In India, Pubg mobile was banned but Esports Industry has a huge potential for the future. But let’s see some ways to look at it.

Pessimistic: No future.
Optimistic: There’s potential.
Realist: Bleak/extremely niched.

Currently, as it stands there are 2 major stigmas involved with Video games.

The first one is many people grab your place with cheat and hacks in the esports industry and officials are trying hard to stop it, but only in some games. And the second one is it won’t give you a degree and it’s not like physical sports.

Let’s talk about pubg mobile, in one week (20-27 Aug. 2021), Pubg mobile (BGMI India) banned more than 1.4 million devices and 2.6 million accounts. So, it’s great to see that some Esports are working hard to stop hacks and cheating.

But I’d like to take a positive outlook on it. I believe it’s a matter of time and a matter of the right individuals getting together to form something that is promoted as a niche ground root movement before going into commercial whoring.

Esports today can be a marketing tool to the same audience Snapchat caters to with one crucial difference. The esports audience is not ephemeral and has much higher retention numbers.

Celtz won PMPL SA and suddenly everyone appreciates them because it was an underdog team in this tournament. Then, India and Asia come on the esports map. After it, we have more expectations from our Indian teams that they perform well in PMWL and they did. Team Orange Rocks come 2nd position and we didn’t get a trophy from only 7 points. But this performance of OR gave us new hope that we can be an esports player. and can win a trophy for our country.

For the future of esports industry in India, we need to require these things:

A mass following:

It comes from acceptance already in place. We require a central place for people to hang out and discuss. Connecting gamers of India together is done across different games but there’s no central medium that caters to them alone. Most of them are just ad-based biased outlets of video games.

A mass sponsorship or infusion of funds: We are going to fast to grab these opportunities for sponsorships. Many communities have foreign sponsorships like Tsm, 8bit, Godlike, celtz, Fnatic, etc.

This requires support by companies that actually believe in the idea that the youth of today have purchasing power and need the right message and medium to be catered to. So think Redbull, think Razer/Steelseries gear, and don’t think about biscuits.

The right governance:

One that doesn’t have criminals like the IGC guys lowballing dealing and cheating Indian audiences. This has to be by gamers, for gamers, and gamers. We can’t have someone who sat in an FMCG for 20 years ever try to understand the mindset of a gamer. And gamers are great guys who might not do well in school and might not be ramp walk models but have the dedication to build their IQ.

and also the Indian govt. notice that they will search for it and talk with gamers and then make a govt. gaming association and which works for the esports Industry.

The right vision:

What does esports stand for? Competition at the highest level where caste, creed, financial status, religion, body type, and physical attributes (height/weight/skin colour) don’t matter. Do you have what it takes mentally and mechanically to compete using your mind? That’s what eSports is about.

It is the purest form of competition. Very akin to Chess btw but Chess is far less mechanically demanding.

So, If you wanna be an esports player, you need to grind yourself and have a good team with good synergies.

Be Pro In Every Situation So you can be felt proud.
