This is a photo of an event venue where an E-sports competition was held over a weekend for a mobile game “Mobile Legends: Bang Bang”. I have been playing this game with my friends in the evenings for about 5 years on and off,  but this was the first time I really went to the venue to spectate the matches between professional players. When the matches starts, the atmosphere become boisterous and it is really infectious due to the supporters cheering their hearts out for the teams! And we know that Singaporeans are not the most excitable crowd. I hope that the E-sports scene in Singapore can further develop and become a viable career option for Singaporeans.
