It has been around since 2016, with\u00a0Counter-Strike\u00a0player Emil \u201cHeatoN\u201d Christensen and\u00a0Quake\u00a0player Dennis \u201cThresh\u201d Fong being the first inductees. Since then, other notable community figures have been added to the Esports Hall of Fame, including\u00a0Counter-Strike\u00a0players Ola \u201cElement\u201d Moum and Kyle \u201cKsharp\u201d Miller, Quake\u00a0player Johnathan \"FATAL1TY\" Wendel, and gaming personality and caster John \u201cTotalBiscuit\u201d Bain. \"Every inductee into the Esports Hall of Fame did an overwhelming performance to push esports further and take it to the next level,\" ESL said. \"We honor that engagement, their outstanding performance, achievements and activities in the field of esports in to promote the professionalism and value of esports with their introduction into the Esports Hall of Fame\u2014where they will be remembered forever.\" It really shouldn't come as much of a surprise that Faker will be inducted into the Esports Hall of Fame, though. The three-time world champion is one of the best\u00a0League of Legends\u00a0players in the game's history. Although SKT had a disappointing 2018 season, the organization has revamped its lineup for the upcoming year\u2014and Faker's fans hope to see the Hall of Fame inductee back on top in 2019.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/30092942\/34809602795_343379b751_k.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76320"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/917"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76320"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76320\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/76321"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76320"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76320"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76320"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=76320"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=76320"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=76320"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=76320"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
