Ok, guys let me take you with me through one event we had yesterday.
In fact yesterday we had a special esport match between one of my Teammates, his name is Munas Dabbur a striker and a pro esport gamer Andrés Torres.
Andrés was newly signed from Redbull to play for them in the esports league. So everything from redbull. We are playing in the red world for red bull and he in the virtual world.
Which Game? Fifa 18 of course!
The exciting thing is that my teammate Munas is not a pro player viewed from the status. But he is playing like a pro. However, Andrés profession is to play Fifa every day for hours.
I have to give you some background knowledge:
In our training camp, we had in the summer the two I am talking about had their first encounter.
This happens because Munas was winning against everybody from our team. He was just too strong. In our camp, we hadon one day our Fotoshooting for the autograph cards.
Andres was also there that day because he also has an autograph card. There the idea that both should play against each other was born.
They did and Munas won.
It was also the first time for me seeing an esport pro. And I have to say Andrés really good.
So yesterday was their second encounter, and the club wanted to make it big. With a lot of noise.
Let me take you with me.
I told you the club wanted to make this game really big. Here you see a fantastic piece of tec. A RED cinema camera. I am not sure if it is the RED WEAPON or EPIC but anyway. Both are expensive and delivers great quality.
Of course a Sony A7S mount on a gimble can't be missing.
Here my Teammate Munas showing his favorite golden controller.
And here our pro player Andrés Torres. He is a really funny guy by the way. I like him really.
A short interview with our Pro. There he said that Munas is a strong player. Even he is not a Pro but he is playing like a professional.
Do you see all the cameras, the softboxes, the screen? Ok, the Screen is not so visible.
Here the preparation for the live stream on Twitch. You heard right. This game was streamed live.
Of course, a picture of me can't be missing :D
Handshake before the match starts.
Andres chose Redbull Salzburg, yes our club and Munas took Bayern Munich.
Maybe you think now that Bayern is the better team. Of course, it is :D, but here they made the settings that every Team has the same strength. Both teams were identical. Munas would not have an advantage with Munich.
Here you can see that every player has the same strength. And yes, you can see me too by the way :D
The game started and Munas scores at first. I have to say that my Teammate had a home advantage because it was in our training center. All spectators were on Munas side and this you can see in the following Picture.
The celebration when Munas scored. It was every time like that.
They made a best of three competition. This means the winner will be the one who wins two times.
Munas won the first match and after that, of course, a handshake. Fair athletes.
Munas won also the second game and that means that he won their second encounter.
Both of them played very good. Really good but Munas, well even he is not a pro esport gamer is he a brilliant player. He loves the game and spend a lot of time in playing it. That's why he is so good.
You want to know how good I am? I will tell you!
You see you don't have to be a pro or other don't need to be seen like one. Nevertheless, you can beat them when you put a lot of effort into it. And Munas is definitely putting a lot into it.
I hope I entertained you well? :D
