Competitive multiplayer games, usually team based. League of Legends, DOTA2, StarCraft II, that kind of thing.

Look at the amount of money and spectacle involve in the world finals of things like this and be amazed.

Look at this shit: regional teams with players payed full time (not just winning prize money).

Great, isn’t it?

Yeah, I was using “shit” in a very generic “thing I cannot be arsed to further identify” kind of way.

Here you go E Sports / Social // Drowned In Sound

Since this thread I must confess that I watched the Rocket League world championship…

they are completely baffling to me

Why?

I can’t imagine ever watching them myself, but that’s the same for many sports.
