Chess is blowing up in twitch (x10 times spectators in 6 months ) and become part of pro e-sport competitions!

Regarding playing a stronger human opponent, for me the appeal was always that if I won (or perhaps even if I drew), I had something to feel good about, I could credit my skill. If I beat an equal, it's likely due to luck or to one detail he happened to miss, which can be called luck. As for watching, it is more interesting to try to guess the moves of a stronger player than to guess the mistakes of a weaker (or equal) one, but if the player is too far above me (like a top engine) it is too difficult to understand/predict/explain the moves.

When you beat an equal that's about luck, but when you beat or draw someone stronger you feel appreciation and credit your skills because, well, that's not luck, is that what you are saying? Somehow your logic seems quite upside down...
