ESports = CSGO

[GoZone]

Why is this always the case?

[Moonzy]

E-sports is just any competitive games

CS:GO is one of em

DOTA is one of em

Starcraft is one of em

Dragon Nest is one of em

 

as long as its competitive and people like to watch other players play (like sports) then its e-sports i guess

[QueenDemetria]

Its not, just look at the coverage LoL and Dota get, and remember WoW?

[GoZone]

Hmmm.... True

Call of Duty is also an E-sport, what point are you trying to make here?

Well the Major that just happened (MLG Columbus) had a $1,000,000 prize pool plus 1.2 million~ people watched the final so...

Dota has the most valuable esports scene thanks to valve, and it's 19 million dollar prize pools (almost 10x what LoL has)

LoL has a massive following in the esports scene, easily double what csgo has.

 

90% of the time, when I hear people talking about esports, its generally about LoL, which kinda makes me sad, since dota is the clearly superior game.

Although CS:GO is my favourite E-sport heavy game, that is not true, that's just 8 year olds who stole their mother's CC to buy skins...

CoD isn't as bad as it seems. As a 5 year CS GO veteran I approve of CoD BO3, a game that I invest a considerable amount of time into

It can be worse. It depends on what your rank is, and these kids are starting to fill up esea/faceit/cevo.

CS GO hasn't been out for more than 4 years.

Is it really needed to list EVERY competitive game ever to point out that esports doesn't automaticly mean CSGO? I can play that too. Starting with Hearthstone going through all fighting games and ending to fps with minor player base (like TF2 and QL ).

And Astralis and Liquid both choked in the semis :'( Liquid should have won both games but they choked so hard when they were 1 round away...
