Abstract
eSports is video gaming where individual players or teams oppose their physical, psychological and emotional conditions in the game context to achieve a specific goal by the end of the game. However, neither players nor teams have been studied in real scenarios. In this paper, we report on the deployment of sensing system for collecting a player biometric data (a computer mouse and keyboard), voice data, and heart rate in an eSports ‘Team Fortress 2’ tournament. Upon the data analysis we demonstrate that an increased heart rate has a negative impact on the player performance. At the same time, successful teams communicate more during the game. Moreover, team communication in positive tone has a positive contribution in the overall team performance.
