At MLG Anaheim, I was on the ultimate quest to become the premiere ESPORTS live events selfie photojournalist. For any aspiring esports selfie photojournalists, I present a list of tips for capturing great selfies at your next esports event to provide the Internet with groundbreaking selfie coverage.

1) Get your champion selfies before championship Sunday.

You might not get the chance if they happen to win it all.

2) Use Snapchat to take your selfie game to the next level
[image loading]
Journalists have to adapt to the times. SnapChat is all the range among the "kids these days".

[image loading]
Don't be a casual, level up your selfies!

3) Always selfie with Suppy
[image loading]
If you went to an ESPORTS event and didn't take a selfie, did the event happen at all?

4) Be sure to pose and capture your "good side".
[image loading]
Pro-tip from Joshy - you need to take a selfie from a higher angle.

[image loading]
Or you just gotta be a natural pro like Jacqueline.

[image loading]
Like Travis, some people have their pose refined after years of practice.

5) Lighting is everything
[image loading]
A great selfie with Incontrol turned dark. Be aware that the lighting at most esports events is terribly dark.

[image loading]
Try to use some of the background lights to your advantage. It helped in taking this selfie with JP!

6) Take group selfies for insane selfie value!

Crazy value selfie!

TLO, Hero, and Leenock! Love all these players!

Stephanie and Smix, actually my final selfie of the event.

7) Picture in picture selfies make sure you can capture your favorite moments with your friends.

SELFIE IS TOO HIGH LEVEL with the Blizzard esports team!

AND FINALLY THE ULTIMATE SELFIE PRO-TIP

8) Always remember to smile big!
