10:30, followed by three training games against other teams and then we have an intense discussion," Gubbs explains his daily routine.
"We usually have dinner at 6 pm and have sandwiches between training sessions and final discussion at around 10 pm, and then I play some mass-rated games to further refine my skills until 1 am after midnight."

Damien Chowk, a 26-year-old Australian player whose name is used in Dota 2, is Kabby, who has a similar agenda to Gubbs.

Chuck told the BBC that his teammates were training together for about eight hours, after which he would go on to play other hours on his own.

Jack Chen, who runs a team this year, says this is not unusual. Most of the contenders "often play 8 to 16 hours a day."

"We will compete for the biggest e-sports award at the top event in the sport."

"This is an event that determines who the Dutta players are, their skills and their career in the game, enters them into the hearts and minds of fans forever, and experiences them like no other before the best players in the world."
