PRO means professional. In this article, I am going to tell you how to become a pro player.
Secret no. 1 - Focus, perseverance and determination✔ :
We can surely say that these three are the pillars of competitive gaming. Gaming requires a lot of focus for the minute details which many people often miss. Perseverance comes to play when you have a bad day without a win. It's just a wakeup call to work harder and not to let yourself down. This leads to determination. When you are determined to achieve success and failure does not deter you, that is when you know you have what it takes to be a true pro gamer.
Secret no. 2 - Invest in Good Gaming Gears ✔:
For a pro gamer, good gaming gears are the same as finely sharpened weapons for a skilled warrior. Gaming gears include - Gaming mouse i.e. Mouse with multiple buttons that assist you with different abilities of your character of the game. Gaming Keyboard, where keys don't stick in between the games and they also come with a windows lock button so that your game doesn't get disturb if you press your windows key by mistake. Gaming Headphones, which provides high quality noise cancellation and crystal clear sound for you to focus more on your opponent's movements. Good processors and graphic cards and the basic requirements for any game. A good monitor with high refresh rate, which offers good FPS (Frames per second) which gives you a better view and a smooth gameplay. A good internet connection is also required to compete with the enemy because a high ping may cause lag and can ruin the whole gameplay.
Secret no. 3 - Practice, practice and practice ✔:
Practicing daily can help you improve a lot. A normal player dedicates 8-10 hours for gaming because he wants to play for fun but a pro gamer dedicates many hours to grind because he not only plays for fun he plays to compete at the top tier. So, a dedication of many hours has to be invested. A player can only focus when he has good health, so to compete for pro plays, exercise and maintaining your body physically and mentally is must.

Joining different communities is a good way to earn recognition for your gameplays. Share your recordings. Platforms like YouTube, Discord, Twitch, etc. are some of the live streaming platforms where you can share your gameplay and see others as well. You can also play games with those community members and communicate with them using applications like discord, etc.
Secret no. 5 - Participate in competitive gaming ✔:
Competitive gaming is the final step on a path to be a pro gamer. Playing competitive games not only improves one’s coordination but also sharpens their skills and senses. This combined with the hours put in when practicing can work wonders. Competitive gaming requires a person to invest themselves and not worry about the consequences. Playing with other pro players clears your mindset and helps you correct your mistakes. It builds a healthy community where such gamers join and help each grow either as opponents or as teammates.
