I think if one sport were very popular, it would attract more money to come inside them and of course, that will attract more advertiser to come too, and that means, they will make a lot of money. And that will make the prize will increase too so they can give the money to the winners. Besides the player, I think they will attract more new people to take a look at the sports, and I think they will interest to join with them too.

I totally wouldn't be surprised if esports becomes more popular than regular sports one day. If we're talking audience participation its already bigger then regular sports. Thats how the prize pool is so large because the cosmetic items in the game are going towards that prize pool, its seen as raising the games profile and also encouraging more sales overall so its heavily promoted by the developers themselves. I've been bullish on esports for at least five years. Some games are better suited then others and ideally there should be a line of cosmetic items. Its not that massively different to real sports, where they often are wanting to start players young from the grassroots and end up on the national team at their best when adults. Theres some similarity there I think

In my country, the most famous sport is soccer / football, yet I never get myself to like it. I find eSports on the other hand more entertaining and interesting. There's also a lot of variety!
all of us have a different favorites . some will like soccer and the other one likes tennis . in my country basketball is the famous sports here but like you im no also interested with it because im into gaming . @op , good for you that you already know on why esports have alot of prize pools . i bet your happy now but most of us will feel sad thinking that esports players can easily become a millionaire but us that are working hard are still poor . sad ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif)

Unlike ordinary gamers, they have a bootcamp where they practice for many hours a day. They study all the possibilities of that game and how to counter it. They are also going through a lot like what athletes do. I think the difference is most esport players have really the passion for games, compared to some athletes they do it mostly because it can be a big help on their future.

According to this article, they freaking earn a lot. Especially if they win tournaments, etc. With your article, it does make sense why the developers start their matches and putting in the prize pool because of the attraction it could get. I remember the time when I was still in college that Dota 2 was my thing and I played a lot, and then I remember the Filipino Team who made it to The International and they won a consolation prize that is worth millions. They started to get famous and just became rich in gaming. It is possible, but you need to train a lot and play a lot. Most of it would make your butt hurt for sure.

And only which is best can be pick up as athlete.

Yes, they really is capable to offer that price to all players whose interested to bet online using eSports and the reason really provide interest for everybody. This involved a lot of sports whom everyone can participate, they could prefer to choose where to bet at their favorite sports like Basketball, Tennis, soccer and many more. The game event is held live and participants of the gambling can use their funds instantly without any hassle, because the live betting results is done realtime.

The amount of hours required to be good is far past a normal job, of this we can be sure and in some instances its taken to the extreme and could be 80 hours a week. Being an entertainment type game, its beyond just normal practise even training within a sport. These people can be training, playing, up until the early hours of every morning trying to squeeze in more practise.
Its also a really harsh existence as the career participation may be as little as five years before competitiveness at the top level is lost. Some might say its great pay but also it requires absolute success in order to say that and when its a team sport, you are in the hands of others who may or may not take it as seriously as you.

I figured it had a lot to do with the Skins and outfits from In-Game purchases. But that is crazy Epic Games is going to fund $100,000,000 towards fortnite Competitions this next year....
Also as far as Esports gaming becoming one of the largest and most viewed sports out there that is very possible. 30 years ago kids did not sit at home and stream fortnite. Now days anyone can do it. As video games upgrade and get more futuristic I think It may very well be a #1 in the gambling industry as well!!!
It will be, in fact there are a lot of companies, big companies that invest in this. A legend player is said to already invested his money in an esports team, I am so amazed reading that. I think more and more people will be going and be doing this kind of job in the future. While the internet is with us, people will make money for it. From content creators to professional gamers.

The similarities are that they practice a lot yet the difference is that the other one is on the field shedding blood and sweat just to attain the level of mastery that they need. Unless from people who are just facing a computer while taking it all easy without putting a lot of effort to sweat. Although the stress level of both esports and real sports are almost the same when it comes to teamwork.

I know it already but the crowdfunding part is the thing that I don't know to be honest. That is why eSport games like Dota 2, LOL, Mobile Legends wants you to use your money to buy some amazing items on the game.
I have played some eSports games already and the players spend more than 8 hours playing just to be a pro player. Yes the money they got is way higher compare to a regular employee but the time they spend is longer. Overall, it is worth it because you can be popular around the world and at the same time get a huge salary.

Not just the salaries, but the sponsors are also great. Some of the known players in a streaming site are Shroud, Ninja, DrDisrespect, they have sponsors and merchs that make them more money. Pewdiepie also is a gamer, a content creator with a huge number of the fanbase and huge profit out of merchs and sponsor deals. Those parents that say you will achieve nothing out of these games, well, how about now? Right?

I think you would have passion with the game if you are really good at it, I think that's pretty standard for them. I think Gaming Chairs should be bought if you really want a comfortable experience with your gaming. $399 USD for a great gaming chair would be nice if you would really use it a lot. I got mine around $100, and I think it's okay for a casual gamer like me.

I'm pretty sure it takes more than 8 hours to be a pro player man! It's more like players are honing their skills from since they were kids in order to reach a pro level.

Players do have that place or headquarters where they do used to play and they are really being compensated with that excluding some sponsorship with some companies thats why they can last that long on gaming hours.Training and becoming pro's yet management of that team does basically know that it can pay-up possibly to win on tournaments.So in shorts its still a business but success would vary or depend on the player/team itself.

This is a little bit out topic in line on whats being asked but i would join up the conversation about chairs and gaming salary.
It has been but still, it's connected to the gamers and their unique lifestyle. Players do have that place or headquarters where they do used to play and they are really being compensated with that excluding some sponsorship
with some companies thats why they can last that long on gaming hours.Training and becoming pro's yet management of that team does basically know
I think it's not because of the house or the comfortable chair or what not, but it's because they need to. It's their job, and they do need to practice every time. It's not just that, the streaming service they could give has already a lot of money to consider that it can pay-up possibly to win on tournaments.So in shorts its still a business but success would vary or depend on the player/team itself.
Maybe they have bonuses, especially if they have a large amount of prize to their team and management. It's nice to think about how their lifestyle, I don't know how hard it is.

I'm pretty sure it takes more than 8 hours to be a pro player man! It's more like players are honing their skills from since they were kids in order to reach a pro level. I saw.a video of esports team that they practice for almost 12hrs a day learning the different strategies to win. That is a lot of time to spend and could get boring sometimes because all they just do is play. They don't play just because for the money prize but they have dedication to what they've been doing.

How exactly is your statement true? The richest esports players are Sumail and Saahil. Both are Dota2 players and they got enough money in tourneys because of steam and dota2's micro-economy. But even their combined earnings are lower than $6.5million that is literally nothing compared to what any average regular sports icon gets paid on a yearly basis.

This is pretty big news, Liquid just won a big prize pool run by Intel for about a decade now. Thats some major sponsorship and over such a long time, such major backing is a large part why esports is possible : ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FlfZYIZH.png&t=665&c=oe-W6DUhn-FvJA) I know Shaq owns a share of an esports team, not certain about others but theres a few big players in the industry for sports who are also willing to back the growth of esports audiences as well
