"How to be a pro gamer"
Proceeds to show mobile games
LOL
Hahaha ikrrr
Dude they are getting paid to play the game. That's the definition of pro gamer, it's the same with pro basketball players if you get paid to play you're a pro.
Ironic how gamers look down on mobile games when just a few years ago people were looking down on esports as a whole. It all goes around
@@juzloopz24 Mobile games and computer games the Philippines or the Filipinos are the champion. Hahaha
@@tensku3924 there a lot of competitive eSports mobile game out there for an example pubg mobile. You can buy skins but there is nothing as pay to win in the game.
They deserve it, they got talent and passion
The Philippines or Filipinos are the champion when it comes to E sports. The Philippines is number one in mobile games and computer games. Hahahah
@@xav4289 i bet u think philipine are the richest country
@@NothingMatter951 one of the richest country in the future.
@@xav4289 hahahaha! U fcking idiot delusional
@@xav4289 you are one of the reason why peenooise wont improve and remain poor

Zxuan vs Dwi Woii 14:55
Tbh no sg pro players or teams yet for those games tho (as far as i know)
@@Phantom_Delta2 yeah our region only can play pubg mobile or ml
@@Phantom_Delta2 iceiceice the legend.
@@Phantom_Delta2 ICEICEICE WTF ? THE MAN HAS BEEN AROUND AGES LMAO
I was blown away when the ZX dude started talking in Bahasa Indonesia. His commitment is admirable.
edit: i LOL'ED at his peeling secret lab chair. Pro-tip: don't get leather chair for home uses.
My chair cushion all peeled, still have to sweep the floor always , do not buy the overpriced chair.
Is no one gonna talk about why his discord is white? Like why?
Yes I know that it’s his choice or preference, just sayin
light mode? never heard of it
@@Donndey don’t even think about using it
so he was the legendary xzuan
How to be a pro gamer
"LEAGUE OF TRASHGENDS"
Vainglory used to be a legend but now it is close to dead, I feel sad
As much as I want to root for them, being an esports player, especially in SG is hard. You have to take into the account of 2 years of NS, where you are at your prime and you wouldn’t be able to participate in competitions. Wasting 2 years is much better to invest in player of different nationality.
If you wanna be a pro gamer you must be in the top 1% highly skilled gamers, else forget it
6:41 it shows him clicking so much but he is literally at the fricking lobby
So true lol
Im trying to become a professional gamer on mobile as well as maintaining my studies but the only thing thats dragging me down away from my dream was my mobile phone. I have a $100 mobile phone about Php5000 in philippines. Its very hard for me to keep up with other pro players because they have better devices. But it doesnt affect me that much because I believe that I will get a better phone someday and pursue my passion to mobile gaming
Good luck dude. Hope you bought that better phone
Funny how money changes perceptions. Previously kids who spent so much time playing games are frowned upon but now some are even revered.
well...many parents forced their kids to study very hard hoping that it will help them to earn money well and easier... so in the end, It's all 'bout the money
, It's all 'bout the dun dun do do do dumb
Like you said, "SOME" is revered. When you are the top performer in anything, you will be revered. Kids who spend too much time playing games are still frowned upon, because face it, the chance to become one of the "SOME" is minuscule.
When I hear vainglory I feel nostalgic
I play mlbb
"As long as he can achieve financial stability, then let him be"
Me: *Started playing 69H a day*
There are only 24 hours in a day. Dont worry i get the joke its just unfunny
@@AloneAgain.1 no humor 🥺
Great video, maybe do a part 2 showcasing the game shadowverse? The game is more geared towards the audience in asia just like mobile legends and there's a big tournament coming up.
Thanks for sharing. Never thought that gaming can also make money.
Zxuan is my idol ever since i started playing ML in 2018
They sacrifice their live to be pro gamer...they deserve it
Not sure if everyone here knows ML stuff but I can explain. So before PC gamers coming right in at me saying I'm a kid playing just ML. I am not, I play what I like and ML is one of them. Feel free to ask what PC games I have in the reply.
