    This almost never hapoens in Esports. A team to stand up to the dirty bloody millions of esport-washing of saudi arabia. 99% of your gaming heros, once offered with the cash, bend their knees then lubricated and opened their buttocks wide open with that saudi oil for that bag. It’s too hard for young dumb fucks who only care about games to not sellout and take blood-stained dirty money taken from the taxes and wealth of poor oppressed unrepresented people in an oppressive dictatorship. Same happened for saudi soccer/golf/mma/boxing sportwashing. 8 oit of the top 10 athlete earners in 2024 ($100millions earned+ each) got their money from saudi arabia. that tells you all need to know

    Geoguesser is an esport?

      Farming Simulator has an esport. Microsoft Excel has an esport. At this point it’d be weird if Geoguessr didn’t have an esport.
