They now know who everyone in their country playing every video game is. They'll use that information to locate the best prospects at a young age and not only exempt them from this requirement but essentially force them to play constantly and get gud at the thing the government wants them to compete in. They will simultaneously have people working on understanding the game mechanics and teaching the players to play in a fashion that exploits those mechanics. They will favour video game companies that cater to their preferences with regard to these exploitable mechanics and patch their games to give their players a better chance to succeed.

They will win 100% of the medals.
