"Here he outlined the fact that, while people with disabilities are often encouraged to compete, the truth of that competition is that it takes place between people with disabilities. By contrast, he feels that esports offer scenarios in which he feels as though he's at no disadvantage. The dream, he says, is that there will come a time when people with disabilities compete on even footing with able-bodied players in what he calls, "a shining example of what can be accomplished when people are willing to look past another person's physical appearance and see their potential and valuable perspective." Well put. This is my dream for esport, i wish that in the future we will see disabled people competing with others fellow from different genders, race, whatever sexual orientation (as long as it's not children yeah) at the top level of esports. Not only it would be a marvelous thing to see, it would also be the best way to show to the world that esport is far more than just gaming, it's about competition, passion and dedication and whatever physical attribute you have, you can be the best. I wish the very best to Matthew Fink, i hope his story inspires more disabled people to try their hand (no pun intended) at esports. Also check out the story of Space, a korean progamer from warcraft3 if you don't know it. This guy is the real deal, he was badly disabled and managed to be one of the very best warcraft3 player. | ||

His story is quite a lesson in itself, about willingness, about following dreams, about overcoming whatever life throws at you... He deserves a lot of attention and support imo ! | ||
