    So is gaming at the extremely high level. A best of 5 or 7 in SC2 is 45 minutes to an hour and a half of focus with multiple periods of extreme focus and reaction. In both cases actions are happening faster than average humans can observe.

      i just wanted to state, that i see quite a big difference between shooting, which is mainly fine motor control and focus on the one side and fencing, where the athletes need quite a big physical endurence and good body control and strength. Esports are maybe more like shooting in this regard, but you also need a high mental endurance, since matches can get quite long in some disciplines. (At least in CS, which is pretty much the only esport i watch from time to time)
