The champions and contenders in traditional sports, then, often seem almost superhuman, but not so in eSports. Professional gamers may preform superhuman feats in-game and have highly tuned reflexes, but they are normal people. There is no dissonance between the viewer and the player. Furthermore, the games being played are ones we can all play from the comfort of our homes and we can start at any age. You don’t need to start when you are 3 years old, you can start right now be it 15 or 60. This is precisely why eSports is growing so much in popularity. You can have the same experiences that you’re watching. There is nothing like it in the world.

If you have yet to watch a single eSports match or a single Twitch stream, I urge you to go and try it out. Relish every moment of what will soon be the world’s largest spectator sport and if its up to me and my team, the greatest spectator experience the world has ever seen.

(Edited: Wording describing American Football as the world’s largest spectator sport. It is not. A brain fart on my part)
