Esports and high performance human-computer interaction are on the forefrontof applying new hardware and software technologies in practice. Despite that,there is a paucity of research on how semi-professional and professionalchampionship level players approach aspects of their preparation.  To address that, we have performed, transcribed, and analyzed interviews withtop-tournament players, coaches, and managers across multiple game titles. Theinterviews range from competitive events occuring between 2015-2020. Initialprocessing included transcription and manual verification. The pre-processedinterview data were then organized and structured into relevant categories,touching on psychological, physical, and nutritional aspects of esportspreparation. Further, where applicable, interview responses where rated andquantified via consensus judgement by a panel of experts.  The results indicate that physical training was most often mentioned as arelevant or consistent activity, while nutrition was indicated as relativelyunimportant. Qualitative analysis also indicated that consistency andresiliency were noted as the most key factors recommended for upcoming esportscompetitors. It is also clear that many players put emphasis on balancing theirgameplay time and with activities. Lastly, we identified important areas ofinquiry towards a deeper understanding of the mental and physical demands ofprofessional esports players.
