Research international tournaments related to that game.
- Check Eligibility and Requirements
Visit the official website of the tournament.
Look for age, region, skill level, and qualification requirements.
Some tournaments require prior ranking or qualifying rounds.

Watch past tournaments to understand strategies and meta-game trends.
Join a competitive team or hire a coach if necessary.
