How do you look after mental health in esports where the grind to perform is the standard?

On 2 December, Réka Burján, @MatthewJWatson, and I from the G2 Performance Lab are speaking at the Mental Health in Esports Conference in Brussels.

Since launching the lab this year, we've been busy behind the scenes, from developing our coaches to how we prepare our players. We've also doubled down on mental health and performance, bringing two more sport psychology experts into G2 to run workshops on mental skills, emotion regulation, and sleep.

In Brussels, we’ll share what we’re learning about player development, coaching and healthier esports environments.

Come join us in Brussels! 🇧🇪
🎟️ Free to attend. Register: …ntal-health-conference.eventbrite.com

Super grateful for the response to this 🙌

Really nice to see a mix of current and former coaches involved and range of games represented

Still time to add your perspective – every response helps improve the research

Coaches! 👋

I’m trying to build a better picture of well-being and motivation in esports coaches, including why you're involved, what makes the job harder and what helps

Share your view in this online survey for current and former coaches aged 18+! 🙏🫶

KC Zeph 🇫🇷: "At MSI we relied too much on each other — so we decided to cut [part of] the communication in scrims"

Back in Berlin after a relentless run, KC's assistant coach sat down with us for a LONG talk:

- What went wrong at MSI
- The radical scrim changes since then
- The draft dynamic with Reapered
- The emotional high of finally beating T1
- Why KC can adapt to any meta by Worlds
