Esportsmanship: The Best Moments of Sportsmanship in Esports

1-6

Gergana Stamenova
Gaming - August 23rd 2020, 23:06 GMT+2
Overwatch Gauntlet 2019
OVERWATCH GAUNTLET 2019: Here is European champion team HSL shaking hands with their opponents in their booth after a match in the Overwatch Gauntlet 2019 – great sportsmanship and apparently even a bit of banter between the teams! (Image credit: Blizzard Entertainment)
Sportsmanship 2
SXSQ GAMING 2018: A moment of everyone coming together at a competition – at the SXSQ Gaming 2018, not just two but several teams came together to show off their good sportsmanship – among them Nova Esports, Tribe Gaming, Immortals, Team Liquid and Team Queso. (Image credit: Nova Esports)
Sportsmanship
TEKKEN – PAKISTAN 2019: Top Tekken player Knee promised he’d go to Pakistan to learn more about the Pakistani way of playing Tekken after several encounters with Pakistani player and World Champ Arslan Ash – and he really made good on that promise. He was greeted at the airport in Lahore with flowers by other Tekken competitors, including Fate_Bilal. That’s true sportsmanship! (Image credit: Fate_Bilal)
S1mple sportsmanship
ESL ONE COLOGNE QUARTERFINAL 2018: S1mple is a top CS:GO player, but nobody is perfect – in the 2018 ESL One, he found himself ‘crowd-cheating’ in other words, discovered another player’s location from outside clues (a reflection in some glass) rather than through gameplay. Instead of using his advantage, he gave his position away to the enemy and voluntarily lost the round. (Image credit: Fnactic/NAVI Gaming)
TAZ sportsmanship
ESL ONE COLOGNE 2016: Not for the first time, VP player Taz showed his excellent sportsmanship by praising opposing team Astralis and their performance at the event, instead of talking about himself in an interview. He had previously actually interrupted an interview with a Fnatic player at a different event just to point out to the audience how great Fnatic had performed – genuine kindness and fantastic sportsmanship from Taz! (Image credit: Virtus.Pro/ESL One Cologne)
SKT sportsmanship
LEAGUE OF LEGENDS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 2015: During one of the group stages, the team that later went on to win the entire tournament, SKT, asked their opponents onto the stage with them, to greet the audience and bow to them together. Despite the somewhat crushed-looking expressions on the Bangkok Tigers' faces, the gesture was appreciated – sportsmanship at every level.
