Sissi State Punks distances himself: Graz-Amo run causes excitement!

Graz, Österreich - The killing spree in Graz is currently ensuring violent public reactions, especially in the e-sports community. The E-Sport-Verein Sissi State Punks (SSP) Pictures are decidedly distanced from the suspected perpetrator in a jersey of the association on the Internet. However, the Sissi State Punks emphasize that Arthur A. was never under contract as a player or an active member, but only jumped in at a tournament at short notice as a substitute. For this purpose, he received a replacement jersey for the team photos, which is a common procedure in the e-sports scene. The association is deeply affected by the tragic events in Graz.

The Sissi State Punks are known for their unconventional appearance within the e-sports scene. In a strongly conservative environment, they stand out through conspicuous behavior, for example by consuming beer in the live stream and choosing a rough language. Sponsors such as Monster and Betathome support the association, which is successful under the direction of beer party boss Marco Pogo International and has a stable structure. An interview with Vice President Patrick Krippner illuminates the current successes and future plans of the association, in particular with regard to its credibility in the scene, such as DerStandard reports.

challenges of e-sports

The following discussions about e-sports are not only relevant for the Sissi State Punks, but also affect the entire industry. A significant problem is the social loss of legitimation of e-sports and the associated health aspects. According to the magazine for sports medicine, computer games are often associated with negative aspects such as violence, sexism, play addiction and poverty in movement. This damages the image of sport as health -promoting and pedagogically valuable.

e-sports organizations are increasingly aiming to accept organized sport in order to benefit from public sports funding and improve their image. However, scientific studies show that e-sport in children and adolescents can promote motor deficits and lack of exercise. In addition, games often dominate whose content contradicts the ethical values ​​of sport, which does not make the integration of e-sport into the conventional sports world easier.

The future of e-sports scene

In the e-sports debate, there is a clear political pressure on organized sport to open up to e-sports. Critics argue that this could increase health and pedagogical problems associated with excessive games. Voluntary coaches in sports clubs could be hindered by e-sports offers in their work. It is therefore recommended to protect a clear delimitation from digital e-sports. Some state sports tours have already withdrawn consistently to this point of view and are trying to preserve traditional values.

In view of the current events in Graz and the challenges that the e-sports scene must overcome, it becomes clear that clear communication and strategic action are essential to ensure both the image of e-sports and security in this rapidly growing industry.
