Fun sayings and memes define esports, gaming, and internet culture at large. Abios explores some of the best esports quotes of all time and their impact on the esports space.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Esports is a relatively new industry that has undergone countless challenges and changes. Throughout it all, the pros, orgs, investors, and owners have not only gone along with the chaos but have also helped innovate and shape the industry as it grows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While many esports quotes are just plain hilarious or trolling, there are quite a few gems mixed in that show just how profound the competitive gaming scene can be. Here are some of our favourite esports quotes and how they have helped define today’s industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Motivational League of Legends Quote<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

“Every single person who\u2019s succeeded in life has experienced failure at some point in their lives, so I think failure takes a bigger part in people\u2019s lives than one may think. It\u2019s important to not lose yourself in the emotions from success and failure” <\/h2>\n– Faker<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

There’s no denying that Lee \u201cFaker\u201d Sang-hyeok is the face of esports. A veteran of League of Legends esports and an icon in South Korea and beyond, the talented pro player has shined a positive light on the esports industry in popular culture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Faker is more than the face of an ice cream brand<\/a> \u2014 he has shown how much passion and determination it takes to be at the top for so long. He may be known for taking W’s at the League of Legends World Championship, but he clearly has been shaped by the challenges in his career and staying driven when things get tough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Female Esports Quote<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

“Female tournaments, at the moment, are the only initiative we have towards female gamers. Because of those events, we\u2019ve seen female teams even being sponsored. Those are band-aids, in my opinion. They serve a purpose, but underneath the band-aid the problem is still there” <\/h2>\n– missharvey<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Former pro Counter-Strike player turned innovator Stephanie \u201cmissharvey\u201d Harvey,\u00a0has continued to be an advocate for women in competitive gaming<\/a>. In an interview I had with her years ago, she explained that female-only tournaments are needed to provide a safe space and platform for female teams but that the real goal is to have everyone integrated as one. To do this, however, female gamers would need to be given a lot more resources for practice early on, similar to their male counterparts \u2014 and the intimidation and harassment would also need to end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For now, female-only esports tournaments have become platforms for competitive female gamers to show off their skills and speak about the challenges they see as women continue their attempts at joining the male-dominated space. missharvey has continued to be one of the first esports pros who fought for inclusivity while also showing how badass she was at the game against men and women alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Esports Industry Quote<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

“Smash is a beautiful game, it deserves to shine […] I hope this game lives on another 20 years” <\/h2>\n– Hungrybox<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

In this impassionate speech at the Streamer Awards, pro Melee player Juan “Hungrybox” DeBiedma called out Nintendo for not supporting the competitive Super Smash Bros. community. The scene has continued to grow despite its heavily grassroots and crowd-funded background, showing that the passion of the community is what has truly made Melee last as an esport for over 20 years without any funding from Nintendo. It proves how esports fans come together for what they love and will do anything to keep their scene alive \u2014 one reason so many people want to get involved in esports and experience it’s electric atmosphere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
