Senior Project

What my senior project is trying to approve is that "Gaming" is doable as a career. And under this topic, I want to people to understand that gaming as career is that just purely playing games, you will have to be able to balance your life, so as long as it doesn't effect your Life, it's not bad to make it as a career for few years. People can go pro on anything, like as well known, people go pro on every sports. Basketball, Baseball, Football, even secondary sports like chess. The Korean Olympic Committee (KOC) have announced that they have brought the KeSPA into the organization as an affiliate member, which in turn means that eSports are now an official 2nd level Olympic sport through the KeSPA. This means that eSports will now fall under the same category as other 2nd degree Olympic sports, including chess, automobile racing, polo and cheerleading. So according to this that we know, Gaming is a sport. Well, the game type im talking about is not this simple games on phones. It's real competitive gaming that requires teamwork and personal skills. 

But theres risk for this as a career, for some people when they are pursuing their gamer dreams, they won’t realize how far away they are from it, so they just kept on playing and pursing it, then they’ll get addict to it and get nothing done in their life time. So the mean point is you will have to know how to balance your life between going pro gaming and getting things done in real life. But as what those gamer said:"I was just lucky." 

If you really want to be famous in this area, you have to be good, you have to be better than the rest. So its definitely not like what you see, just playing game and have fun. Theres requirements at every team house. More than 13 hours practice everyday without a break. So this takes a lot of effort. But then income of this career is not bad at all right now, it will rise up in the future but currently is like this. once you get into a pro team, The dream about playing their favorite video game, get cheered on by thousands of fans and The best part about all these is you get paid a professional salary for doing it! Western LoL gamers get $12500 per split, plus any additional prize money from tournaments and their own personal streams on Twitch. The bare minimum they make is $25,000 per year if they don’t stream, get sponsorships or win any tournaments. On average, you can expect an average salary of 50-60k annually if you stream and also get sponsored, which most teams do.
