Nah, can't compare it to physical sports. It's a game, a really competitive one, but calling it a sport is a stretch.

Totally! CS:GO is definitely a sport, just not in the traditional sense like soccer or basketball. It's more of an esports, which means it's played competitively online and involves teams, strategies, and skills. The level of teamwork, practice, and tactical thinking required can rival those of physical sports, plus it's got a huge following and professional tournaments with massive prize pools. So, yeah, it's a sport in the digital realm!

Yes, CS:GO is considered an esport, which is a form of sport competition using video games. It has professional teams, leagues, and international tournaments, similar to traditional sports. Plus, the skills required for top-level play – strategy, coordination, and reaction time – are as demanding as those in physical sports. So in the context of esports, CS:GO is definitely a sport.
