    I understand people who don’t think it’s a sport but I cannot understand people who say it requires no skill or is easy. It’s like chess, no it’s not a physical thing but it is very mentally challenging and takes extreme skill to become a champion. Gaming requires strategy, hand eye coordination, quick reflexes, teamwork, and a lot of practice. It’s the same as a sport but it’s with a controller. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

      the Olympics were made as a sort of mock battle to keep the nations from getting into real fights. as warfare has evolved to the point that we fly drones around to shoot missiles I think that esports has a compelling case to be included in the Olympics.

      @@themajormagers in my personal opinion i think the olympics should stay "physical" sports only. because most major esports games you need strategic planning and reflexes (LoL, Dota, COD, overwatch, etc (these are just the well knows ones, i know there are more))
      so if they would do like you said and only include these types of games, than you need to include min. 3-5 games at that point.
      i do think they should make a "esports" type of olympic, like different Esports games played in a single arena. this way i think esports will get a better name across the people that look down upon esports or just don't know it

      Chess may be part of the list of sports in the Olympics, it has its own biennial tournament and was never part of the Olympic games. If you're talking about the proposal to put it in the 2024 Olympics, they didn't even make the shortlist and is increasingly unlikely. Unless some news happened that I missed.
