[in a well equipped sports room, a character rants] Someone has to say it… Some athletes have an advantage over others and it’s ruining sports!

[in a soccer field, a smug character points and replies] Damn right buddy, that’s why we should ban privileged kids from competitive sports: their wealth gives them access to better equipment, coaching, sparring partners, free time. it’s just unfair to the rest!

    But… that’s just how sorting by quality works.

    Pro e-sports players have insanely good time awareness. There’s a video of Faker (a famous League of Legends player) stopping a stopwatch at exactly 5 seconds. Because he’s the kind of guy who keeps track of his oponent’s skill cooldowns in his brain.

    I have no chances against a guy like that. You have no chances against a guy like that. Doesn’t mean we need to ban people for having amazing qualities or skills, does it?
