In the 19th Asian Games, which has ended, e-sports events have become official events for the first time, and they are also the "top stream" in all competitions: so hot that they need to be limited to 2 million people to buy tickets. Behind the scenes, Ruijie Wireless served Hangzhou E-sports venue with reliable underlying network support services and intelligent operation and maintenance management platform, 7*24 hours high-energy escort E-sports, successfully experienced the test of Asian Games-level E-sports competition standard venues. Is eSports really that hot? What is the difference between eSports and traditional sports? What are the problems and secrets of ensuring the network of eSports Hall?

All over the country, all over the country have seized the highlands of the e-sports industry.

With the establishment of E-sports Week in the Olympic Games and the establishment of E-sports Committee by the International Olympic Committee, E-sports has become the official competitive event of Hangzhou Asian Games, and E-sports has gained more and more momentum in comprehensive international sports events. E-sports has become a new sector with great potential in national sports.

At the same time, it is also a gradually enriched "new cake." According to China E-sports Industry Report 2022, the scale of China's e-sports users will exceed 480 million in 2022, and the industrial revenue will exceed 144 billion yuan. Among them, offline ticket revenue is one of the main profit channels. Not limited to "top-flow" LPL, KPL and other events, domestic game competitions reach tens of thousands of games every year, attracting online and offline audiences and game players of all ages and cities at all levels: the advanced immersive experience effect of e-sports center not only belongs to the super-first-tier cities, but also the e-sports industry center and e-sports competition center are flourishing in Suzhou, Xi'an, Wuhan, Yantai and other cities at all levels all over the country. The Wugong Mountain Village E-sports Games in Pingxiang, Jiangxi Province and the "Village PL" competition in Guicheng Community, Nanhai, Foshan witnessed the upsurge of national e-sports.

The difference in esports: every millisecond of excellence and fairness is built on a reliable network

Under the upsurge, the continuous development of competitions and the continuous construction of venues have also exposed the differences between e-sports and other sports events. The fairness and splendor of e-sports far exceed the requirements of other sports events: the deployment of e-sports network includes the dedicated network for players on the competition platform, the audio communication network, the broadcast network, the network for distributing live broadcast platform push stream, the office network of staff, etc.

Fairness is the premise of sports competition. Millisecond fluctuations and failures in the network in e-sports may lead to problems in the game. At the 2022 League of Legends Midseason Championship in South Korea, Chinese RNG teams participating remotely were judged to have lower network latency than their opponents because the network latency at the competition venue was higher than expected by 35 ms. According to the official judgment, the RNG team in the advantage replayed the game, raising public doubts about the fairness of the game. But this isn't the first world-class event to be questioned about fairness because of network problems. Since the birth of e-sports competitions, the unfair shadow brought by "network" has been lingering. A stable and efficient network is the foundation for fairness in eSports. This puts forward strict requirements for the player network and audio communication network of the arena.

In addition to competitors, improving the audience experience also requires a stable and robust network. The current live event distribution platform is extensive, ensuring that viewers in front of the screen can see real-time, stable, high-definition games and commentary.
