Perhaps I over estimate it's reach, I don't know. I just find it strange that people don't know much about a esports even that is the largest prize pool in the world, and has been going on for over a decade. It's not like the viewer numbers are low.

But I will say it's like watching chess, some matches can take 1 hour or longer. It's certainly not for everyone and you need deep knowledge of the heroes and items to fully understand what is going on.

Reasonable points, but I don't think prize pool size has anything to do with it. I mean some lotteries have crazy prize money but many people in their right mind couldn't care less.

I think that the age of the internet has brought us the effect that everybody can just mind their own thing. There is not just a few TV stations dictating what everyone should watch, like in the old days.
