　The workshops had three types of workshops: e -sports match with professional gamers, VR experiences using HTC's high -performance VR HMD "VIVE", and video card replacement experiences, and was divided into two rooms.

　Among them, the most popular is E -Sports.In this battle, the famous professional gamer "YAMATON" belonging to Detonator can play against the popular game "Overwatch". Students who remember the skills of the game gathered and fought with YAMATON.Some of the students of the "General Professional Gamer" who are aiming to be a professional gamer, and some players have won YAMATON.The match was held in the game room, but high -performance gaming PCs and gaming devices are lined up in the room, which will be the best environment for students aiming for the e -sports industry.

　At the VR experience corner, two sets of HTC "Vive" were prepared, and we were able to experience three types of games in all.The PCs used were MSI's gaming PCs "AEGIS" and "Vortex G65", and the former was still unreleased in Japan and was developed as the optimal product for VR systems.It was popular because I was able to experience a high -end VR system that I could hardly experience.

　The lecture for this event was divided into three periods, and the first period was a lecture by Progming Team Detonator, Masaru Ejiri.

　After talking about his career, Ejiri first sent a sincere advice to the professional gamers and young people who aim for the e -sports industry.What I want to convey to young people in particular is, "Watch out for adults who are approaching good stories. Foster the eyes to see people."He said, "and said," being able to talk about people properly. "At the end of the lecture, there was a time for questions and answers, and participants asked various questions.

Mr. Kato and Mr. Takahashi share and give lectures on gaming PCs.

　In the second period, technical writer Katsuaki Kato gave a lecture entitled "If you become a professional, you want to know, the contents and mechanism of the gaming PC -PC edition."For the second and third periods, we plan to introduce the contents of presentations in detail in another article, so here is a brief introduction.

　Mr. Kato first explained the definition of a gaming PC and explained the benefits of gaming PC professional gamers.He revealed which part is important in the PC specifications, and explained the required video card classes, giving specific gaming names.

　In the third period, Toshiya Takahashi, a technical writer, gave a lecture entitled "If you become a professional, you want to know, the contents and mechanisms of the gaming PC -parts edition."

　Mr. Takahashi first explained the definition of his own PC and his merits and disadvantages, and asked the participants how they had their own PC's self -made experience, and about 10 people raised their hands.There seemed to be more self -made than expected, and Takahashi was a little surprised.Later, he explained specifications that are important on gaming PCs and recommended products for each main part, such as CPU, motherboard, and video cards.At the end of the lecture, Takahashi explained that even after retiring from a professional gamer, there were various roads beyond.

　After the workshop, the Otasomi Janken Tournament was held, and one of the surviving people was given a gorgeous prize provided by MSI.

　After the end of the event, when I asked the participants, "I already knew it, but the explanation of those who knew the latest situation in the industry was easy to understand and became useful" (current student).The story of the Detonator national team was interesting (current student), "I was happy to be able to play against a famous professional gamer" (current student), "It was a little difficult, but I learned" (high school student).It is returned and the participants seemed to have high satisfaction.

　These events are a very unique attempt, but it seems to be a very meaningful event for current students and high school students who are interested in the E-Sports Professional Gamer World Course.
