Sold-out stadiums, tournaments lasting hours and bonuses in the millions: eSports has now entered mainstream society. But eSports is not child’s play: Scientists from the German Sport University (SPoHo) have found out that e-athletes are exposed to similar physical and psychological stress that traditional athletes experience during competitions.
eSports is like a Formula 1 race.
The cortisol levels of e-athletes during a tournament is about the same as that of a racing driver. The pulse rate of the players is usually very high, often between 160 and 180 beats per minute. And yet, many e-athletes aren’t trained enough professionally to handle this type of stress.
