With CS2's launch around the corner, there has been a lot of hype around the world, especially in India, with the announcements of events, localized content, etc. Skyesports recently announced an event with a total prize pool of 2 Crore INR ($244,000), which made global headlines in the esports world. Counter-Strike has never seen a prize pool this big in India. As a matter of fact, it was not until recent times that we had any sort of a prize pool this size, except for the Indian Gaming Carnival, which had boasted of a $300k prize pool in 2012 (but we don't talk about that).
A nice read. You have voiced some of the concerns I have when I sit and think about careers in e-sports. While it may not affect me directly, there indeed are some near and dear ones I worry about.
