>Instead of practicing Overmeme
I don't want to play a shit game tho
>>389195085
I'm sure you know of more enjoyable ways to make $150k a year
Being good at videogames is mostly genetic though.
I have shaky hands so I could never go pro.

>play a load of games you dislike all day because they happen to be where the money is
lmao what a career.

Blizzard bought off the former CEO of ESPN and Major League Gaming, but did they secretly buy off ESPN as a whole?

Hanzo and Genji would be so fucking cool if they weren't unironically the weeb heroes
>>389195343
Its obvious you never worked a day in your life. You're gonna hate it
>Overwatch
>pro
this is marketing, no one who plays overwatch is a "pro"
>>389195343
Anyone got that video of that one Overmeme pro talking about how he hates the game and how he would never play it if he wasn't being paid for?
>>389195343
Have fun working at Wal-Mart, dumb fuck.
>>389195471
But they're not, they're actually Japanese from Japan
>>389195516
>coping this hard
>>389195361
I don't think they could afford ESPN.

You've got to find or make a competitive game that makes having shaky hands an advantage.
Then you can rake in the dosh ezpz.
>be blizzard
>dump millions of dollars into making your babby game a competitive e-sport
>some crybaby autist makes a mod spinoff that blows it the fuck out in viewership and active players in a matter of weeks

I actually enjoy my job and get this, get to enjoy videogames as a hobby.
Imagine your job being something that just ruins both.
>>389194557
>Makes 150k one year
>Overwatch dries up, nobody plays it any more
>Has no marketable skills, has to live the rest of his life off of that one year of salary
GG.

Overwatch sure hasn't made billions or anything, right fellow stupid moron?
Haven't most pros moved on from this game though?
I remember an image floating around showing all entrant pro teams and there's only like 4 remaining.
>>389195916
Battlegrounds?
He may be getting 150k a year, but he also has to play Overwatch all the time.
>>389195916
>tiny dev team(40 people) with old tech
>lots of tuning by low pay autists and betas
>sell 30 million, basically pure profit
>it unironically becomes the biggest esport as well
didn't sumail win the international at 16 y/o
what's your point op? overwatch is still a terribly boring game with a dying esports scene
>>389196081
Been following the scene for a while, no really great players except Dafran(banned) has left. There isn't really any other games to leave for
>>389196290
>unironically becomes the biggest esport as well
bait, overwatch is dying and the esport scene is dying faster
>>389196372
>even mentioning f2p gaben shite
gtfo
>>389196589
>biggest esport scene
>dying
please stop coping, mobatards are the worst
>>389196290
>it unironically becomes the biggest esport as well
You can't be serious
>>389196741
1st, you're wrong
2nd, calling overmeme an esport is a joke in itself, competitive Q pressing isn't an esport
