Short term: bad
Splits community in half and detracts dev time for something that is potentially entertaining but atm rather boring to watch. I mean how many times can you see the same FCRW/NUC/TIW outfits perform the same max crash tactics every week over some base recorded by a crappy admin cam and feel entertained?
Long term: good (if it picks up)
There's a lot of spectator potential if the esports scene picks this one up and we get some real competition and professional coverage. The additional attention it generates is good for the longevity and development of the game.
