Video gaming is not a sport

I would firstly like to point out that I know what normal video gamers do. Maybe normal video gamers don't sit in a dark room 24/7 but I do know that most video gamers play on their PC/console for hours on end. I also know that professional video gamers probably do sit in a dark room with energy drinks when they supposedly "train". I too am a gamer but I love sports a whole lot more. To associate video games at the same level of a sport is somewhat insulting to all the real athletes in the world. Secondly I"d like to point out that I said that chess is a mind sport. That means that chess mainly focuses in the mental challenge more so than the physical challenge. Now don"t jump to conclusions that now video games can suddenly qualify for mind sports. Like I said before, video games take no skill or strategy. My opponent claims that he/she watches replays to improve himself/herself. That isn't strategy. Anyone can do that, what I was asking is if my opponent watched videos of the opposite team that he/she is going to play to narrow down the supposedly "plans" and "strategies" they have. I doubt that my opponent creates complex plans that have more than four parts to them which proves that video games do not have the amount of strategy that it takes to win at chess. Video games have only simple strategies that do not even qualify to be in a mind sport. Thirdly I'd like to ask how complicated your strategies are in CSGO. Are they really more complicated than "flanking the other team" or "setting up an ambush"? I doubt it otherwise my opponent would have backed his/her point with explaining one of these "complicated" strategies. I doubt that when you play CSGO that you're thinking "Oh, we have to set up a three pronged attack". My opponent obviously has a very odd way of playing video games. Fourthly I'd like to ask how playing against a professional CSGO player has anything to do with proving that video games require skill. If I played against a professional CSGO player I probably wouldn"t do very well but I'd still be able get a few kills. That's because the game is partly luck based. Now let"s have that professional CSGO player play some one on one field hockey with me. I would destroy him/her and he/her would never get a single goal because sports are not luck based. That's another difference between video games and sports. Now let's let this professional CSGO player play against a professional tennis player and the tennis player play CSGO. It would probably come out the same as with me. The tennis player would get some kills. Now let"s get on to the professional CSGO player playing tennis. With the supposedly "amazing reaction" skills that this professional CSGO player should have then it should be a no brainer that this'll be an even match right? No, not right, not even close. The professional CSGO player would only be able to look as the professional tennis player got ace after ace after ace. Voters, the difference between a sport and a video game is literally that the video game is the lazy version of sports. Video games are like a mod. You apply them to sports and suddenly sports are easy when all you"re doing is looking at a screen moving your fingers. Fifthly we have to draw a line between what"s a sport and what's not. Technically piano could qualify to be a sport if video games were allowed to be a sport. The piano takes a lot of mental focus and skill to be able to perform well. It is competitive and it has more physical exertion than video games. So why isn"t piano a sport? Because piano doesn"t have enough physical exertion to qualify just like video games. If we don't draw a line between what's a sport and what"s not then academics could be the next thing wanting to qualify as a sport.
