I've just been hired on as a high school Esports coach. One of the things I would like to do is setup a stream so students and players can watch matches live. I'm familiar with streaming as I did it for about 5 years prior. I'm also familiar with setting up a stream for 2 PCs, the problem is that for some of these titles it would be great to be able to give 4 POVs or showcase multiple Smash games that are happening at the same time.

What do you think would be needed to make this happen, I have some budget for this, but nothing crazy. Could probably spend about $500-$1500 on this setup for now, with upgrades happening next year (school year that is)

My goal is to make an app much like the ESPN app but soley for eSports. My biggest worry is copywrite law. Is the term "eSports" copywrited? I know the teams that play professionally are for sure but how do i go about getting permission to showcase their logos/stats on my app?

Would it be Madden or are there any other football games that people play online like a streetball version or something?

Hi I am looking for a content creation team to join. I have been making goofy gaming content for 10 years on YouTube and have just started streaming recently. I am a small creator but I would love the opportunity to join a team of people who want to make gaming content same as I do and grow off of that. Of course ultimately I want to make a career of it. Gaming is the only hobby I love. Can anyone help?

I bought the X2V2 Pulsar Mini and enjoyed everything about it. I loved using it until the mouse clicks started malfunctioning and the quality declined. Aside from that issue, can you recommend a mouse that has the same feel, weight, and shape? I'm looking for a mouse almost identical to the X2V2 Pulsar Mini but won't break on me and hopefully below 100 dollars.

so basically, i work for one of the companies that run tournaments and events. i have been given the task to make a library filled with games for people who dont have experience in gaming to find and inform themselves about games. i am making a large excel list for these titles. i have gotten to around 65 Games now, but its been getting extremely difficult finding titles that arent dead. this is where i ask you guys for help. name me some games that nobody knows about, but still have some active players and preferably already any kind of e sports scene. doesn't need to be official.

Lol sorry for the wierd looking table, i suck at excel. still, i thank you guys for any sugestions!

Edit: forgot to mention. this list is missing a lot of the popular games, but they have already been documented aswell. so dont bother with the games like LoL or COD, theyre on. if its popular, its on there.

I want to join female competitive esports for Valorant. How would I go about doing it? I can’t compose my own team because I don’t know anyone who would want to do that.

I'm interested in making an "esports" team but not 100% sure how. Im trying to make it more like a team of competitve players from COD, Valorant, or any game really. Im a streamer and also want to make a content team for this "club". Im also not sure how i would find tournament or events for the competitive teams

Hello guys!

I'm a longtime Call of Duty Mobile player, and I thought it would be awesome to track my game stats to see where I stand in the global gaming community. I've also been wondering if there’s a way to earn from my gaming skills (because, yeah, I do see gaming as a real skill—don’t know about you all!).

Besides gaming, I’m a programmer, but gaming is where my real passion lies. So, I started developing an esports app—a gaming tracker where verified groups can host tournaments, and players can track results and rankings as they compete. My goal is to create a mobile app where people can monitor their stats, stay connected to the gaming community, and maybe even explore ways to make money from gaming. I’ve been working on it for the past few months.

What do you all think? Am I on the right track? I’d really appreciate honest feedback!

Made a group for like minded esports bettors if yall want a free community to discuss bets in🙏🙏

Hello, I read the rules and I don't think this will be a violation.

I am apart of an online amateur league for a video game called "League of Legends". The league is called , "Beer League", so I think it'd be really cool to get a beer company to sponsor an upcoming tournament. I'm currently working on creating a 1-Day tournament between the existing teams for a prize pool of $500. Does anyone know of any small beer companies that might be interested in being our sponsor?

Players are all across the US, but we have a heavy concentration in Texas (Austin, Dallas, Dallas) and Minnesota (Minneapolis).

Insider Gaming has announced a new esports and gaming partnership with Jake Lucky's Gaming World Media:

I was recently watching a Charles Barkley interview about how the NBA players are about to make 100 million dollars a year and star players are already planning on sitting out back to backs. I used to be a huge fan of the NBA but after all the 3 pointers and terrible refs and whiny athletes, I turned it off. To fill this void I picked up working out , now that I am in great shape, I started looking for the next thing to fill my time.

