As an ex-pro halo 3 player and CoD:MW 2 pro back when I was 18-19, I left the scene learning a lot about life. About how much work actually had to be put into that career. I stopped playing competitively because it was either that, or lose the life I had in the real world at a very crucial time in life.
I went to college the whole time and am still going at 23 because I ended up missing some classes because I was practicing or playing in tournaments. I even still play competitive league of legends but no where near the amount I had to to become pro like I had in other games.
My question, what do you think of how e-sports is growing with league of legends? The world championship's are currently under way and the coverage is better than anything ESPN can put out because they aren't being funded by Disneys money and are completely self made. And where do you see it growing? How quickly? And do you see flagship games like league of legends which is easily overcoming games like SC2 or WoW in terms of competition?
