The eSports industry has reached new heights in the past decade and gone on to become a legitimate career option for passionate gamers. Minecraft, being one of the most popular cultural phenomenons in gaming, doesn't exactly seem like the game to lend itself to an eSports tournament. However, there have been more than one worldwide tournament in Minecraft.While there is no official league hosted by Mojang or Microsoft, that hasn't stopped independent tournaments from taking place all over the world. One of the most prominent competitions is the Minecraft Championship, hosted by Noxcrew.👑 Our MCC 8 winners are the PINK PARROTS 👑Congratulations to @DreamWasTaken, @Technothepig, @King_Burren, @Michaelmcchill 🔥They really brought home the bacon 🥓 pic.twitter.com/U6Hg2dvrvj— MC Championship (@MCChampionship_) August 15, 2020Minecraft Championship 8 recently concluded, and did amazingly well on streams on Twitch and other platforms.