Zxuan is special in this case. Just like in the video, his favourite hero is Fanny, for those who are not familiar with Fanny, her second skill makes you fly around just like the one shown in the video. The thing that he mentioned about knowing the map is more like knowing the angle of the wall, the space and the curve. The angle and the space can decide where you land or when you attack. The curve can trap your opponent in a tiny space and let you spam her 2nd skill to full potential.
Not many fanny users or top players does what Zxuan does. The skill cap required is so high that even a 4 year veteran in ML who has no experience with Fanny could not handle her at all. So most of the times techniques are developed and vary individually which made them deadly in their own way. Most top players doesn't like to share that skill set cause of fear of competition or immitation to surpass them. So they don't usually stream with Fanny.
Zxuan however just love to stream with Fanny which gives people more insight to learn and see how she can be used. That's a huge bonus because normal streamers doesn't really take a hero that requires a lot of dedicated time to practice. So they tend to move to a easier role like marksman, mages and fighters (even in ML no one wants to pick tank. Like seriously. I was forced into that role😭) Seeing a pro fanny player live streaming is rare and that's why he can easily be famous.
50% of comment fake gamers calling themselves gamers cuz they use pc
20%Mobile player but diss other mobile game
1%casucal player
29% Actual gamers respecting mobile gamers for their sucess
Should’ve chosen Icex3 for the video. He is the legend of esports not only in Singapore but in the world of esports.
It's marketing gimmick. These gamers call themselves pros, but let's be honest. They are company mascots. The only reason they are receiving much fanfare and investment now is because the corporations are testing if this will take off. Paying for these school dropouts is just a drop in their marketing budget. Once they realize no one really cares about a bunch of speckys hunched over a phone for four hours, they'll move on, probably to VR athletes.
sports for fingers, you know what this mean in the past
btw the person who hate on ZX is noobqueen he is another fanny player.
Noobqueen doesn't hate ZX
VG and quatervoirs were good times man
Really interesting
First PogU
Ok the guy speaks pretty good Bahasa for a Chinese. That's a useful skill. Can see why he has a niche with the Indo fanbase.
Just one word for him *Addicted*
Ah so he's sherline's bf
U didn’t know?
Hope my mum and dad lets me be a gamer, but they only want me to be a student.
why people keep looking down mobile games, i mean they also competed on the pro tournaments n championships mah. they're pro player
Me : "okay lets commit in the esports scene!"
National Service : hey there
I'm actually training for esports the thing is studies r more important
And also whoever says mobile gamers aren't real gamers are just straight up toxic
And bad at mobile games anyone can become a gamer on any platform
Gaming is a ways of Life this is not just a Game this is our world
I am still suprised that people treat these players as gamers. They need to put in just as much work as any other sports. So Sacrificing childhood, friendship schoolwork is autoamtic to a certain degree.
Thx
its a crime that you make this mini documentary about esports and not include the man the myth the legend iceiceice lmao. He's married with children which i find the CNA audience can definitely relate
Maybe CNA can make a part 2 on games like League of legend or csgo, the prize money there are larger, about 1 million for 1st place.
Life does not end at 30 so it is a long way to go to see how life will be
It is similar to singer, movie star, business must create characters to make money for them but those characters still values for them until people still follow
Happy to see vainglory
America: we got good gamers
Singapore: u sure?
6:41 bruh he still at lobby not ingame just switch between brawl,classic tapping like using a m16 in pubg
Well, that's why CNA also enter youtube what 🤣🤭
I played vainglory before joystick controls are released
Nodtalgia
Let’s
Go Go go
Nice
Good for them.
i dont get it why is there is dota2 in a mobile e-sport scene
i used to be a gamer but majority Arcade...
E-sports stopped around 10 years when i was a small kid
Coz i spoiled the monitor around window 7 or vista
My mom would disown me if I become like them.
