In DotA or League of Legends or Warcraft 3 or StarCraft II. Everything is equal for the player in front of them. Everyone has an equal chance of winning until the better man comes out. The cards are random for Poker, yet everyone knows what Heros/Champions are picked. What Items there are in the shops, what Protoss/Zerg/Teran are better with/against, and vice versa. Everything is laid out bare in front of you, yet strategy against your opponent is what you use as skill. Microing small units, and macroing the map. It takes many hours of practice, and years of experience to get to the potential some PAID BY SPONSORS Team like Na'Vi from DotA, or a global gaming brand known as EG, or even TSM Snapdragon from League of Legends. There is also a big thing when it's called E-SPORTS by the entirety of the world as well. And it's featured on ESPN, MLG, and etc so forth.
