An In-Depth Look At Pro Gaming

Do you think you are the king of Call of Duty, the Counter Strike champion, or the Halo master? It’s easy to talk a big game (something which I am particularly good at), but I always prefer to back it up with action, skill, and crushing victory. While playing with friends it’s not too difficult to defeat the competition (of only 3 or 4 people) and build that feeling of supremacy. With success comes arrogance, however.
It’s even crossed my mind; “Wow, maybe I should go pro.” I’ve won a few Super Smash Bros. Brawl tournaments, and consider myself pretty good at Black Ops . While only said jokingly, at the time I wondered what it would take to get myself to the professional gamer level. After meeting a few pro gamers, and seeing how much work is involved, I confirmed that pro gaming is not for me.
