They say those who can do, and those who can’t teach. However, Julien Gelinas is special in that before becoming the nursing program advisor and head e-sports coach at Long Island University, he was ranked number one out of 25 million league of legends players in North America. Under his alias, Zatsmod, his climb to the top won him a $50,000 cash prize and later earned him a spot to visit and defeat China’s best team on their own turf. In this hour long chat, we discuss what is E-Sports, what is it like to be the best at something, and if following your dreams is really worth it.
