You seem to think that competitive gaming doesn't cause distress. Because it doesn't if you know how to handle yourself. It's pretty fucking easy. They aren't easy replacements and that is in no way debunking the benefits. You argued from a subjective position and only you think you won that argument. They're the easiest replacements ever. Can't find any statistics on the matter but one in three hundred billion seems a bit on the low end.
Because it doesn't happen.

Now you're just being silly. Eustress and distress are fairly basic concepts that most people learn about in high school. You didn't debunk them, you offered alternatives because we should fight our animalistic urges, something you just admitted you don't always do. Pretty much the same as debunking, because I obliterated every reason there is to masturbate. If your reasons for masturbating can be easily replaced by better activities, then there's no reason to masturbate at all. Destroyed. I believe a member of this community got carpal tunnel, could be mistaken.
So 1 in 300 billion people get carpal tunnel for playing video games too hard. Big whoop.

Your physical health is important verb, shouldn't you want to do everything in your power to preserve it? I could not give the slightest fuck about my health. It is more useful to be stressed every once in awhile. Flee outlined several benefits to masturbation that you wrote off, it's not difficult verb. And I debunked every single one of them effortlessly. Flee has spent most of his life studying law, and that's the lane that he should stay in. Also, carpal tunnel exists.
Nobody fucking gets carpal tunnel playing video games. Get real.

Minimizing stress is beneficial to everyone, not just for people who deal with chronic stress. But it's not necessary for everyone. Doing things just because they're "beneficial" is retarded. What is it worth? Sometimes it's GOOD to be stressed the fuck out. I want to be stressed. It motivates me. How is jerking off any different?
Because the ONLY THING that it gives you is pleasure, making it a colossal waste of time. I'd rather suffer a broken arm than a heart attack or aneurism.
You might be retarded.

Shouldn't we be challenging our animalistic urges, or am I just more intelligent than you?
No, because I already do that. But if your animalistic urges don't hurt anybody, and has value in other senses, then perhaps it's worth keeping around.

Stress can definitely cause physical injury.
It does it less to an extremely obvious degree, making it better than physical sports.

Minimizing stress is healthier, therefore you shouldn't want to play competitive games. Games like flower and others like it actually reduce stress and are certainly a much better option.
Only if chronic stress is an issue for you. It isn't for everybody.

Also that you feel competition is a negative unless it pertains to something you're arguing for.
Nope. Competition is a negative. Having a safe outlet to satiate one's thirst for competition in a relatively harmless way isn't. This isn't complicated.

That competitive gaming is harmful to your overall health and shouldn't be counted as a positive.
Physical sports pile on the possibility for physical injury on top of stress. Video games don't.

Stress is harmful and unavoidable. If it's both of these things, then there's no point in bringing it up.
You would have a point if stress was EXCLUSIVE to playing competitive video games, which it obviously isn't. If competitive video games don't stress you out, then something else will. Thereby making competitive video games FUCKING harmless when you control for factors that cannot be changed.

So games that you can spam combos lack depth, got it.
no
games that offer no incentive to do anything else but spam combos lack depth, other than "c'mon it's FUN!!!!" which isn't an incentive at all unless you think of games as stupid entertainment instead of art
What's wrong with entertainment?
we have enough of it
pure entertainment is piss-useless, and it's probably toxic for the brain
it's better to inject it with something that can actually be used in life, and HnS games have always been notoriously bad at that
What do you use in life that you gleaned from Street fighter?
patience, discipline
determination
problem solving
how to take a loss
practicing combos helps with memory, dexterity, creativity, and critical thinking
the game also has a strong social aspect, feeds my thirst for competition, and gives me something to strive to get better at
Competition is wrong tho
not when it's over video games (generally)
humans are competitive by nature, so better to concentrate that energy into something harmless than something harmful, like physical sports
The stress from competitive video games is anything but harmless.
not if you're mentally stable
Stress affects everyone, not just the mentally unstable.
So it's unavoidable, therefore there's literally no reason to allocate it to something harmless like video games.
You're reaching pretty hard for this.
Stress affects everyone but not all stress is the same.
Stress is caused by stimuli and the stimuli vary, as does the amount of stress caused by each stimuli.
If competitive video games causes stress (as I'm sure it does) it's avoidable by simply doing something else.
Which would be stupid if you know how to handle that stress and playing the games give you more value than stopping. If the stress is too much for whatever reason, then competitive games aren't for you.
I'm failing to see your point.
Handling stress isn't the same as not experiencing it. Stress is harmful no matter how you slice it.
What is your point?

You keep using the word harmless, it's not harmless.
It's absolutely harmless.

Cos coffee tastes good, paracetamol stops my headaches, weed was available at uni, chocolate tastes good, it numbed the pain when I had teeth removed, I needed it for my asthma...
And sure it's part of my culture to be innebriated at weddings, funerals and most social gatherings.
I think that covers most drugs I can remember taking.
how does it feel to have such a repugnant culture
