From Zero To Hero: Hearthstone as a Career #1
Purpose and Intended Audience
You are:
a beginning or intermediate Hearthstone player looking to go pro and make an income from your passion, or
curious to learn more about professional gaming and understand the kind of steps involved and the commitment required, and how success is measured, or
an interested bystander following the successes and failures of one (at the time of writing) insignificant Hearthstone player
In this article I cover:
- Viability Research
- Revenue Streams
- Hearthstone vs Magic The Gathering vs Poker
- Goal Planning
- Reasons to Succeed and Fail
- Cyberbullying in eSports
- Study Resources
- Ranking Distribution
- Stat Tracking
- F2P or real money
- Quality of Life Impact
- How to compete with no cards
- My Results
- Income and Expenditure
I'm not a pro Hearthstone player as of yet, but I have played poker and Magic The Gathering competitively for money. I don't think such a guide has been published before for Hearthstone so I hope you enjoy it :)
