The Work in Esports Podcast – Episode 1 – Tyler “Artorigold” Bateman on content creation and overcoming challenges in esports

Tyler is a high level Overwatch player who also works in the esports industry. He has spent most of his time developing content over at Proguides.com – helping players improve at League of Legends, Overwatch, and Hearthstone. He also spent a few months at GameLeap. We worked together for a few years, so I thought it would make for a good first episode.

Some of the topics we cover:

– How he got started in the esports industry

– Working in a closet above a liquor store

– Tips on finding a job or creating your own

– New opportunities in the college esports scene

– Managing risk and personal sacrifice
