About the term Esports,

Electronic sports (eSports) comprises the competitive play of video games. Other terms include competitive gaming, professional gaming, e-sport, and cybersport. The most typical video game genres related to electronic sports are real-time strategy (RTS), fighting, first-person shooter (FPS), massively-multiplayer online (MMOG), and racing. Games are played competitively at amateur, semi-professional and professional levels, and some games have organized competition as leagues and tournaments. Events such as Major League Gaming (MLG), Global Starcraft II League (GSL), World Cyber Games (WCG), Dreamhack, and Intel Extreme Masters provide both real-time casting of streamed games, and cash prizes towards the winners.

Player contracts and professional electronic sports titles

There are a variety of titles that support an expert gaming scene. Commonly, companies uses e-sports as a marketing outlet for their games, and also the prizes awarded are occasionally enough to aid players who compete for a living. In such cases, hundreds, thousands and even millions of dollars in prize money are turned out every year for competitors in these titles. For some games, sponsorship extends well beyond the creators of the game being played, and companies such as Intel support competition despite not being active in the video games titles themselves.

The most popular tournaments are those run through the World Cyber Games, the World e-Sports Games, and the Electronic Sports World Cup. The prize money for these events is mainly provided by the big technology corporations who sponsor the events; these businesses also often sponsor eSports teams. A team sponsorship usually includes travel expenses and often free hardware specific to that company.

Although sponsorships have evolved through the years, and oftentimes only sponsoring one gamer at a time-the first all inclusive team sponsorship was handed to Team Abuse in June 2000. Team Abuse was a well-respected Quake II team led by Doug 'Citizen' Suttles along with a gamut of talented players [Toxic, Method, Lord Vader]. Upon their hosting of a grass roots event called Lansanity in Portland, OR Team Abuse was offered a complete sponsorship, setting precedence for many gamers in the future. The Speakeasy sponsorship included a completely leased gaming studio in Lake Oswego, OR having a Speakeasy.net T1 connection. Additionally Team Abuse was delivered to many CPL events, Quake Invitational League events, hosted Lansanity 2, and also found itself sending Marc 'pureluck' Naujock towards the XSI Invitational in London included in the Top ten USA players vs the Top 10 European players tournament. Speakeasy paved the way in which for fully immersive corporate marketing sponsorship for professional gaming by applying merchandising, PR, grass root events, along with a serious curiosity about the gaming community.
