Streaming the game is never gonna be viable for me because of where I live, even if I wanted it, and I very much don't. But then I don't care for the kind of competitive games where what hardware you run on makes that much difference, anyway.

I don't think we need "the best". Just to be able to detect and ban the egregious offenders would be enough.

I will say we agree on one thing; competitive games should not be taken as seriously as they are. But then I'm of the controversial opinion that esports made gaming worse.
