They are just like other bars, except instead of watching a La Liga bout, you can watch League of Legends. It\u2019s just like any other social place where you can have fun with friends and meet people with similar interests. And in this case, if you waste your life sitting at a bar, you can always find another one and restart the game!<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_17 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-grey\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class=\"ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1\"><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/e-sports-barcelona\/#What_exactly_are_E-Sports\" title=\"What exactly are E-Sports?\">What exactly are E-Sports?<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/e-sports-barcelona\/#Where_can_I_play_or_watch_them_in_Barcelona\" title=\"Where can I play or watch them in Barcelona?\">Where can I play or watch them in Barcelona?<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/e-sports-barcelona\/#Afterlife\" title=\"Afterlife\">Afterlife<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/e-sports-barcelona\/#Blitzbar\" title=\"Blitzbar\">Blitzbar<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_exactly_are_E-Sports\"><\/span>What exactly are E-Sports?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With the advance of technology, video games became even more popular than they already were as a form of entertainment.

This generated more and more interest in competitive gaming.
