In-Game Leader aka IGL is one of the most important and responsible roles in BGMI or any other esport as well. The IGL of the team is responsible with reading other teams gameplays, styles, strategies and do the map-reading, create rotation strategies etc to lead the squad to an advantageous position in the map and take out the best from them. We’ve seen some great IGLs leading their teams to impossible match wins as well as leading them against top teams from across the globe. We’re going to talk about a few IGLs from BGMI.
