I’m not sure where to begin. This decade, the majority of my adult life, has shaped me like no other and esports was definitely the one thing that had the largest impact. It took me so many places, physically and emotionally, it gave me travels around the globe and forged friendships I will cherish forever. It made me quit my boring marketing job in...

It’s that time again, ESL One Cologne time! Entering Lanxess arena to the sound of a roaring crowd, few things get you more hyped! There is something special about Cologne and ESL One.
