“…Entering the analysis and discussion sub-chapter, the researcher will try to analyze the data collected through the sources that the researcher found, but then before discussing further we need to first equate the perception of the term or definition of sport used in this study. Sports in general can be interpreted as, "Sports are institutionalized competitive activities that involve rigorous physical exertion or the use of relatively complex physical skills by participants motivated by internal and external rewards" (Sakthi, 2018); (Lebed, 2022). "…institutionalized competitive activity that involves vigorous physical exertion or the use of relatively complex physical skills, by individuals whose participation is motivated by the combination of the intrinsic satisfaction associated with the activity itself and the external rewards earned through participation" (Varathan, 2018); (Manickam, 2021).…”

Esports is a strong phenomenon, especially in the world of children, youth, and youth. This study aims to contribute new ideas, ideas, and perspectives in the debate on Esports discourse in the world of sports, as well as in order to raise the awareness of sports academics to study more deeply about esports from various points of view of sports science. The research method used is library research. Data collection techniques by conducting a review study of books, literature, notes, journals and reports. Judging from the three main elements in sports, physical, competition and institutional, Esports cannot be identified as a sport mainly because of the physical activity missing in Esports. Although the movements that look amazing cannot be ascribed to Esports players, they require some motor skills in playing the game including hand-eye coordination and speed of action with strategic and tactical understanding but that is still considered lacking and still far from being a sport. Besides that, there is an element of addiction and symptoms of lack of movement, if you play video games too often, it is also a consideration in determining Esports as a sport. It is necessary for the role of various stakeholders and appropriate government institutions to handle esports so that they can develop and contribute as expected

In this paper I argue for the usefulness of the concept of 'movement compression' for understanding sport and games, and particularly the differences between traditional sport and eSport (as currently practised). I suggest that movement compression allows us to distinguish between different activities in terms of how movement quality (in the sense of the qualities the movement possesses, rather than that the movement is of 'high quality') affects outcome. While it applies widely, this concept can in particular help us to understand the persistent idea that eSports are in some key way distinct from traditional sports.
