Do's And Don'ts Of Hosting Gaming Tournaments

Event Company Singapore: Given the current popularity of video games, there’s a lucrative opportunity in running gaming events such as tournaments. Of course, executing a successful tournament isn’t simply a matter of inviting a few players, throwing down some brackets and handing out a shiny trophy. Here are several Do’s and Don’ts for event managers looking to host video game tournaments.:

Understand the game you're hosting

If you’re keen on hosting a video game tournament, you need to make sure you have at least a rudimentary understanding of the game your guests are going to be playing. It’s not enough to simply hire a few judges and call it a day. You need to know enough about the game that you can step in when there’s a problem.

Don't assume every game plays the same

Not every video game is played the same way, which is why a tournament’s structure and requirements will vary from game to game. A game like Street Fighter, for instance, will feature two contestants going head-to-head, and won’t require an Internet connection. On the other hand, first-person shooters like Call of Duty may feature teams; titles such as League of Legends will require an active network connection in order to function.

Do hire top-notch announcers

In the growing competitive gaming industry, there are a few well-known announcers that specialise in providing colour commentary for different games. Depending on your budget and how large your event is, it might be worth hiring a top-tier announcer that is relatively popular and could get more people in seats. It could give your tournament exactly the visibility it needs.

Don't forget to get sponsors

While there are certain tournaments that are perfectly acceptable to run on your own, video game tournaments are not among them unfortunately. In this case, you might want to invite a few vendors, hardware partners, and/or sponsors to lend you a hand. A large competition can be costly, but there’s also the cost of lost opportunity if you don’t enlist the collaboration of others especially top-tier sponsors that can give your tournament a huge boost.
