    Back in my day, the quantity of players in Esports matches were either 1 v 1, 2 v 2 or 5 v 5. But nowadays, with the introduction of the Battle Royale genre, some Esports competitions can have up to 100 players. Such a large amount of players requires an equally large-sized stage to host them all, and this is where in fact the OGN Super Arena comes in. Together with allowing 500 spectators in, the OGN Super Arena has room for 100 competitors. This arena is perfect for games like PUBG, Fortnite or Call of Duty Blackout.
