Imagine if SOF & SFL were like this...

Post by MinatO »

Last weekend me and a couple of friends did a roadtrip to Lille (France) to watch the LCS (european competition in League of Legends) live. This event was basically a small one compared to for example the world championships and thus had only about 5000 spectators.

Never went to these kind of events, but I must say the french are insane. They truely bring entertainment as you can see in the video below. What I expected to be boring after a couple of hours, was probably the most fun i've had in a long time.

Not many "normal people" know this but being in a top30 team of the world basically consists of earning €5000 euros/month excluding stream and tournament winnings (the lowest prizes are €10 000 going up to 2 million per tournament), living in gaming houses with swimming pools or penthouses, sponsored by Adidas, Pringles, Alienware, Gigabyte, MSI, Intel, Razer, Monster Energy ... while traveling 10 different countries a year to be cheered upon by thousands of spectators.

You had to wait like 1 hour in line, to get inside, a picture or autograph with your favourite player would take like 20 minutes because 100's of people are pushing to get one. It's even worse for the best players. I literally saw 1 player, being blocked in a corner by 500 people, for 2-3 hours before he could actually get some food from the lobby rofl.

Then I realised: Imagine if this was for SOF and its SFL. But instead, we struggle to survive with like 30 players in online tournament :mrgreen:

pfff indeed. imagine how big the line of people who want my autograph would be..damn

I'd love to live in a sponsored penthouse but unfortunately the only games I'm decent at are sof, tetris and plants vs zombies.

Amazing 5000 people actually show up though. I find it very boring to watch someone else play videogames :mrgreen:

The World Championships (LOL) this year was in the Footbal World Cup Stadium of Korea with 45 000 viewers.
The pro scene is absolutely insane tbh.
Top10 players nowadays have transfer fees of €20 000 - €500 000.
The best player in the world was offered a €1 million contract to play in China and he said "nah China sucks, i want to stay in Korea" :blink:

Biggest esports event that i'm aware of until now:

Must be the best feeling ever, having 45 000 people cheer for you.