Do what makes you happy, even if it means, rebelling against your parents
If I'm a parent and my kid is top 1% at the game he/she is playing then I will support them 100%.
But if not, I'm gonna confiscate all gadgets and straighten them up. 😂 The only way this works is if you are really really good. No place for average joes.
14:55 that youtuber is called Noobqueen
The man can speak indonesian!
me: Young and Broke..
well, where is chawy (LoL)? or where is iceiceice (Dota)?
Ohh so this is the fanny guy
It took me a month to master fanny, and savage was as if like it was magic. I was like why do i keeo getting savages even in mythic lmfao. Anyways i have 1v1ed the real mikasa but lost 4 - 6 best of 10
Joining esports is hard enough as u have to sign up for a team and many people can just swipe u off the team
Everyone is talking about how they can pursue their dreams but can we just take a moment to appreciate this sick pen spin???? 10:42
Btw i liked first! 😁
I wonder how people first become Pro Players
Pray for me i want to be pro gamer .i want join esports. And make my family proud,
vain used to be 3v3 single lane one jungle at each side it was way better and more fun back then
The Philippines or Filipinos are legend tho. Hahaha
Competition is my first talent
Dota2 best in history esports price pool +34 million
when young of course you can cope with the fast paced games, when age goes up it will be hard to cope, maybe one day when he earn enough money, time to change a new career, you cant always be a pro gamer for the rest of your life.
How to be pro player
My answer : alot of grind
it's the gaming chair
When there say he got a ace at the first few seconds i through it was csgo or valorant
@@Saint1wrld yep
While skipping the video, at 12:06 I thought she was a toy. Looks nice . In a second, I was thinking of having it home . Ha ha
For a second*
PEOPLE WHO SURENDER IN TORNMENT IS CMI😂😂
So many negative comments... if you guys know how much zxuan really earns you guys will probably shut up cause you guys will never be able to earn that much in your life time.
LOL. All you people defending zxuan will also never earn that much in your life and will probably earn less than zxuan's detractors. He can earn because he is early into the game. Once the field is saturated, hell, even he will be out of a job when fresh blood comes in.
i rather played more internasional game like csgo and dota then mlbb because you can get more income then mobile e-sport
10:35 sounds like she dropped of school too
bruh
Hahaha true
LIGHT MODE
Which game is this ?
Wow these guys mean business
Two companies one money and one coaching support, I would have chosen money HAHHAHA
Zxuan vs Dwi Woii 14:55
eh ada master fanny zxuan
Bro i like how zx is playing ml with fanny
Thats like fireee
I wanna be a pro gamer but I have sweaty hands.
Everytime my sweat drops/touches the screen, the screen will go crazy and start 'controlling' itself
Turn on the AC
@@wadhwa6 sometimes it aint helping and if it s too cold my hand becomes stiff lmao
You can buy finger socks hahaha
Where’s LoL, dota, valorant, csgo, warzone, apex legends, fortnite, r6?
Where’s divinity.uprising?
Didn't know vain glory exists.
If they're happy, I'm happy for them. Do what you love most!
LOL. Their happiness only last until they realize they are nowhere near the elite and will come out of the pipeline lonely, broke, uneducated, and anti-social.
my league players know why SG ppl will nvr make it to professional play
Probably still better than NA if we actually get support. HAHA
@@Saint1wrld HAHA
Even coronavirus didn't stop them
15 hours a day? pft...i play for 17 hours
🤔I wonder...what if instead they were game programmers instead of pro gamers? for the same amount of time and pay. Would ppl still consider it an addiction?
I wanna be a pro gamer but I have sweaty hands so it's more of a disadvantage 😔
Play pc games bro
the kid just said he wants to be a multiple world winner at any esports tournament but he releases he can't/don't even play PC games
OMG WHY HE USING LIGHT MODE FOR DISCORD.
16:43 pre-release of Wild Rift can already be downloaded.
This was made before that
Dwi woii>>>
