I am Thorin, also known as "The Esports Historian". I've been creating content chronicling the history of esports since 2001. I was voted "Esports Journalist of the Year" for 2017 at the Esports Industry Awards. I produce many different types of content, from historical articles to op-eds (written and video) to talk shows to interviews.



I appreciate any and all support for my work, but I will paraphrase the words of Sam Harris in emphasising that if you, for whatever reason, cannot afford any drink of your choice when you go into a big coffee chain then do not feel obliged to support me financially. I won't starve, this Patreon is rather about providing a direct way for those who follow my work to support it, potentially influence it with their ideas and ensure its continuation.
