I learned about eSports for League of Legends last year, due to constant searching on how to play the game. I somehow come across a video about Doublelift, an eSport player who actually has an interview on how he started on the sport. Through that interview, I became aware that there are teams formed up to contest with each other, just like what they do in Garena PH and other Asian teams.
I became to like the team where Doublelift is. I have no idea how popular his team is however, I know for a fact that as an individual he is quite popular because of his back story. He concentrated in learning and practicing playing League and nevertheless gained the title of "Best AD Carry"
Later on I finally got to know his team which is Counter Logic Gaming (CLG). Now this season's LCS is happening, I'm rooting for this team. First two games I watched them play they LOST. It was quite a disappointment although I didn't really back off from rooting them.
Then after that I've watched 2 more games, in which they won - the only thing that went on my mind is that it doesn't matter if your bet lose as long as you keep on rooting them, the moment they win all you will do is be impressed! How I love that feeling.
It's probably the same feeling that people who has fans with other sports such as basketball or soccer. I can say is that eSports is fast growing because of the dedication RIOT puts in this MOBA, they are widening the options for people to choose where they really belong.
