Introduction to the world of Esports in English

Gaming was continuously a part of the human life, a necessary entertainment and often an educational tool. A long time ago, hopscotch, tag, hide and seek and many more traditional games were the ways of entertainment. Greeks invented the Olympic Games, and Roman emperors used to state that people need “bread and games” justifying the construction of the Colosseum in Rome and other game infrastructure. Card games were also mainstream over the planet, people would meet in cafes, bars or houses and play their favorite card games jointly. In the 15 th century, King Louis XI found a new brilliant way of amusement and invented billiard in Northern Europe. In the World Sports Encyclopedia sponsored by UNESCO, Wojciech Liponski 1 has gathered more than 3,000 games and sport disciplines from all the nations of the world. In the last decade, most of the games became computer-generated, allowing users to play football, soccer, basketball and baseball virtually… Additionally, new types of games were invented such as Real Time Strategy (RTS) and Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) games.
