What is Phil Gaming? Is it a meme, an enigma, a secret society that only forms when Insomnia comes around?
ENUK editor Dom Sacco asks UK League of Legends scene players (left to right) Egospeed, Hyojung and Gould about the mysterious team and what it’s all about.
Check out the video interview from i64 here, where we also asked Egospeed and Gould about their time in the UKLC so far with Bulldog Esports:
The Phil Gaming roster at i64:
IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN and the *BEST* UK org to have ever existed is back to once again dominate the competition at #insomnia64. Prepare to get disrespected.
Phil fkin Gaming.

Dom is an award-winning writer and finalist of the Esports Journalist of the Year 2023 award. He graduated from Bournemouth University with a 2:1 degree in Multi-Media Journalism in 2007.
As a long-time gamer having first picked up the NES controller in the late ’80s, he has written for a range of publications including GamesTM, Nintendo Official Magazine, industry publication MCV and others. He worked as head of content for the British Esports Federation up until February 2021, when he stepped back to work full-time on Esports News UK and offer esports consultancy and freelance services. Note: Dom still produces the British Esports newsletter on a freelance basis, so our coverage of British Esports is always kept simple – usually just covering the occasional press release – because of this conflict of interest.
