“It used to be grass roots and now social media has made it incredibly evident and online competitive gaming has BIG BUSINESS and BIG INVESTMENT to back it up. “

Competitive video gaming, also known as electronic sports or e-sports, has experienced a meteoric rise in the past decade or so.

Though e-sports still have a niche audience compared to established professional sports leagues, they’re now a far cry from the days when the only video game tournaments around were Street Fighter matches sponsored by local arcades.

It’s no wonder that gamers across the world take such an interest in their professional counterparts. The video game industry takes in $10.5 billion a year, according to the ESRB. The advent of streaming internet video has bolstered the e-competition industry even more, as it can access worldwide viewership while bypassing the traditional avenue of television coverage. Computer game players are necessarily also regular internet users, and streams have long reach.

Major League Gaming, the largest video game league in the United States, reported 54 million viewer-hours of streaming video watched in 2013, or four times the total number of hours of the NCAA March Madness basketball tournament viewed that year.
