BGMI Pro Scout Comments on the Lack of Official Updates Around Game’s Unban
In a recent livestream, Scout said,
“I think these days, Instagram pages are much more connected with BGMI officials out there, so they can easily tell you when the game’s coming. But kids like us, who stream on a regular basis, they themselves don’t know when the game’s coming.”
He further went on to give a “reality check” about a disparity in earning that has emerged because of this.
“If you’re a top-level player, you are earning well. But what about the Tier-1 [city] people who are still grinding and not there yet? Many of them are good players, but not every org has an infinite flow of money.”
Players ran out of money to contribute to pool for custom matches, says Scout
Scout also shared how a group of players organised a scrim with Upthrust Esports, where they decided to pool in the money themselves. Upthrust Esports would organise custom matches for them, while the players would take care of the money, and reward it to the winner at the end of the scrim.
“After a month or two, the players had no money left to contribute to the pool. This is the reality, because for a lot of esports, they would have to end up giving 1000 to 2000 rupees every four days. This amounts to a total of 10000 rupees minimum each month. Now this is the reality that 1000 rupees is not a small amount. So, we stopped playing with Upthrust Esports because we couldn’t manage the money.”
He concluded the story on a retrospective note, wondering if this is the situation in only a month or so, how might things end up for the players as more time passes?
While Krafton is yet to officially announce the return of BGMI unban, players and managers of esports organisations have been teasing the unban for some time now. The latest was from Global Esports CEO Rushindra Sinha, who tweeted that he came across the “biggest news about BGMI’s return.”
