While this is exciting, I hope organizers also focus on player well-being. These tournaments require insane practice hours - need proper breaks, mental health support and career guidance for young players. Otherwise it's just exploitation in glamorous packaging.

As an expat living in Bengaluru, I'm amazed how quickly India's esports scene is growing! The infrastructure and fan engagement here rivals many Western tournaments now. Rooting for GENESIS ESPORTS - their teamwork is next level!

Good move but government should reduce GST on gaming hardware. How will players compete globally when gaming PCs/phones cost 30% more here? Develop ecosystem properly na!

My son is so excited for this! Though I don't understand much about gaming, seeing his eyes light up explaining the strategies makes me happy. Maybe this generation's cricket is mobile gaming? 🤔
