N-Gen – Episode 2

Edward “N-Gen15” Cachia was Level Academy’s guest for their second episode. If you’re not aware of who N-Gen is, he is a streamer, educator, as well as a broadcast producer. The main topic for this episode was live streaming and what it takes to make it full-time. Here he is emphasising that to make it into the big leagues when it comes to streaming, you will have to make certain sacrifices to dedicate the energy and the hours.

N-Gen goes on to say that working full-time as a streamer is not easy. It takes time, and it becomes harder over time, which might result in a burn-out at some point.

Forecast Panda – Episode 3

Episode 3, which is the latest episode at the time of writing, features a local streamer for Diabol, Michael “Forecast Panda” Vinnie Caruana. Panda is a competitive Tekken player, and is one of the top figures when it comes to streamers in Malta.

In the episode he describes that Level Academy has made a huge impact on himself. He states that Level Academy is a step forward for Esports in Malta. It is continuously evolving the whole scene, and pushing the competitive scene a step further. Panda also adds that the Academy has given him and many others loads of opportunities with regards to esports locally, and internationally.

This is certainly another great initiative from Level Academy, and we cannot wait to see the rest of the guest lineups, throughout the season!
