It’s been some time since we’ve last talked about eSports, but a good thing takes time.
What is eSports?
Now: For those of you who don’t know what eSports is, let me explain. eSports is short for ‘electronic sports’ and is the term for competitive video gaming. It’s exactly what you probably think it is by now: Two gamers sitting in front of their PCs, playing games against each other. So far, so good. But eSports is more: It’s professional gamers sitting in front of their PCs, playing live before an audience of several thousand spectators, competing for a huge prize pool. eSport players are becoming almost as famous as the ‘real’ sport stars with fans screaming their names and them giving autographs. The latest huge tournament, the League of Legends World Championship finale in Berlin, Germany, sold out their 17,000 tickets in just 90 seconds. You find this unbelievable? Then take a look at this video.
How can I participate?
With this out of the way let’s get to the good part: We are sponsoring an eSports tournament! The game? FIFA17. Now – if you want to participate head over to the tournament registration page @ time2win. Make sure to also read the rules before you sign up. 😉 There will be eight qualifiers so you’ll have ample chance of unleashing the eSports star in you, make sure you secure one of the first 4 places and thereby qualify for the grand finale.
