Judge’s verdict

Judge’s reasoning

The clash centered on whether physical exertion defines an Olympic sport. Pro argued that esports involve extensive training, international competition, and massive audiences, expanding the definition of sport, while Con limited the definition to physical limits, offering no counter‑evidence. Pro’s broader criteria and relevance to modern sport made the case more persuasive.

I'm going to go to the Olympics.

Guest

Let’s be honest, esports should be in the Olympics. Millions of people watch it, players train for years, there are international competitions — so what exactly is stopping it?

Guest-h/wF

What’s stopping it? The fact that you’re sitting on a chair playing a video game!

Guest

Oh, so sitting means it isn't a sport now?

Guest-h/wF

For the Olympics? Pretty much! The Olympics are about athletes pushing their physical limits. You’re comparing running 100 metres with pressing buttons on a keyboard.
