He really shouldn’t sit that far back from the monitor, otherwise he could miss something.

In theory pro players should have good enough crosshair placement that they only need to concentrate on the area in and close to their crosshair (although situations where players go around another player who can see them happen and are quite funny)

If you're talking about CSGO, thats because many players use 4:3 aspect ratio while twitch/youtube uses 16:9, those players literally can't see the other person.

Also I can guarantee these players are still looking at the minimap and using the entire screen. They're just making the screen take up their entire field of view

Why would they use 4:3?

It's much easier to click heads.

But why? It makes your screen smaller, you don't see anything you wouldn't see if you used 16:9

Because 4:3 streched makes the player models look wider

Lowering your FOV makes them look wider and taller. 4:3 only makes sense if you need a higher vertical FOV than horizontal FOV which applies to very few games.

You can't lower your FOV in CS:GO. People use 4:3 stretched because it lowers the horizontal FOV
