In this guide we will go over what makes pro players so good and why they are able to compete at such a high level of play. Being a professional gamer may seem easy but it comes with a lot of stress and can be very difficult to achieve.

1) Time Invested

Let's face it. If you want to be a professionalism League of Legends player then you are going to need to invest a lot of time in it. The averages pro players play thousands upon thousands of games and are constantly playing and practicing. If you want to go pro you are going to need to play... a lot. There is a saying that it takes 10000 hours to master something and this definitely applys for League of Legends..

2) Dedication

If you want to compete at anything at the highest level it is going to take an insane amount of dedication. Although not every professional League player has the highest level of dedication, those who do tend to perform the best and win the most.

3) Near Perfect Mechanics

If you watch the pros play it is really a sight to be seen. There are masters of mechanics and know the game inside out. This comes from practice and it is really a feat that should be appreciated. This also plays into the time factor because it takes so long to obtain such a high level of mechanics.

4) Great Judgement

Pro players are great at making decisions in split seconds and this requires a lot of skill to do properly. Most people who play League of Legends are like chickens with their heads chopped off not knowing exactly what do do.

5) Team Synergy

This is key and most people overlook a pro players attitude and just focus on individual skill. A player can have all the talent in the world but it he is not willing to make sacrifices and listen to his team then he will never achieve greatness. The ideal goal of a professional team is having everyone working in together and knowing what do like it is almost second nature.

6) Talent

Although talent is not the most important aspect of a pro player in my opinion it is something you have to have in order to become pro. Some people, no matter how many games they play just don't have what it takes to become pro.

7) The Desire to Become Better

You have to want to be the best if you want to take it to the professional level. You have to realize your mistakes and learn from them to get better. If you constantly deny fault or accountability for you mistakes you will never get better.

8) A Positive Attitude

Some people overlook the power of attitude in many things in life. A positive attitude can be the difference between winning and losing in a lot situations. Players must be able to not get discouraged and keep a level head.

9) Taking the Game Seriously

Some pros fail to do this and it ends up leading to their demise. Once you become pro some people thing the journey is over but it has just begun. You must respect the game and other players and not get a big ego.

 

10) Keeping Healthy

This goes for mental and physical health. Players must take care of their mind and diet to perform at a top level. In professional games it is the small things that make a difference and lead to victory.
