Summary: "I'm a pro gamer." That's just what you say to justify all that time spent playing League of Legends, when your mom or partner asks, right? Not so says Battlefy's Jason Xu.

Tens of millions of worldwide television viewers. And this isn't just for Korean audiences. Leagues are sprouting up around the U.S. as well. Enter Battlefy, a platform that helps players organize tournaments of many styles.
