| content | Text | | A tweet from [[Companies/ESL|ESL]]'s Counter-Strike account on March 26th, 2025, has sparked significant controversy among fans after the esports tournament organizer shared four AI-generated images with the caption "if Counter-Strike was a Studio Ghibli movie." What was intended as a nostalgic nod to iconic moments in the game has instead been met with criticism for relying on AI-generated art instead of hiring a human artist.
"Posting AI garbage like this is so pathetic," one user wrote on X. "It really takes away everything that makes these key moments in Counter Strike so meaningful."

However, the backlash has not been unanimous. Some have shown more tolerance towards ESL’s use of AI, defending it as a legitimate tool for creativity. Michal Kabele, an esports commentator, responded on X, saying: “It’s surprisingly one-sided here. I would expect esports people to be ready for technology and not reject it like this.
“AI is replacing and will continue to replace. People may like it or not, but one thing is certain: it will become more and more common. This is still just the beginning.”
The debate highlights the growing tensions between technology, art, and tradition in the esports community, as AI-generated content becomes more prevalent in the creative process. |
