August 02, 2018

Another reason e-sports has strong growth potential is that, unlike many other sports, whose fans may only be spectators, e-sports attracts video gamers, many of whom could become e-sports competitors themselves.

From the article "E-Sports Pioneers Are Making It Up as They Go" by Peter Suciu.
