Apex Legends: Pro Streamer Shows Greatness At 2 Million Tournament, Foregoes Certain Kill

• Ever since Apex Legends got off to a rocket-like start in 2019, the shooter has been a fixture in the esports arena.
• A current tournament with 2 million US dollars in prize money in the Battle Royale proves this again (about 1.97 million euros).
• Pro teams from all over the world have qualified for the multi-day “ALGS Championship” in Apex Legends and are doing everything they can to bring home the big pot. You have to collect points in several final rounds.
• But the team around professional Philip “ImperialHal”doses decides to get in an important, safe kill. Now everyone is celebrating him as the 23-year-old man of honor in the competitive shooter space.

This happened in the final: Right after the start of the round, in which 20 teams fight for victory, ImperialHal sees an enemy. He stands like a cow in an open meadow, the professional aims – a simple kill. But instead of getting one step closer to victory, the pro decides coldly not to shoot.

ImperialHal tells his two colleagues not to shoot. The reason given by the professional: “This guy crashes!“. So his opponent had technical issues and lost connection to Apex Legends. He repeats his instruction: “Don’t shoot, don’t shoot!He and his colleagues then move on, one sure kill less, but richer with a backpack full of honor. With such technical problems, Dr Disrespect in Apex Legends had also excited.

Here’s how viewers react: Both the live viewers and the hard-working commentators agree: ImperialHal is celebrated. In good New German he is a man of honor of the first order. User RR appreciatively tweeted below the video: “He should be even more praised because his team needs every point, every little advantage is important. Maybe there is an Apex God out there after all“.

But the other pros at Apex Legends can only agree and praise Imperial Hal’s sportsmanship. Some users, on the other hand, see no point in being honorable when so much money is at stake. They say he would have harmed his team as well, as he shouldn’t have made such decisions on his own.

Who won the tournament? The big tournament in Apex Legends has ended today, July 11th. We now know that ImperialHal unfortunately didn’t win. The team around professional DarkZerooGG can collect the prize money. The round you see in the clip above qualified ImperialHal for the next final round, after all.

The man of honor and proverbial winner of hearts himself says about the situation: “This is the least any player should do.So ImperialHal shows sportsmanship. In another shooter, a finalist was noticed rather negatively because he cheated live in Warzone and made embarrassing excuses.
