e-Sports CR
Overview
This project was made for E-Sports, a costarrican company that is looking to promote videogames in a professional way, besides organize professional tournaments and championships national and internationally, with the main goal to put local players into the higher spheres of the scene.
My role
For this project, as an UI&UX, I was in charge to develop a web page that not only could promote video games in a professional – sport way, but also can be used in mobile phones as well as in desktop computers, it has to be modern- dynamic and could gather more and more followers.
The challenge
The main challenge was to start everything from scratch, had to define the main goal of the web page, and to fulfill the purposes of the page itself.
Define a color palette, an attractive but modern design for all the videogame followers, since this is still a rising career in Costa Rica, it has to look professional.
They also wanted the followers to have access to all the championship dates, news, scores but also team information, team members, gear and products of each one.
The solution
Create new content, updated news, keep scores and history of videogames.
Have access to a personal profile where you can select your favorite teams and subscribe to all the news and latest notifications, available products and main events.
With the end to promote national teams, create a landing page for each team and individual player. You can also access the store with personalized products of each team.
I created a gallery with all the latest news, but you can also go to the news landing page where you can find the last 3 days of news.
Also you can view a score board with all the daily matches, daily updated no matter what.

All users can personalize they account, choosing which information or notification want to receive. Besides all the shop offers, and a custom email from e-Sport on your each festivity of the year (birthday, Christmas, new year).
Each user could choose to be a sponsor of the favorite team or team member.
Studied examples
In order to fully accomplish this project, it was necessary to visit a few sport webpages and make a research of the most attractive ideas, which sport has more followers, was the most followed or which one has more publicity over the others.
There were certain pages where for example color palette or precision desing was more user-friendly than others. A great example was Fox Sports, it’s desktop web page is more friendly user than mobile page. The mobile page has so much white on it, that is was really difficult to know where to go next, but it’s news page was visually really good.
