Informative speech on eSports.

I'm writing an informative speech about eSports talking about what eSports is and how eSports is growing. I am having trouble thinking of things to put down and finding sources. If any of you have ideas, suggestions or important details I should put down would be greatly appreciated. It is a 5-8 minute speech in case any of you were wondering. Thanks! =D

Growth of tournament prizes? the first big pro teams (SK gaming, 3D, Fnatic, MYM and such).. the starcraft 1 pro scene.. some impressive numbers such as the ones MLG often churn out on info graphics. The effect live-streams had. Main sponsors.

Just throwing words at you really. Good luck :).

have a look at the old tournaments, back when CPL was around, when prizes of $50,000 were big.

Fnatic is not really one of the first big pro teams.

Look back to the CPL days, CXG (only one year but it's worth the note, organizers ran with the money), WCG, ESWC.

Have a look at Direct TV's experiment league CGS. Now you can use the LGS as a succesful example.

We've made it very far....
