As the technology develops so fast, computers have come into almost everyone’s room. Whether use it to work or to play, computer is quite convenient. And as a by-product of computers, online games become more and more popular among people especially young guys such as World of Warcraft and League of Legends. Thanks to the internet, people from all over the world can play games together. There are also many competition about online games and attracts a lot of young people to fight for their dreams to become the best player of the world.
When we talk about e-sports, we’ll think of WCG which is the best competition of e-sports all over the world. Players play games for their country and try their best to get a good rank in order to win honor both for their country and themselves. And I’d like to introduce Sky, Li Xiaofeng ,who won the first place of Warcraft 3 in WCG2005 and become the first Chinese to stand on the world podium. His experience makes lots of young people become interested in e-sports.
Who don’t want to stand on the world ? Who don’t want to make what they like as their job ? Who don’t want to win honor for their country? Now, e-sports give everyone a chance to play for your country, you don’t need to have a quite strong body, all you need is your love for online games. The development of online games spawned the e-sports. Samsung seized the chance and hold the biggest event of e-sports– WCG. Though this event will not be held again. But it has made a lasting impression on people who enjoy the e-sports.
E-sports is the same as normal sports. If you want to win, you need to practice a lot. And it’s a battle between intelligence instead of physical strength. E-sports player are also wage earner, they will be trained everyday by their club just like soccer and basketball players. But e-sports have its own advantage that other sports don’t have. It’s membership base. For instance, over 20 million over the world play League of Legend. It’s much bigger than other sports, isn’t it? From this, we can know the charm of the e-sports.
And the most important, online games is quite easy to learn and to enjoy when compare with others such as running, jumping. All you need is a computer that is connected to the internet. Now, there are more than 40 million people in China take part in varies kinds of e-sports. E-sports is not a game, it’s a battle and competitors fight for their dream. We can develope team spirit and improve the ability of thinking, reaction, eye coordination and also discipline our willpower. Quite good, don’t you think so? It’s wrong to say that play games is of no use. We can also win prize by playing games, we can also win honor by playing games and we can find our value by playing games.
Online games is not bad but we should not lose ourselves into it. We should enjoy it and play it appropriately. E-sports is fantastic and amazing and full of passion, and I think everyone can enjoy it. Life is also a big game, and we are the players of this game. We play this big game, and enjoy it.
