A word used by professional video games players in an attempt to justify and prove that playing video games is, in fact, sport. They do this in order to make themselves feel better for having been shit at real sports throughout their lives.
NOT A FUCKING SPORT. This might be confused for a sport because it has the word in it, but don't be tricked by this fucking bullshit. If you want a real sport play hockey, football, basketball, even fuckin soccer. This is a game for "nullers" which is a term for gamers that is offensive and/or derogatory. If you know a person who relies on gaming to make money FUCKING KILL THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!
