The Olympic Esports Series has now concluded, with numerous gold medalists (but not really because they’re winning trophies, not medals) already having been crowned as winners of their respective events.

The games in question were not the most popular competitive video games you probably think of when the word ‘esports’ is mentioned, such as League of Legends, Dota 2, and Counter-Strike. Instead, Olympic Esports Week was all about many relatively obscure games somewhat tied back to a ‘traditional’ sport that wouldn’t seem out of place in the real Olympic Games.
Since it can be tough to either stay up late or get up early to watch the Olympic Esports Series, which is taking place in Singapore, I’ve compiled a list of all of the winners and other medalists (again, not really medalists, but I digress).
