1. Esport is not sport because it does not have characteristics of
sports in terminological reasoning. A sport often has characteristics of requiring physical exertions, having health benefits etc. Esports are indeed recent inventions. Categorization in a terminological sense prevents Esports from being fit into the orthodox forms of sports. 2. Even if one assumes that chess which does not require physical exertion is considered as a sport, it is completely false since chess is only considered as a “strategy board game” in terminological standardisation. 3. Esport apologetics try to equate Esports with the traditional sports like football. In reality, Esports are too far from being considered as equally characterised with other “sports”. 4. Since Esports apologetics want to cross the border which is the equation with chess, one can’t even equate Esports which is not in a category of logical or strategical game, with chess which requires a significant strategy. 5. For these reasons, Esports are just recent inventions and can’t even be considered as some unorthodox form of sport. But rather, Esports are only online games.
