Not terribly surprising competitively TF2 is the 3rd largest team based FPS in NA on PC.

ESEA CSGO: ~1000
OWLeague OW: ~680
ESEA TF2: ~100
ESL RSS: ~75

I don't know if you can truthfully call TF2 larger than R6 considering they have more active players, way larger tournaments, and giant T1 orgs.

R6 has large tournaments and T1 orgs because Ubisoft is really dedicated to supporting their game as an esport. Every notable tournament is organized by ESL and is supported by Ubisoft. Pretty crazy how big a game can be when it's developer actually gives a shit.

It's also quite young for an esport and unlike blizzard with overwatch, ubisoft didn't advertise or attempt to build the game as an esport from the beginning.

Though I will admit I'm not sure about the 75 figure I pulled as I can't find anything suggesting a regular season playing like CSGO and TF2 has, and had to base it off the largest tournaments and teams that are currently active in the ESL ladders looking through previous cups ESL has had for RSS max of 127 team + ~16 pro teams would suggest team counts of 143, but most of these other cups that have any kind of sizeable number are around ~70 teams though I didn't count any community/smaller leagues for TF2/CSGO/OW and RSS overall seems to be way less fragmented than those interms of that.

But yes you're right RSS is likely as large or slightly larger than TF2 currently on PC. Odds are about 1-2 years from now RSS will likely be closer to current OW in size.

Its also a really tiny bit of publicity to the scene considering all the sites who sell this laptop will copy-paste the description.

If you google "This gaming laptop is designed to give you a competitive edge in FPS esports titles like" You'll see what I mean, heck its even in the video description of the ad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2Bv9EvLFMw
