Recently, Taiwanese media reported that in order to encourage the development of the e-sports industry, Taiwan's cultural authorities announced the "Regulations on the Selection of Alternative Servicemen for Cultural Awards and E-sports Specialty Categories". The regulations stated that 10 places will be provided for exemption from military service, five for each male who was born around 1993.

e-sports is developing rapidly around the world, many world-renowned e-sports stars have been born, such as Faker, Jumping Blade, Coldzera, etc. These highly skilled players have performed wonderful games for the audience in different e-sports events.

However, in some areas, men must serve in the military when they reach a certain age, and the age of military service also happens to be the peak period of players. Many players who are expected to dominate an era of e-sports have interrupted their career paths early because of military service. However, e-sports skills require continuous practice, and a slight laxity will affect the competitive state. Therefore, although many e-sports players return to the game after military service, most of them are not as good as before.

For example, Park Changjun, the early leader of Korean e-sports, was the first professional e-sports player in South Korea. He was forced to serve in the military during his peak period. Although he wanted to return to the game later, his skills were not as good as before, so he quietly chose to retire.

This time the Taiwanese authorities have introduced a new policy on military service, and for e-sports players, we can already see the development trend of e-sports in Taiwan. In recent years, the scale and influence of Taiwan League of Legends and other competitions have also increased rapidly. In the 2017 League of Legends Global Finals, the LMS division of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan also added a new entry quota due to factors such as influence and event quality. It remains to be seen whether the military service system for e-sports players introduced by the Taiwan authorities will significantly improve the development of the local e-sports industry.
