PoP also appears in another Top 10 list on the same site: https://www.sportskeeda.com/slideshow/g ... all-time/5

By the way, it looks somewhat odd to have articles about video games on a sports site.
The breadcrumb on the top says "Esports"; it looks like this section is about video games in general, not just those that are played in e-sports.
