Highlighting the beauty of competitive gaming
Capturing the depth and knowledge required to master competitive gaming and the individual skills which create legendary plays have received standing ovations, leaving millions of fans around the world in awe.
Yet for all its beauty, eSports can still be challenging for newcomers. Which is why, for all PGL tournaments, we intend to use an expanded observer team to highlight events and mechanics that may otherwise go unnoticed to both newcomers and seasoned viewers alike.
With this approach, the caster’s commentary will always be complemented by various Picture in Picture or ancillary screens that will highlight all the different elements of competitive gaming without losing focus of the main action
