Esports high schools are popping up all iver Japan. Its a great thing that hikkikomori /otaku/ shut-in gamers can finally be rewarded instead of punished.

"Despite its growing popularity — the club gained 800,000 Twitter followers between January 2021 and March 2023—and its strong sporting results, Sentinels has so far been unable to monetize its brand to meet its immediate cash needs sufficiently. The crowdfunding launched by the organization in 2023 highlighted this issue. The club initiated a campaign aimed at its supporters, valuing itself at $30M according to the fundraising page on StartEngine. Sentinels aimed to raise $1.23M, with a minimum initial investment of $300 and a share price of $3.15. The campaign closed on November 4th and brought in $192,984 from 110 participants, six times less than the initial goal."

While a player's primary task is to compete and win, their contributions to brand growth and partnerships are often undervalued.
Aligning incentives between teams, players, and fans is a challenge we must navigate to push the industry forward.

Anyone remember pre-OWL overwatch days? Rose tinted glasses era or game that had issues we didn’t want to admit to? Personally I thought the esports scene was more vibrant pre OWL (I ran events in both eras)
