The bit many people are not realizing is that e-sports will overtake current sports within the next few decades.
For now, e-sports is at that sweet spot of good production value and a reasonable amount of advertising. I predict we'll be back to sitting through 3-5 minutes of commercials for every 15 minutes of gameplay within the next decade as advertisers realize how willing gamers are to spend money on virtual stuff.

While the top 1% can be seen between commercials, the top 5% are cast on Twitch, commercial free, by a sole caster surviving on Twitch and Patreon. The level of competition will be very similar, possibly with more variety in the top 5%.
