GAMING IN BRAZIL

For what i have seen in this champions, Most of the brazilian players are white ( not being racist, just curious). Dont the dark skinned people play video games, coz they make up the majority of the population. ( just above 50%. correct me if im wrong)

most of non white and asian people in Brazil are poor, they play cheap mobile games like Free Fire

you're wrong

that happens in league too, most pro players are white and there are many reasons for that

Race is complicated in Brazil, a lot of people identify themselves as a mix of black and white
A lot of pros might view themselves as mulatto

For more additional, identity-specific information about Brazil visit the Diversity & Inclusion Guides to Brazil. 211,715,973 (July 2020 est.) Ethnic groups: White 47.7%, Mulatto (mixed white and black) 43.1%, Black 7.6%, Asian 1.1%, indigenous 0.4% (2010 est.)

wait there are asians in brazil?

it's a mix of these statistics being somewhat overblown and money issue.

white people are richer in average, obviously, so they get computers and become pros. computers are too expensive here, HOWEVER... every black person has a cellphone, yet the mobile pros are also mostly white.

so yeah, it's a money issue, but the statistics are really overblown and propagated throughout every place..

Historically in Brazil black people have always had little access to computers and video games, I am black and I have always had access to both, but other black people in my circle of friends and family did not have the same privilege.

To be Mulatto, you need a black and a white parent right?

There are 2 million Brazilians of Japanese descent.

yes, the largest japanese community outside of japan is in brazil if i'm not wrong

Brazil has every possible skin type, well diversified I would say, what really predominates are darker (mulatto and brown) are included, a little more than 50%, I think this is one of the reasons that there are not so many cases of racism in the Brazil comparing with other countries

Brazil is the country with the most Japanese outside of Japan and we also have a strong Chinese colony here.

Not necessarily, sometimes having black and white grandparents is enough.

yes, but even if you have black and white parents, you'll be considered white if you look white

The brazilian population is the most mixed race on the planet. We have white european people, asiatics, turkishs, arabics, africans and indigenous.

Mulatto is not a good word to refer to people with mixed races, I don't want to condemn you I'm just letting you know if you don't know.

Brazil's not located in africa mf, we are located in america, south america. over 100 years ago there was a big movement of japanese people who came to live here

1) black population doesn't have the same access to the technology due to money issues*
2) the same money issue make the person try to find some "real job" other than have the dedication to became pro
3) we have GTN, DGzin as pro players
4) the esport pro culture in Brazil isn't big, most of the old people don't think it's real and possible so they don't support their children. Because of that the dream of being a football player it's to big in our country.

*it's a simple way to talk about money issues, the issue it's too big to explain here

most of them immigrated to Brazil and USA in the WW2 era when Japan was poor

yep, I would say a lot of mulattos would be considered black in other countries

Here in Brazil, we have the most mixed race on the planet. The black people and some asiatics are more poor than the white people, so they play games like Free Fire or more accessible games like CrossFire, Zula and other free games. To build a low-end PC in Brazil, we need like 6/7 minimum wages just to buy the pieces for the PC, and adding the periferics and monitor, will increase to almost 10 minimum wages, meanwhile in NA and other countries u can build a high-end PC with way less money. That's a reason for why brazilians are so passionate about the teams comming to any international stage, because we know how hard we are training, how much we sacrifice just to be there. And that's why so many people don't liked the zombs trash talk, because the same jokes u can use between NA people, u can't use with BR people, we don't have the same opportunities.
