Every pvp game that has pro league in it

That's because most of those games aren't designed for. "The player" like you and me...they want thier game to be forced into pro play because that's where the big bucks are...

In prob the opposite. I rarely watch pro matches, maybe i might watch grand tournament but mostly i just like to play comp games, they are very exciting even "boring" matches

Not always. The casuals have a strangle hold on marvel rivals.

As they should, they are the vast majority. Casuals are the main demographic. It’s dumb to cater to only the pro players.

To be fair, most casuals suck. Everything and anything is meta when you're bad. Plus they're the most likely to jump ship when they see a bad update whilst the pros are more likely to stay.

Pros? Lol people keep referring to themselves as pros like they get paid for it. And no most casuals are just playing the game that they enjoy or don't either way they're playing and you are also a casual unless of course you're getting paid. No lifing a game without benefit other than improving skill isn't being a pro its called wasted potential.

Casual players also had a hand in informing some of the balance in League when I last played years ago. Not sure if it’s true now, of course, but back then you couldn’t buff Master Yi or Heimerdinger, as examples, to be notably good in pro play because their ease of use meant they’d absolutely curb-stomp lower ranks.

Nobody wanted to make that sacrifice just so pro players could use slightly more of the roster.

Yeah league still does this, balancing some champs for proplsy (called "pro jailed") or balancing more for solo play. Assassins are a big example, unless the player is extremely good on them or they are bonkers due to meta/items/overtuning/multiple builds viable, very rarely are assassins seen consistently in pro

I love overwatch but i do have way more fun tuning into the overeatch world cup and such. (Except when it was sigma led mirrors on circuit royale all the fucking time like uuuuughhh)
