Hello, I wanted to bring up a topic that maybe not everyone has heard about yet, Esports. Esports are essentially competitive video games. This has recently boomed to a massive industry in the last 10-20 years. If you haven't heard of it yet, I am sure you will soon. The basic structure of an Esports competition is two teams face-off against each other in the video game. These players are professional video gamers. They practice obscene hours in order to maintain top condition. Most of the video games that fall under the Esports realm are a mix between strategy and physical capabilities. In order to be at the top of their respective game, some of which have tens of millions of worldwide players, these professionals practice between 12 hours or more per day.
Obviously, there are some negative impacts about such a rigorous practice routine, especially when most of the games lack a certain amount of variety to avoid monotony. Many players suffer from health issues because of it, and recently the organization that house the players have taken a big step back to ensure that the player's mental safety is a priority. I wanted to ask for your opinions on this, especially people that are just hearing about it for the first time. How do you feel about Esports?
