It's certainly not a traditional "sport", but this is just an argument of semantics. Starcraft 2 does have a physical aspect. The amount of APM and endurance they have actually does require physical training just by playing such a sheer amount of games.
It is competitive, there are teams, winners, and losers. There is a game and a purpose. I would just label it under an "esport", which definitely a real thing.


so are you saying that going to the gym and lifting weights as you call training will make me great at starcraft? hell im gonna hit the gym right now

Pfff, are you claiming that chess is not a sport?

Seriously.

Every major sport started as a recreational game, the only difference is that this one is played with a keyboard and mouse instead of your hands and feet.

hiting 1234 with your fingers ~ 1000000000000 times in a row will make you good at starcraft.

Espn thinks poker is a sport.
And Starcraft is an e-sport. I would not argue it's a sport, but it is an e-sport.
