I just wanted to let you know that this is a beautiful video. I don't really take the time to comment on videos on here but I felt the need to do so with this one. Good work. Damn good work.
Thank you for including HoN in your video. Many people don't like to admit that HoN has its place in the history of eSports and for that matter, the history of Dota. Watching some of breaky's casts were some of the best moments I've ever had as a player.
Most people normally discredit Call of Duty for being a competitive game, saying it takes no skill. Granted, the skill gap isn't as great as in other game, but it still take some sort of skill to play it. I'm glad you actually included it in this video!
well, to start - the first tournament, and therefore probably the first instance of e-sports is Spacewars! tournament at Stanford University on 19th october 1972. I'd say that's much earlier than Starcraft or Quake. Sure, their scale is much bigger, but still - not even close to being first. Secondly, there's hardly anything like "creating" e-sports. Every game that has the option to compete with each other is, to some extent, something resembling e-sport. Hell, back in 70's people played pacman to be the first on high score table. Even that's a from of esport to some extent. Have a great day guys. :)
Was great, little surprised you went with that version of Dota 2's 'The Play' - with no health bars or player names enabled - to anyone unfamiliar with it they wouldn't have easily been able to see that a 5 man rap around gank from iG to Na`Vi happened but Na`Vi turned it around to a 5 man wipe on iG...
Ins Pire Cuz they off health bars. And All of then don't die because they used Black King Bar (yellow armour effect) what gives a spell immunite. You can be still stun sometimes but you don't get a DMG from skill.
The Dota 2 best moment was awesome, but it's funny cause Na`Vi still lost that series lol, and the video would make you think otherwise. Coulda included some better Dota 1 moments as well. Like double rapier dusa on zsmj.
After what blizzard did this evening. I'm more than happy to say that I'm gonna watch TI3 over WCS. I don't even play Dota 2 but I watch last years TI2. I would say in a way i'm boycotting them. Let's see if they learn their lesson!
Great video, but as a StarCraft fan - you could have picked better moments. But what's worse how could you have ommited WarCraft III and StarCraft:Brood War ? ; (
Its called trash talk, happens all the time in FPS games. Its more of an old school gamer thing, now its just children reporting people because they cant take banter (Dam you League of Legends) :( I miss the good old times, it made for great entertainment and made you care about who won on a different level.
woah esport history? Seems like history from the perspective of someone a little new. I felt you missed HUGE moments. For example i didnt see bisu, boxer, savior, I also didnt see someone of the most dominate CS players for years at a time. Nice video personally I think you missed some key content
I'm sorry, but what the fuck was happening when CoD players won? We're they actually yelling at the other team? I very much doubt it was "Good Game Guys!"
Not really a history of esports video, more a general tribute. I was expecting a documentary and it's just highlights video. Apart from that, video is good, just mislabeled.

This makes me so proud to be a gamer! :D

When i hear the music between 00:43-00:50, combined with that crowd applauding , i feel shivers on my spine
This was so awesome! Keep up the good work man!

I love these! But was expecting some BW in there but please do continue with these. and there are also other epic scenes other than "The Play"
Oh, my god, the feels ^^
Awesome video, man, PLEASE. keep it up!
i get goosebumps every time i see that play from navi from the international
this is an awesome video, showing almost every game!
Arguably the two most defining E-sports to date
ugh so many memories with this game
Can't believe there is no Starcraft Brood war in this... basically creater of esports... wtf
***** Quake 1 was the creator of esports in 1996.
+Viktor Blaskó nope just starcraft made it
lol at both of you.
voyth Why? :)

Have a great day guys. :)
dat street fighter fight is intense!
Sad to see only the Daigo-Justin Evo 2k4 vid is the only thing repping fighting games. Hype video none the less.
Nice video! Very good shots/footage used!
Holy crap, I can't believe a moment in TF2 (around 5:40) that I was casting is in this video.
they turned it around with lightofheaven sick blackhole and dendi stole tide ult, even when the other team had naga siren
8:25 best play in a video of the year
Missing so much from late 90s and early 00s :(
No Brood War, so sad but at least i got the chance to see some Hon.
This makes me proud to be a gamer :)
This is the video that has given me most goosebumps ever.. Really fucking extreme!
came here for the quad pistol!
I cry everytime
what about the atari tournies and the nintendo tournaments that took place in the 70's and 80's. Back when high-scores mattered.
im surprised there wasn't a single video on halo, halo imo was the reason why esports grew so much in the US
HeatoN ??
Wow another great vid inspires me to keep playing lol ranked
Where is brood war? :O
as dota player, I find it nice that you put both dota 1 and dota 2 in this video, however, why isnt SC1 in here :D?
Thanks for not forgetting HoN this time.
well as a starcraft fan there are a few aw3some moments left out...
amazing vid man!
Why didnt you show xPeke nexus kill :P that was some history

