For normal players like us, perhaps thinking after a game that you perform well with a lot of processing moments that Faker also can not do (I often think I’m Faker, Boxbox, Hi Im Gosu, …) and I think you guys will have the same thoughts as me. And you will also joke with your fellow players or your team is “I’m Faker” and have the thought of becoming a League of Legends professional gamer. However, have you ever thought what it would be like to be a pro gamer? League of Legends

1. Personal skills
This is a huge difference between professional gamers and casual gamers. Looking at the matches of Faker, who plays for the T1 team, we can see the ability to read the situation and the skill to move away from the moves to surprise others and say “he uses tools? “
This shows how professional gamers have to be to be able to show such skills. Not only that, in casual gamers we always have reflexes to avoid skills with the eyes, but with professional gamers, they also listen with their ears.
For example, when Thresh uses his Q skill there will be additional sound when using it, professional and highly skilled gamers will usually guess with both ears and eyes to avoid being hit by the skill.
2. Tactical thinking
In any e-sports, teams have their own tactics. For League of Legends alone, a MOBA game with a combination of 5 people to achieve the ultimate victory, reasonable strategies are required.
When regular gamers like us play, just find the match and click on play only. At that time, whoever chooses which path will say or can pick and lock without thinking about the team is missing the position.
But professional gamers are completely different, they have a lot of coaches to help professional gamers analyze for them what the match needs and help them choose the most accurate. This also decides to win or lose in a match if the team strategy is better.
3. Ability to connect with people
Game 5vs5 is so there needs to be a connection between the players in a team. The professional players on a team usually get along very well and stick together during practice and competition.
Unlike normal matches where people can meet when placed in the same team and will not care about the other and silently show their skills but when they have played in a League of Legends team professional, they will have to support each other to be able to win.
4. Playing time
Almost every professional gamer has to practice constantly. They must practice the skills, the proficiency, the different tactics. Practice to be able to find out what is suitable for you to maximize it and vice versa, it can help you overcome weaknesses.
5. Make money from playing games and be admired by everyone
Unlike normal gamers, they play games for entertainment. Sometimes the normal players they can still make money through such forms as: streamer, Youtube …
Professional gamers always earn themselves huge contracts from big teams, advertising contracts when their reputation is popular then they are admired and recognized by the world.
6. High pressure-resistant
For casual gamers, when participating in ranking matches, the pressure is also great when climbing the ranking. However, for professional gamers, the pressure is even greater when it comes to finding a way to win for their team, the hope of the fans, playing in a large space with countless audiences.
If they make a mistake, they will suffer the criticism of the fans. Thereby we can see that to be a professional gamer, the ability to withstand high pressure is extremely important.
