Esports are just one thing with the potential to conjure potent emotions in all of us.

It just so happens that they’re damned good at it.

It might feel like a weird fit when a fistbump and a shouted “nice” is the typical affirmation a player receives.

But this is competition, after all. It’s not just about finding out who the best are and putting them in a numbered spreadsheet. It’s about the humans behind the hoists and highlights.

So while many esports players display a cool professionalism, or at least a charming awkwardness…

There are a few players who are different.

They wear their heart on their sleeve, and regularly let their emotions out for the viewers to see. And perhaps no one fits that billing more than French Counter-Strike veteran Dan "apEX" Madesclaire.

apEX has essentially grown up on a Counter-Strike server, but despite now being a wizened veteran of the game, his emotional timbre is one of the few things about him that hasn’t changed very much.
