How Do E-Athletes Compare To Real Athletes?

We feel horrible about the e-sports tragedy today. This video was scheduled a week in advance because I am moving for a few days. There is no correlation.

You're comparing the e-sports final with the super bowl. compare it with the FIFA world cup. Billions vs 70 million.

game tournaments looks very weird comparing to normal sports

If theres nothing wrong with you, and if you really want to and dedicate yourself, and stride for it, then you should be able to be good at both.

Why don't just try to be successful at both, i know people who are successful at both.

Its more popular than i thought. But the question is still, if e sports is a real sport. For me, a sport should be physically exhausting and press some buttons definitely isn’t.

E-athletes aren‘t real atheletes because there has to be physical and mental exercise. Gaming only checks one of those things.

I definitely do not think, that e-sports are anything like the same as normal sports. Real sports are more than just move your hands or arms.

muscle memory

It is a nice video with good Graphics and Informations! Thanks for explaining the difference between regularl sport and e-sports! :D

bro saying esports is more difficult than "regular"
sports is insane 😂

Gaming will never be an official sport, all an online thing

optc?? they kinda mid ngl

Mobile legends e sports competition is my favourite 😂❤😊🎉

e sports isnt a real sport. people just call it a sport cause they are too lazy to go outside and play actual sports

Compared to real sports, unfortunately, all the hours spent by esports athletes aren't real experiences, but illusions of the mind, made to feel real by holding something physical like a mouse or controller.

the difference is like 100 lbs ... eating in your parents' basement is not exercise ... dude ... real athletes really exercise like moving real muscles not pushing buttons

No. They are not real athletes. They are competitors.

well if we are talking reaction time ping pong is prolly harder nglllll

Neurodivergence is a big difference

This is just sad, like video games are now a “sport”, this takes away from all of the hard work of an actual athlete who physically works hard and has a ton of mental stress. I mean imagine having a 4 million dollar contract or something and you have to deliver your best because if you don’t your cut. Smh it’s sad that this is what we consider a “sport” these days and I’m not even an athlete

The only e sports I watch is sim racing, it’s the same as real life racing but online, and a lot for the competitors are also real drivers

We should have an updated version of this now in 2023

They don’t

Some of this didn’t age well

e sports are not real sports as you just sit in front of a coumpeter it does't demand any physical skills and football,hockey,baseball,basketball are real sports

"esports" arent real sports

It’s not a sport

The term "e-athletes" is a joke and should not exist, these are competitive gamers.

lol my school linked this

gaty

Just imagining how many hours behind a screen these "e-athletes" spend, it just gives me a headache.
I mean I have nothing against videogames, but this is is just extremw

One is an athlete one is not stop the bull💩
Sad world we live in encouraging kids to stay inside instead of going outside n being active n shedding pounds frm eating foods that aren't good

Video gamers don't achieve 160bpm, stop lying! I played Call of Duty for 3 hours and my BPM only hit 60! Get outside and actually exercise.

I just hope that in the future years, E-Athletes won't earn more money than Real Athletes do

The problem with esports is not if they are not sports or not. That's irrelevant the problem is that they are not "insert videogame name here" fédération that standarizes and sets the rules for each videogame.
Communities may do it but again That's a consensus not a set of rules from a governing body.

Its like comparing ninja to shaq

Call of duty league

Esports aren't sports in the traditional sense....Cuz they are "E" Sports which stands for electronic sports. They are similar and comparable to sports the only thing is that esports load on cognition and sports load on physicality. Now i wouldn't consider E sports players athletes in the the traditional sense i would consider them "E' athletes electronic athletes that play electronic sports. Video games have become a sport because now that they are actually legitimately competitive there is almost no difference between video games and actual sports. Same with chess tbh

E sports = obese
Sports = fit

E-athlete is an oxymoron.

Games are cool and all but calling it esports is just an insult to real sports 😧

A sport by definition, is "a activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others" most video games don't involve physical activity, and yes, I do play video games.

I like trains

I not kno wot he say becoz I no gud englis but butiful cartoon for my childs👍🏽

There is a huge difference between e-sorts and normal sports so tbh I don’t think That u can really count that as a normal sport. I get why people think that because of practicing concenstrations and stuff but honestly it ain‘t a real sport for me

Like a wise jedi once said:
Not about phyical activity sports is, your brain you must use hmmm.

I think that e-sports should be considered a real sport, because even chess is considered a sport lol. The video has even shown us that e-sports are much more exhausting than "real" ones + both have some kind of team play included. Let's not forget the fact that e-sports are as strategic, if not even more than regular sports. Please dear society, normalise thinking that e-sports are real sports <3. We have seen how much the popularity of it has grown the past few years and it will continue to grow even more.
