No, that is a separate movie based on Zoe's memoir. There will, however, be some toxic male team that gets dunked on by the girls.

No way, he probably made 10-15 millions from LoL, dude's got multi-million dollar contracts and has been streaming with 10k+ viewers for majority of the decade. It's just a hobby/fetish for him even though i won't be surprised if he comes out eventually.

doesn't matter how it started. the amount of money in esports now means it has to be taken seriously. especially in China.

Reminder esports don't exist. These are games, not sports. Things don't need to be sports to have competitive legitimacy

The high salaries for players is only in the last few years, definitely not over most of his career. Sure his streaming would have helped but the money is not as much as you would think. Remember on Twitch Amazon take a 50% cut of the subs and then there are taxes. iirc even 1000 subs only earns the streamer around $2k a month. That is far less than an average salary.

So then by your definition Basketball, Baseball and Football are all just games too?

>Pitch perfect but E-sports
>starring Ellen Page
There's a couple of key differences here. One is that Pitch Perfect was about acappella which is a girls thing mostly anyways. There was some lighthearted gender conflict with the male group, but it was done kindly basically. The second is the girls were all pretty hot.

This one is E-sports - which is a male pursuit, and it's got fugly lesbian Ellen Page so it's going to be all about shitting on the male teams and how GURLS RAWK VIDYA. It's not going to be lighthearted and fun, it's going to be mean spirited.

Money is one thing. It doesn't have any longevity. You can't guarantee to anyone that in 10 years there still be LoL or Dota2. While, for example Chess and such will easily stick around and will be a valid carreer choice for kids, "esports" is just a fickle thing where companies dump money and forget after a few months and years.

How are they not games?

> It doesn't have any longevity.
Not true. The gaming industry is now bigger than Hollywood. Entire generations have now grown up playing games so it is natural to them to watch them as spectators. Why do you think Twitch has become so successful? Sure some games may die out but new ones will come along and esports is here to stay and almost certainly grow.

Brood War is going strong in year 23

They'll force it they don't care *cough* queens gambit *cough*

Didn't she rape Rainn Wilson in Super

Let's say you have a kid and want him to be an esport talent. If you've watched any esports, you know that there's very little crossover between games, so even with like Quake Live and Quake Champions, not many pros can adapt to both. And those are the same games. LoL -> Dota and vice versa, no way. What game would you have your kid play so that he can be successful? What if the game of his choice die and all his hard work just vanishes and he can't adapt to new games? (Pubg vs Warzone for example).

My whole point is, the money is there, the viewership is there, but not the games with lasting (20+ years) potential. I guess for the 15yo zoomie, it doesn't matter if he watches Fortnite or Warzone as long as its esports XDDD. You can't call somethings sports where there's no staying power (and before you write it for the 3rd time, I'm not talking about Esports in general, but individual titles).

Egames doesn't have a ring to it tho

They built a $50 million, 3,500 seat Overwatch stadium in Philadelphia which seems like the worst fuckin idea in the world

>buzzfeed studios
I'm sorry. What?

I highly doubt it's just for Overwatch user.

In principle there is nothing wrong with building a stadium. The problem is its for Overwatch. An awful game to spectate with no longevity. Blizzard are laughing all the way to the bank with money all those teams paid to get a franchise slot.

There are plenty of pro-gamers that have switched games. Dota/Hots to LoL like you mentions. Hell even Starcraft pros have moved onto other completely different games. It's like any career. If you pick the wrong place to work you can only blame yourself.
