Hi, I am a junior in highschool who is currently working on a rhetorical speech to recite in front my class. I have been involved with E-sports since freshman year ever since I have been watching IdrA crush koreans at the GSL! One of the criteria for the project is to use two credible sources. This is where I need help as the only sites that provides statistics are progaming sites, which might be biased. Please post some links that are informational about E-sports (no wikipedia). I really want to show my classmates the potential and rising growth of the professional gaming scene.
Thanks

What point are you trying to make? It's hard to provide you with sources if you don't know what you are trying to say lol

I would guess maybe he is trying to persuade people to watch e-sports? Maybe he just needs general information that makes e-sports sound exciting and enticing.

I want to support professional gaming as an real profession or occupation, and to state reasons why it should become mainstream.

I'm a bit confused. I think you need to give us a thesis or some actual bullet points of abstract ideas rather than real world occurences for something like this. Well it would help me at least.
