As most of you know Adderall is a drug that helps a person stay focused.

Over the past couple of months i have seen a couple articles talking about adderall being used in the eSports community and how some players feel it is unfair to them.

Do you guys think it should be banned or is it not that big of a deal?

If it doesn't enhance their performance, I don't see a problem with it.

How does it not enhance their performance? It helps them concentrate for long periods of time.
I personally don't see how this should be allowed.

why not? i think professional athletes should be allowed to use steroids if they want to risk harm to their body. they get payed to be as best as they can possibly be, so why not?

So thats like saying when playing cod or something player should be able to cheat by use some type of mods.

Steroids are going to help the players play better

There's really no right or wrong answer to this IMO. I honestly don't think it'll even be a topic of debate sadly.

I personally don't watch gaming events so I know very little about this. But what if the person has a bad case of ADHD and needs adrenal. That person would have a better advantage if they were to ban it. I get the point but I don't see how they could ban it entirely. Unless they just make the person go without it and it could cause them to have a disadvantage. But like I said before I don't really know alot about these gaming events so that might not even be a problem. But I do think the people who don't need it shouldn't be allowed to have it. I see where your coming from on that part.

No, adderall should not be allowed in eSports, since it's a performance enhancer, i feel like it shouldn't be allowed.

I personally dont think so.

It enhances their performance then what? It doesnt make them any better at the game, they just concentrate more. Especially if they're prescribed adderall. It shouldnt really be banned. Its not like steroids which increases their performance.

eSports isnt an actual "sport", per se.
