"Mortal" top of the market to win Esports Personality of the Year
Another big award on the night is for the Esports Personality of the Year award with 100 Thieves Founder and Owner Nadeshot winning the award last year.
Nadeshot has been a big personality in the Call of Duty Esports scene and his ownership of 100 Thieves has seen him branch out into other games too.
Nadeshot isn't nominated for the award this year with Naman 'Mortal' Mathur the 3/1 favourite to win it this year, with the PUBG Mobile player seen as the face of Indian Esports.
| Esports Personality of the Year 2023 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Naman "Mortal" Mathur | 3/1 | 25.0% |
| Charles "MoistCr1TiKaL" Christopher White Jr | 7/2 | 22.2% |
| Victor "Coringa" Augusto | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Seth "Scump" Abner | 5/1 | 16.7% |