Im not a Dota player,im like wtf is happenin xD
Ins Pire Cuz they off health bars. And All of then don't die because they used Black King Bar (yellow armour effect) what gives a spell immunite. You can be still stun sometimes but you don't get a DMG from skill.
Could have used Toby's voice instead of Lumi's. More feeling.
ty!
Awesome. I was really hoping you would get in some Halo 2 though.
MyM vs Navi huge comeback @ 3:00 so good game ! but Tobi's casting was way more epic :P
I dont get why some of the newer results are in this :D I mean it isnt that "Old"
Can someone explain the Dota 2 Clip at 8:25? I don't play but it looked EPICXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXccccccccccccccxdddddd
Will still grow much our E-Sport.
Ainda vai crescer muito o nosso E-Sport.
Like who loves e-sports
I have tears in my eyes ... :))
Great video!
NaVi brings out memories :')
Det er så pisse fedt det der!!! hundreede plus point fra mig, din dejlige dreng :*
wtf no broodwar? however.. i somehow expected John's speech at the end.. :D
Lol the CoD "pro player" just flame each other at the end of the game :'D
you forgot the epic IFNG Frankfurt Bomb Defuse (CS 1.6)... and yeah, you forgot WC3
Sewarch for "PLAGUE!!! sc bw" and "REAVER REAVER REAVER" for SC:BW clips. :D
really needs some 1.6 but nice video regardless
Epic.
The Dota 2 best moment was awesome, but it's funny cause Na`Vi still lost that series lol, and the video would make you think otherwise. Coulda included some better Dota 1 moments as well. Like double rapier dusa on zsmj.
Lets have a look.
1. SC2
2. LoL
3. CS:GO
4. Dota2
5. WoT
6. Crossfire
After what blizzard did this evening. I'm more than happy to say that I'm gonna watch TI3 over WCS. I don't even play Dota 2 but I watch last years TI2. I would say in a way i'm boycotting them. Let's see if they learn their lesson!
Where is halo
this game is big, but only in USA
dat daigo block
Incredible :)
Alliance winning G-1 should be there, the only western team to win a Chinese Dota championship
Great video, happy to see tf2 in there :)
Hi, can we upload your vid on our facebook page? Credits will be given to your youtube channel.
Why you heff to hate dendi?
Great video, but as a StarCraft fan - you could have picked better moments. But what's worse how could you have ommited WarCraft III and StarCraft:Brood War ? ; (
Navi won this Bo3, and then lost to iG in the Grand Finals.
Yep that's the way CoD player's roll...
just cause you dont like it doesnt mean it isnt an esport rofl
You can't possibly showcase everything from any of the games that were around long enough in a 9 min video anyway.
fnatic vs sk backdoor favorite moment in league of legends easily. just do a quick search of that, and you will agree.
Ok then, that's sad.
cool video but its missing some really important games :p
Its called trash talk, happens all the time in FPS games. Its more of an old school gamer thing, now its just children reporting people because they cant take banter (Dam you League of Legends) :( I miss the good old times, it made for great entertainment and made you care about who won on a different level.
team fortress, black ops, lol?
yeah, such "epic" moments in esports history
this video just made me sad
No BW = No ESports
woah esport history? Seems like history from the perspective of someone a little new. I felt you missed HUGE moments. For example i didnt see bisu, boxer, savior, I also didnt see someone of the most dominate CS players for years at a time. Nice video personally I think you missed some key content
Bleh I came here expecting history of E-sports, not clip montage.
Haters gona Hate
OMG YES PLS!
TPA!!
Halo should of been added in this you have quake and doom in here .-.
+Nara Oshima Doom is not in this video... Quake is also pretty much the founder for eSports along with Starcraft...
Agreed, Quake is one of those old ones I haven't been able to try out yet.
halo is kids games compared to quake 3 multiplayer...
Nope, SpawN - SK vs NiP, CPL Winter 2005
most epic...
Call of duty is the 4th most populair Esport mate:)
DOTA 2.
they're not even the best but i see what you mean
"History of esports" *No starcraft Brood Wat* Pick one.
6:43
BW was the prime of starcraft and yet you dont even have it added in this video. Also no wc3?? the fuck man.
Console shooter, what in the actual flying mother fuck is that doing in an esports montage
List is all wrong.
Na'Vi
dude you seriously have to include xpeke backdoor. One of the msot insane moments in league.
watch?v=JZnfp0Xqnb8
I'm sorry, but what the fuck was happening when CoD players won? We're they actually yelling at the other team? I very much doubt it was "Good Game Guys!"
Yeah but it's DotA so :)
eSport is lifestyle !
Player's is not NoLifer's !
We love eSport and Counter-Strike 1.6 forever in my
Battlefield 4 for esports. Cod for noobs.
dota2 best дота лучший
Not really a history of esports video, more a general tribute. I was expecting a documentary and it's just highlights video. Apart from that, video is good, just mislabeled.
thumbs down because league of legends footage. good video though.
xPeke backdoor im EMS KATOWICE. UA-cam it!! :D
There's not even any Brood War lol. This video is a joke
