I don't understand how one can care about and be a fan of an E-sports team. Is there some good video I could watch to be able to "get it"?

I don't have any of Dota 2, but dude, get the right game, and it can literally be absolutely amazing to watch.

That's literally my favorite ending ever. Note this is League, but similar idea.

Multiplayer matches can certainly be very exciting and entertaining to watch, and I've watched several Age of Empire 2 games over the years, but I just can't give a damn about who the person is behind the keyboard. In contrast to traditional sports, I only root for the one who happens to be the underdog at a given moment.
