Everyone feels bad when they lost money mate, so video games is not that a exception. But there could be some of us we really are into this kind of one on one games and they got a kick on playing against each other and beating them with money on the line. And this kind of games have evolved a lot since late 2019 if I'm not mistaken. As there are a lot of money right now, in millions, individuals or teams events and it's country vs country. And if I'm not mistaken, it has even been discussed if this kind of games could be considered sports or it could be included in the Olympics.

A very interesting point: e-sports Olympics would be really cool, and I believe that in the future, with greater popularization of this sports modality, it will be totally feasible. Here in my country (Brazil), we’ve even had video game tournaments broadcast on cable TV channels, meaning there is a market, and it is highly competitive and profitable. I think it’s just a matter of time before it’s truly recognized as a real sport, since it requires skill and a lot of training to stand out, just like a conventional sports athlete.

hmm..interesting

I’ve noticed that for games like Valorant, the skill ceiling is insanely high, so if you want to compete or just keep up with stronger players, it takes a lot of practice (and sometimes help). I remember hitting a plateau and getting really frustrated, so I tried a service like https://eloboss.net/valorant-boosting . Honestly, it gave me the push I needed to break out of my rank slump, and it was way less stressful than grinding endlessly.
