That depends. I think it means that at a certain level, in order to improve, you must play tougher opponents.
The game of Go makes this abundantly clear. You can actually damage your own skills by playing too many inexperienced or weaker opponents. But playing someone just a bit stronger than you can improve you both.
I don't know if this works the same in e-sports, but it is striking in Go, or to a lesser extent, Chess.
