Esports (or electronic sports) is a form of competitive gaming that uses video games as its basis. It can be organised into various tournaments where gamers compete against each other, individually or in teams. It is often seen as an alternative to traditional sports, and it is often considered more entertaining because of the fast-paced action and a diverse audience.
ESports has gained massive momentum since its emergence in the 2000’s, with the first major tournament host – Major League Gaming (MLG) – debuting in 2002. Since then, the world of Esports has grown exponentially and a variety of games have made their way to the tournament circuit.
