We’ve all been there before. We’re getting excited to watch some of the best players in the world take the stage for some high level esports competition and then… it all goes to shit.
After all, esports hasn’t always been the big production it is today and while we’ve come expect top tier production from our tournaments, there was a time when going to a big LAN tournament was a bit of a dice roll.
And we thought it would be fun to take a trip down memory lane and remember some of the tournaments that, well, didn’t go quite as planned. Here are the Top 10 Worst Esports Tournaments… So Far.

There's some false info in this video, but hey, do you I guess

Any event not featuring melee
RLCS Season 1
Dem pajeets be lurking
Didn't see any StarCraft tournaments, cause those shits be legit
CPL Winter 2007 Dallas…..such a bad tournament.
A bunch of tournaments held in very corrupt countries. Who would have thought it wouldn’t work.
Ibuypower 2019…
I thought the For Honor Season 3 Tournament would be on here, I mean the guy admits on the winners stage that he hadn't touched the game a few weeks before, exploits the unlock mechanic to win the tounament and states " I didn't think it would be that easy".
Glad to see TriForce in here LMAO
Why did you blame the VXG Tournament on Triforce ?? He was just the promoter?? That's falsified information, especially when VxG’s vice president, Rolando Brison repeatedly took full responsibility and said he would pay everybody.
idk that Madden tourney was pretty bad
TirForce did not organize VXG. He only spoke on it and attended it. Do better research
T19 Shanghai shitshow
Top 10 worst eSports teams
#1 fire island
Wow i forgot how big benson was back in 2014. Massive props to him for getting into shape!

People really believe Triforce organized VXG? That's rich. ?
TriForce NEVER organised the VXG tournament
TRIFORCE DID NOT ORGANIZE VXG
People seriously take days off for this?!
0 Overwatch and 0 League of Legends. Nice.
How about best events for next video? To balance it all out with some positivity
smash isn't an esport
Make the video 10 min longer and explain a bit more in depth… Every event here is explained as "sh1t" and that's it…
03:31 poor loda
Gaming paradise for sure
I am still waiting for Bulldog to get fired during a Major event.
Not: I'm definitely not a hater. I love him but it would be so fun to witness that in the twitch chat. PLS MAKE IT HAPPEN GABEN.
Most of these tournaments are dota and CSGO lol
What about iBuyPower Masters 2019? I almost went to that and Im glad I didnt
What the hell happened in 2015??
Is this a challenge?
RIP 2GD last dota 2 personality never forgotten
Rom 5?
VXG reminds me of Fyre Festival lmaooo what a disaster
What if we want a part two?
i clicked on the video to see where apex 2015 was gonna be and now its seems ill just keep on waiting lol
VXG was the original Fyre Festival.
The fact that there is no League of Legends tournament in this list even if you count pre-LCS era ? Only tournament that would maybe show up in this list is IEM Singapore
At least they are in the top
0:39 because people want to cure cancer
Should just be all FIFA Official tournaments lmao
let me guess…Shanghai Shitshow Major
