Abstract. We built a named entity recognition/linking system on Esports News. We established an ontology for Esports-related entities, collected and annotated corpus from 80 articles on 4 different Esports titles, trained CRF and BERT-based entity recognizer, built a basic Dota2 knowledge base and a Entity linker that links mentions to articles in Liquipedia, and an end-to-end web app which serves as a demo of this entire proof-of-conecpt system. Our system achieved an over 61\% overall entity-level F1-score on the test set for the NER task, and also satisfying intuitive results on the linking task.
