League of Legends is the biggest game and E-sport in the world, with hundreds of millions of players throughout the world in almost every region of the planet, it hosts on of the biggest E-sports tournaments that is out there.
It's about that time of the year again, when the approaching World Championship for League of Legends is starting to be on every gamers' mind. With such a rocky year for so many reasons, almost every E-sport has cancelled their World Championships or at least gone fully online. With Riot Games announcing that they will be holding their iconic tournament in CHINA and on LAN, it was a delightful surprise that has completely rallied all fans of the game into an ever growing frenzy for this landmark event.
The World Championship is more than just players competing to be the best, but a celebration of all players, countries and communities that enjoy this game and E-sport. This year for the Season 10 World Championship, there will be 4 representatives from China, 4 from Europe, 3 from North America, 3 from South Korea, 2 from South-East Asia and 1 from Turkey, Brazil, Oceania, Latin America, Japan and Russia respectively. With such a wide variety of cultures and players, this truly is a worldwide celebration of what E-sports can be.
The group draw was done today on the 15th of September and we are already in for a great World's, there are many potential fun and exciting matchups with great potential for drama and upsets. The Championship begins with the play-in stage on the 25th of September, with the group stage starting shortly after that finishes. I am very excited to watch this tournament and finally have something to write about again.
