Competitive gaming is commonly referred to as E-sports. It shares many similarities with traditional sports, with fans supporting teams, watching matches, and making bets on the winners. Esports events are broadcasted live, attracting millions of viewers globally, making it a billion-dollar industry in recent years. Esports can be categorized into two main types: the simulation of real-life sports (such as FIFA, NBA, and MLS), and classic esports games like League of Legends, DOTA 2, and CS:GO.
Thanks to streaming platforms like YouTube and Twitch, watching players compete has become accessible to anyone with an internet connection. Similar to traditional sports, professional esports players can earn substantial salaries. The most significant E-Sports Betting tournaments often feature teams and players competing for millions of dollars in prize money.
Certain E-Sports betting are game-specific, such as CSGO, League of Legends, FIFA, and DOTA2. For instance, a bettor might place a wager on the first kill in a particular match.
