AI in Esports Spectating

With esports becoming more popular around the world, AI applications are improving the fans’ experience in new and exciting ways. With analytics and custom fan feeds, AI is changing the dynamics of esports for fans and extending its impact toward an overall more engaging and fan-oriented experience.

For instance, during *a League of Legends* match, AI can reveal people’s statistics, predict possible results, and indicate important moments in a game. This also becomes advantageous to casual as well as die-hard fans since there is additional depth they can know about to find the experience more interesting and enlightening. 

 

Personalized Viewing Experiences

With the help of AI, a user’s behavior and interests can be identified, and, therefore, the players, teams, or matches that are most relevant and interesting for the viewer can be suggested. Services like Twitch and YouTube already have an AI recommendation system in place but in esports, such tech has moved to the next level recommending live streams. The ability to get personalized commentary, follow your favorite players, or keep track of elements of a game is due to the use of AI.

Also, AI makes the event more transparent, and spectators can watch the, often, high-velocity events characteristic of esports. This enhancement in visuals does make the webpage more appealing thus garnering a wider audience that includes believers of the game but have scarce understanding of how it works.
