eSportsLigaen

We are not alien to videogames. In fact, I could safely assume that many of us spend our after work, aka no-screen time, in front of a screen playing videogames.

When I found out about eSportsLigaen, a lightbulb turned on, and I made it my mission to enable the activity in the LEGO Group, so that anyone within the organization could participate. Of course, I had already arranged my personal team with colleagues from my department – Big Data Engineering.

We first played CS:GO together probably for the first match we ever had. It was a disaster, as you might understand. However, this got us to actually practice throughout the week, and all in all, brought us together as a team, which I would say positively impacted our colleague and friendship relationships.

Currently, we may practice once or twice a week for CS:GO, plus league games. However, when other colleagues also want to jump in and have some fun after work, we switch to other games and activities, always with a good laugh via Discord 😊

I’d recommend other companies to join the league initiative, or some sort of “online gaming” interaction, as I believe this has strengthen our friendship, and definitely has helped us keep close together even in pandemic times, where we do not visit our offices that often.
