GW2 will never be an E-sport.

There is no suspense. There is no pause in action.

Starcraft and Dota style games are esports because they have 2 opposing sides building strength before they do battle.

GW2 doesnt have that since everyone has full power and there is nothing to do except kill enemies and cap points that are later capped by the other team eventually.
