Therefore, being a professional gamer is not all about sitting on the gaming chair and enjoying video games throughout the day. As a PUBG enthusiast and a Computer Science student, fantasizing about a professional player means a lot more than just gaming.

Training and Practice: Quite a number of hours in a day are devoted to practice for a professional gamer. It encompasses not only the actual playing of PUBG but also watching correlated videos, studying strategies and, of course, meaningful the patches and metas, Repetition helps one to be perfect and regularity allows one to stay active.

Physical and Mental Fitness: This goes a long way in ensuring that one’s body is fit for those long hours of gaming activity. The last aspect of professional gamers’ daily schedule is in-shape training and balanced diet to support health. Mental health is also important; how to manage stress with activities other than gaming to avoid developing burnout.

Community Engagement: Sharing information with other gamers is one of the critical aspects of the life of a professional gamer. This comprises of streaming gameplay on Twitch, replying to fans on social media, and playing in tournaments. Having a brand and being an active member of the community might help in getting sponsorships and job opportunities.

Balancing Studies: In the case of a BS Computer Science student, being a student and having a professional gaming career is feasible but it is challenging. Awareness of game approaches is useful in enhancing analytical ability and discipline from academic actions while skills on time management from gaming will be useful in managing the studies.
