Esports Society

Are you interested in video games? Would you like to learn more about the world of Esports? Look no further!

Our aim is to create a friendly community for students and non-students alike to meet new people, talk, and play their favourite games together. Players from all games and platforms are welcome.

We have teams in both NUEL and NSE for those who are interested in playing competitively. Some of our achievements include coming 1st place in NSE’s 2020 Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournament, 3rd place in NUEL’s 2019 Summer Mortal Kombat 11 tournament and even edging out our close friends over at the Heriot Watt Esports Society during our first season competing in a NUEL League of Legends season.

However, competing is not a requirement - there are spaces for those who wish to only play casual games too!

We also host a weekly game night - Tuesdays 6pm to 8pm at the Three Sisters, providing you with an opportunity to meet your fellow gamers irl.

We collaborate with the other Esports societies in Edinburgh - teaming up with University of Edinburgh and Queen Margaret University as the "Edinburgh Defenders" against the "Watt Wyverns" in our annual Battle for Edinburgh event.

Our membership benefits include access to a members only channel in our discord, twitch promotions for streamers, priority for places in our competitive and Battle for Edinburgh teams, free entry to our weekly game nights and more! We look forward to having you with us - if you have any questions at all please don't hesitate to reach out to us!
