Most importantly, national players such as SGS.Chawy and SGS.Harleluyar come here to compete with each other and on a regional scale in tournaments such as the Garena Premier League. If you were wondering why their names look weird, it is because that these are their in-game names (IGNs). This consists of the team they play for, like SGS and KLH, followed by a name of their choice, which they build their reputation upon.
There are also huge high definition screens allow many to spectate ongoing games live allowing for events every weekend where these national players come to Garena Stadium to play casual games and have meet and greet sessions with their fans.
If you are interested in e-sports after reading this, do check out Singapore's very own Garena Premier League at http://gpl.garena.com and while you're at it, why not 'jio' your friends along?
