Nice article. So when are there going to be an event in Sarawak and Sabah? There's plenty of SC2 players here as well. Another important factor for success is that organizer should abolish the barriers between pro players and wanna be pros. Biggest issue I think are that pro players here are too arrogant and seldom want to mix with those up and comers. Usually people wants to go for fun lively community events and not going to some event to see some pro's showing off and bash other players. Pros should act like spokesman and promote interest for the games, not showing off and demoralize losing teams. Just my 2 cents. All the BEST with your events. Will surely attend it if held in East Malaysia.  |

QUOTE(FXOBoSs @ Nov 30 2011, 02:29 PM) I agree and have touched on the pro's issues in the article. Malaysian e-sports is not in infancy. Its been around for a long time since brood war and the original free server of dota. I have money to pump into it. But the investment is BAD because of the community. It is no longer up to the organiser, its up to the community to show the organisers the investment is worth while. Malaysian sponsors are even very very very negative when I have approached them about e-sports. Having done their research they are aware of the same habits in Malaysia and the return on investment would be almost zero. The one thing that Malaysia can rely on though, is its patriotism and community mentality. If people can start to create new habits within the community, the money will come. Yah, glad that there's someone fighting and promoting e-sports in Malaysia. I also personally hope that our e-sport scene will bloom. I've organized a tournament last year, its really hard to find a sponsor, so I sponsor the prize. Reception was ok and there's lots of cool gamers here in Malaysia. Few players even helped me to coordinate, execute and supervise the tournament in my absence. |
