The Dutch Ministry of Defense has come up with a bizarre plan to recruit new talent: Play Counter Strike: Global Offensive (CS: GO). And for the first time in history, a team of games belonging to the official armed organization participated in an eSports tournament, specifically here: CS: GO.

The CS: GO game team of the Netherlands Ministry of Defense is called KM Esports, and of course, it is not just for tournament participation or for profit. According to Dutch government officials, first-person shooter (FPS) tournaments like CS: GO are the perfect place to look for talents that can serve in a variety of positions. armed.

'Take a look at drone technology.

Indeed, the Dutch Ministry of Defense believes that gamers can fully become excellent soldiers.

Guido Vols, a Royal Dutch Navy officer and a member of KM Esports, said that his gaming skills have helped him a lot in practical tasks, especially in his ability to concentrate and work. group and decision making.

According to experts, KM Esports currently 'has no door' to compete in the top position in today's major CS: GO tournaments. Unlike professional gaming teams that often spend more than 40 hours practicing each week, KM Esports members only have less than 30 hours in the game together because they are both professional soldiers. However, that is not a problem with KM Esports because their main purpose is not achievement.

If proven to be effective, perhaps the Netherlands Ministry of Defense's talent selection process will quickly be replicated worldwide.
