In Ukraine, esports was recognized as an official sport only last year. However, it is rapidly gaining popularity. Various esports competitions and leagues with many participants are held throughout the year. Therefore, there are many young talents among novice e-sportsmen.
Esports betting sites are becoming more and more popular. One of the betting platforms recently conducted new research. It turned out that a person has a better chance of becoming a professional esports player than of achieving success as an athlete.
How do you make money in esports and be successful in this area? It's easy if the team has a lot of sponsors and prize funds. And if this is not the case?
Building an esports career from scratch and without sponsors is quite difficult. No university or college can teach you this. Gamingpost.net has prepared some tips to help you improve your playing skills and prove yourself in the qualifiers.
Play different games
There are many games to play and try. There is no other way to find a game in which the player will feel like a fish in water and earn money in the future. Therefore, you should devote enough time to each game to get a feel for it. Some of the most popular games are the Tekken series, Dota2, CS: GO, FIFA Football, and Mortal Kombat.
Decide on a playground
If you are a beginner, you should choose one gaming platform first. The most common ones include Xbox, PC and Wii U. Some esports players use a mouse and keyboard, while others use controllers. Choose the option that suits you best.
Define genre
The player who has tried everything will be able to determine the genre suitable for himself. How? If you are attracted to the game, or you stick to a certain style, this is your genre. To begin with, you should develop your skills in only one genre of games. For example, if you enjoy controlling many of the characters in the game, you will probably become a fan of the strategy or war genres.
Streaming
Just a few years ago, all professional esports players competed for participation in tournaments. But these days you can broadcast your stream and make money from it. If you don't want to leave your home and participate in tournaments, you can try making money by entertaining your audience on streams. However, participating in tournaments can be more profitable.
Learning the technique and tactics of the game
Mastering new skills require hard work in esports. On the internet, you can find reviews from professional gamers about the tactics they use to succeed in games. Watch YouTube video tutorials and hone your skills every day as you revisit new techniques and strategies. Knowledge comes from information and practice. So the more a gamer trains, the higher his success will be.
Communication with other players
To become a professional esports player, you need to connect with like-minded people. You will learn from their mistakes. Also, other players will share their experiences in esports and give good advice. Most of the professional players are very friendly. Remain calm and positive about criticism for your future professional growth.
Practice makes perfect
If you want to become a pro in esports, you need to practice a lot. Most professionals train 7 to 11 hours a day. To be successful, you need to stick to a workout schedule. You can try to test yourself and play with stronger players.
Watch live streams
Professional gamers' streams are a great source of knowledge. Get in the habit of watching them every day. Find the freshest and compare with previously recorded. Write down what you learned from each of them.
There is safety in numbers
Nowadays, to become a successful player, teamwork and combat strategy skills are sorely needed. In a way, this is very similar to traditional sports. After you start playing better than most of the players on the server, create a team with people you know. Better yet, try to get into an experienced team.
To make useful contacts in esports, you should first attend gaming competitions at the local level. If you prove yourself in local tournaments, you may be hired as a substitute for a higher-level team and will start getting paid.
In esports, the most difficult thing is to achieve an average level of skill, that is, to step over amateur sports and work for a professional result. In any other traditional sport, the player needs to develop their art of play. There is no need to be afraid to use your potential, be it a local gaming tournament or an international championship.
