Lawrence Serafico

Features Writer
Lawrence is a freelance feature editor for Esports Insider, bringing over six years of experience as a content writer, game tester, and consultant. While he can spend all day watching the numbers go up in MMORPGs, he loves overanalyzing pro play in every tournament. Lawrence doesn't play one game forever and (poorly) tries to balance playing competitive MOBAs, shooters, and TCGs all at once.

EXPERTISE

Lawrence is deep into MOBAs every since he was left alone to fend for himself in computer shops. He's has grown with Dota 2, League of Legends, Counter-Strike, Overwatch 2, and is now closely following the future of Deadlock.

Lawrence Serafico's Recommendation

"As a games journalist and content writer for years, I've noticed that flashy plays will get you highlights but it's always the small decisions that add up. Like in esports: be consistent, even if its boring and thankless, and you'll eventually be in the position to show off."

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
