The problem with pro-gaming, is that it has always been built from the top-down. You cannot construct a building that way. From the PGL to modern-day IEM, esports organizations continue throwing money at the roof of a game, even though there is nothing between it and the ground-level. No matter how much money is thrown at constructing the top of the building, without support from below, it will never result in completion of the structure. Instead, it will only cause one collapse after another, as a top-floor without lower-level support will prove too heavy.
Esport's can be great, in that they fuse together the best elements of video-games and sports. If there is something from sports we should absolutely fuse with video-games, it is the bottom-up approach.
