- How Esports Teams Make Money?
What do you think of when you visualise a sports tournament? A packed
stadium? Fit athletes battling it out for glory? For decades, sports tournaments
have generally been a staple in the lives of many around the world. From FIFA
World Cups to NBA games and Cricket tournaments, sports have always been
associated with physical activity. However, in the last decade, there’s been an
exponential rise in a type of sports that has generally been overlooked and
undermined. A sport that anyone, from any part of the world could take part in.
This is the story of the rise of e-sports. Gaming is the fastest-growing form of
entertainment globally. On its current trajectory, we estimate the esports market
will generate $1.8 billion in 2022 and the video game market itself will generate
around $190 billion. The top esports organizations are worth more than $200
million according to Forbes and those evaluations have been climbing steadily.
So the money behind the scenes is there, but the revenue streams for esports
organizations are complicated and complex. But before we jump right into the
numbers, let’s take a look at what esports are and what pushed them to their
current heights. Esports is the term used to describe competitive gaming, with
massive tournaments in games like League of Legends, DOTA 2, Rocket
League, FIFA and many more. The LA Times says eight million people log on
every day to take part. And yet, for some of us, it still feels somewhat foreign, an
underground culture even. The most played right now is Dota 2, with prize money
well into the nine-figure mark and attracting thousands of participants and related
tournaments. The top Dota 2 tournament called The International had a prize
pool of $40,000,000 in its latest installment. So how do these e-sports teams
work and how do they manage to raise this enormous amount of money? Let’s
take a look. Put simply, eSports are electronic sports. Organised competitive
gaming events in various leagues with teams and players battling it out for
victory. Intel started pushing eSports with the first Intel Extreme Masters gaming
tournament back in 2007 at CEBIT. Worldwide viewership of eSports
competitions has helped push popularity into the mainstream. To the point that
Intel has even tried to get eSports officially recognised by the International
Olympic Committee by bringing season 12 of the Intel Extreme Masters to
Pyeongchang during the 2018 Winter Olympics. Event attendance at the big
stadium competitions is increasingly on the rise as fans make an effort to watch
their favourite teams compete, but online viewing is increasing too. A survey in
China revealed 45% of the adults there had watched esport at some point. But
what attracts so many people to this supposedly niche field?

I thought u were some big youtuber due to the video quality and proffesionalism until i saw ur subs
U will easily reach several millions subs soon if u keep this up
this comment made me sub cuhz i didnt realize that neither lol
Keep continuing dude!!U have good voice which attracts auditory
Good going i subscribed !!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼‼️
This video is so well made. God damn you need more subs.
Quick edit: you earned my sub
Were not talking about big orgs like faze optic or 100Ts... I mean teams like eunited splyce envy etc... How do they owners or sponsors make money?? They have no fanbase.
So far I haven't seen anyone answer the question: What do sponsors get out of sponsoring esports teams? Aside from the exposure. Because for ex., RedBull can suddenly decide not to sponsor esports teams anymore and they'd still be pretty well-regarded for sponsoring the usual extreme sports activities
You just earned a sub.
Very well made video. Nice job
Here before this blows up. Amazing work :)
This video is really well made
Awesome stuff!
I always wondered what’s in it for the companies organising the tournament. For example, on iRacing, Porsche run a tournament with a £200,000 prize pool, but the series only gets about 30,000 views every week, surely they don’t make a profit from that

Esport Teams are a farce. Theres nothing stopping the players from forming their own team and representing themselves in these tournaments. These organizations just seem to be using the talent of underaged players to generate their own profits without providing anything tangible to the players. Unlike professional sport leagues, theres no barriers to entry (forming a team and moving up to something like the "Premier League" of gaming isnt a thing) and these teams dont provide the players with anything they already have (no training or coaching like sports teams do to develop their players). These teams simply able to eat do to taking the crumbs off the players plates. Most of these young kids are simply drawn to the teams bc their favourite TH-camrs or Streamers have some kind of ownership or allegiance to the team and is enough to pull them in.
Actually not true. These Orgs have an entire staff just for the Team (Coaches, Analysts, Assistent and so on)

Esports isnt a sport, its a competition but not a sport and i have no idea why would people claim its sport
but all sports has a competition right?
@@egatnaufal1030 the definition of sport clearly states that it must have physical/athletic effort/activity to win or compete. Esport has nothing to do with being athletic and has no physical effort to practice. By your logic Masterchef is a sports show and not a reality show right? Wrong logic. Esport is definitely skilled and hard competition but it doesn't make it sport
@@yuval1945 esports is called a sport because of the similarites to normal professional sports.
@@yuval1945 Sport isnt about movement chess is a sport aswell its about the competetivness.
I think esport still sport, the thing is all other sport start as a game for fun and then there is competition to see who is the best for that, like you playing football with friend just for fun, and then there is football cup, the basic concept is same for video game
Fortnite not gaming 🤮🤢
