Competitive disconnect

Let me preface this with I'm not as into other Esports as I am into COD, so I wasn't sure if other games have such a big disconnect from the average player to a competitive player. I've always thought thats been apart of the issue for the competitive side of the game, that the majority of the player base are normally on the other side of issues than the competitive side.

My best example being MW2019 I know for many causal COD gamers that game seems to be a standout with some people still choosing to play it over the more recent games. As we all know that game was a 5v5 dumpster fire for competitive.

I remember hearing Scump come up with this idea on an Optic Podcast and I thought it would be great. If COD was to make a game for console & PC that was like COD mobile, just the best maps, guns, and gameplay and make that their competitive game and still come out with yearly releases for warzone and your casual gamers. I know COD would never do this but it's definitely an idea.

Wasn't sure if this was a problem in other Esports and if there was any solutions other people may have to help this community.
