Full disclosure: I do not game *at all* and I still found this show entertaining!
I feel like the main couple are good for each other and through the show you can see character development and how they are growing because of each other. The romance is slow but cute. At first it was just him teasing her a lot but then he starts doing small things for her, like bringing her slippers and taking care of her when she has her period which warmed my heart and reminded me of my boyfriend. Since it's a drama though, there are super cheesy unrealistic scenes sometimes *shrug*.
Despite having some fluffy scenes though, the show still had substance and I like the ​realistic way they portray the life of a celebrity / public figure. As much as the esports players are loved by their fans, they also experience a lot of hate and I feel like the show does a really good job at showing that through the FL and ML's challenges.
And although I found it hard to keep track of what was happening sometimes, I thought the scenes where the players were competing were still entertaining with the CG effects and everything.
Things I didn't like about the show:
If you watch the show, you'll just have to accept the fact that there is a ton of product placement. There's also a few e-sports gamers who are supposed to be Korean and the dubbing is pretty cringe.
I don't know if its because I binge-watched it and then took a small break before continuing but I feel like them finally getting together was a bit anti-climatic for me.
That being said, it was a cute drama that I feel like is worth watching even if it's not one of my favourites.
Solid 7.5