I recently picked up an Xbox and started playing Fortnite. This game is dangerously addicting , after that I downloaded warzone , again dangerously addicting. I wanted to see the best players in the world so then I jumped into the world of esports. I began watching tournaments but something hit me, it is 10x more fun to actually play these games than to watch them. I don't doubt their skill but I just don't get the same feeling I used to get from traditional sports viewing.

At least these professional athletes they were doing something I physically am unable to do. As far as these esports athletes there is nothing really that fascinating that I can't achieve with players my skill level. I can get an elimination , I can get a double elimination. As long as players that I'm playing are on my skill level, I to can achieve some of these things. Once you give me some people my rank I can get that hero feeling.

So my conclusion is that Gaming will ultimately be bigger than traditional sports, actually it already is from some studies. I don't think the viewership will ever reach traditional sports heights but who knows maybe it will. All I know is I have arguments with my father who says he doesn't understand how someone can play video games for 2-3 hours straight. At the same time he can watch NFL games for 3-4 hours without moving a muscle. It's time to accept the truth that playing games is more fun than watching.

I’m going to keep parts of this story somewhat vague to conceal my identity, and the identities of others.

I started playing MOBAs at 13 years old. I played LoL during OBT. I immediately fell in love with the genre. I would go on to No-Life LoL for a few years. I was 1900 LP in LoL. Eventually mid Diamond 1. This was before the current Bronze/Silver/Gold/etc ranking system. And before Masters/GM tiers. I would regularly be queued with players like HotshotGG, Reginald, bigfatjiji, saintvicious, Kobe, etc.

Eventually I switched to another MOBA that had just came out. Similar to LoL, but different in many ways. I very quickly rose to the top of the ladder. By 16, I believe I was the best player in the game.

The competitive scene began to take off. At first there were community ran leagues, but shortly after the developers started injecting money in the scene. I would create my own team, and immediately begin competing. While we were, “good” at first, we ended up making roster moves at every single position. At a certain point, we would have Top 3 Players in each respective role in NA. We came in 2nd place in the first international online tournament. We were very clearly the best team in NA.

At that time I was in 10th grade, and with the support of my family - I dropped out of high school & started playing video games full time.

In our team we had, myself, 2 players from Canada, a player from Florida, and a player from Virginia. Our manager lived in Hawaii (former team player who was removed) and our coach had recently moved to the US from China.

3/5 of us moved into a gaming house in NE USA. We would set up folding tables, computers, and monitors in the living room.

Our Chinese Coach would make the 4 hour drive at least 2x/month and would stay for the weekend. He also worked a full time job. We would review vods for hours and hours. We would come up with draft strategies, we would simulate all sorts of different situations. We would constantly scrim, and compete in inhouses.

The “gaming house” quickly turned into a bit of a party house. Lots of drinking. Lots of smoking weed. And LOTS of snorting adderall.

We would take adderall for every scrim, every league match, and every tournament match. One of our players turned into a borderline alcoholic.

Our Chinese coach would smoke 2 cigarettes at once. Every time. Inside. He’d smoke a “regular” cigarette, and a “menthol” immediately after. Always in pairs.

We would end up living in that house for about 9 months. We made a total of only $150k/combined split between the 7 of us. The sponsorships would provide gear & care packages. We ended up winning an international tournament. Probably one of the best memories of my life.

Eventually things would start to fall apart. The competitive scene lost funding from the developer. People started playing different games. While we were able to easily reach high elo in LoL, we still weren’t nearly good enough to compete with even the NA Challenger Series Teams.

Everybody moved out, and life went on.

I just wanted to share my story as a professional gamer that never really amounted to anything. I believe there’s a chance people who know who I am may say this. If that’s the case, I’d appreciate a DM over a comment.

If anyone has any questions… I’d be willing to answer.

Like it would be simple: provide the computers, but only connect them to an intranet and not to the internet. problem fixed.

Basically its been around 11 days since my deposit went through. Didn't get the funds. I emailed and contacted support hundreds of times but all they do is send me the same a.i generated message of saying "We're doing our best to handle your request" and their excuse for the delay is the external payment provider has not responded to them. LMAO, what is this joke of a site? Don't ever use this site. So many problems with their systems. Both deposits and withdrawals.

My 4 year old gets home from day care and just wants to race. He loves it. He loves drifting and going really fast. He's better than me, and I have more than 30 years of gaming experience. How can I help him? Is there a potential future for him in esports when he gets old enough to really invest in it?
