Betting has been happening for years. CSGO and skin gambling is one of the primary reasons that game blew up globally.
Oh yeah, more wisdom from the miracle maker. You can fuck right off.
You don't have to look to Asia for the on-site esports events at scale: DreamHack, ESL Majors etc., they fill all the stadiums they want and they already do. For CSGO this is happening in the US as well, but – although sold-out events with high prize money – only the fans know.
Im very fortunate for my parents believing in my gaming career and I am currently going pro (I have other sources of income with 500k a year)
The last bit about our relationship with time hit home, wow thank you for this content.
wtf this is mourinhos bros?
gary you might wanna take a look at your activison investment
that company is going down the drain
cough
blizzard
cough
…then we get hit by a solar flare and we are all screwed : D
bruh call of duty is losing relevance faster than anything else due to the continuous disappointing releases, should've invested in LoL, Dota or CS:GO or fornite thats where the banks at right now
Wow scams on another level now
This guy is like Gordon Ramsay of esports
Call of duty was a bad investment.
wow my parents fucking suck
WE
ARE
GAMERS.
biggest problem is definitely the developers making a casual game with no competitive playlist / ranked mode for a $25 million league, people are playing a completely different game than what we are watching
Gary it’s extremely unfair to bash the parents. Parents aren’t worried about the video games melting there brain. They are worried that the video games will take up ALL of there time hence not having time to do other important things in life like studying and doing homework and getting good grades so they can actually graduate high school.. I play video games a lot but I would never blame my parents for trying to get me off to study or to go outside or hang with friends etc etc… video games are obviously on the rise but it isn’t fair to berate parents who don’t want there children on there every second of the day. Honestly man, the chances of someone getting to the success and popularity of ninja is like the same odds of someone getting to the mlb or nba. I get what your saying but I’d pump the brakes a bit on blaming the parents
sports betting is already in esports as well get your knowledge up fam…. bet on league words on bet365
Gary vee just said "the publisher will be thoughtful" activision? thoughtful? ahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahhahahahahahahahahaha
a key thing gary vee forgets is that while "esports" might be forever. A league is only as good as the game people play and if a game dies so does the league! This isnt a "call of duty players in 50 years will be…" because who knows what we'll be playing in 50 years… i can tell you one thing tho…basketball will still be 2 hoops and a ball. And that is why esports is a bigger bubble then people realize. I think it'll last forever but across multiple games
CODleague is not the wave lmao thats a L waiting to happen
LMFAO THIS GUY THINKS COD LEAGUE IS GUNNA BLOW UP! IM DEAD!!!!
Gary is very on point with esports and gaming on the whole, but I really wish he'd dig more into which games actual gamers value. Siting that tiktok ppl like Call of Duty is like saying the guys at the bar enjoy beer pong so clearly there is future in table tennis. League has a way more promising future, along with CS GO, Starcraft, Dota, etc. Call of Duty is constantly pushing out a new game every year, just trying to capitalize on shallow players and the console market (not to mention everything activision touches goes downhill and the blizzard/activision merger has been very disappointing to watch it unfold). Everyone knows the future of gaming is PC, and the best games to start kids on would be CS GO and Starcraft brood war. But hey what do I know
He said: "Sports and music are the easiest bets for the rest of your life". I'm an electronic musician and I really hope he is right.
"what game should i be PUSHING him to play right now, so that in 5 years he's a billionaire" … wow i dont like this man
Oh really. Why isn't 100 Thieves in the league? Because the league doesn't really have any sponsors other than the Air Force and PlayStation and views are in the ten thousands compared to NBA's millions.
Fucking loved this. Haha Gary thank you!
Amazing video.Thanks for the subtitle!
I built an esports gaming center in New York because I want to be on the ground floor and build with it #GameUSA
Dead on! There is a parenting hypocrisy going on.
A guy pushing his son to play a video game for 5 years so he becomes a billonare, sorry but I feel like that guy is a total asshole.
Fuck ESports and Fuck your bollshieet Idiot you talking nonsense
I heard most of this 20 years ago when I was in the middle of it. Although much has changed and grown….
… much has NOT come true or can't come true because game publishers are (still) anti-esports. Sports = stable, almost unchanging rules and features. Publishers = Constantly churning out new products, changing rules and features.
Therefore…the game industry itself is (still) keeping e-sports from becoming e-sports. Or gives it a 10 month life span.
Imagine the NBA or FIFA changing their rules, environment and equipment every season. That is the reality!
Solution? Power is not given, it is TAKEN. E-sports should be (made) separated from game publishers. Because game publishers are the PROBLEM, the "broken hyperdrive".
I think I've already said too much but some of you might figure it out in the next 20 years.
I’m trying to text on community, but I haven’t been able to open it: Does anyone know how I can fix that ?
Accountability is so key Gary. Thanks as always for sharing.
I don't know why, but everything that has been said here, I've already known. I felt like I've could learn something new for the e-sport industry. But nonetheless I did enter the industry way back at 2013. Hope you guys have learn so much. Cheers. Hope to learn more from other videos. Have a wonderful day guys
