Since the start of Season One, League of Legends has been featured in some of the largest and most prestigious eSports events in the world such as the Alienware Arena, Electronic Sports League, and the World Cyber Games. We’ve heard your pleas for more,and we’re here to deliver. Season One will present a League of Legends circuit filled with community-run tournaments and events, swag giveaways, and a $100,000 grand prize championship. It all begins … now.
Whether you’re a pro, a player, or an event organizer, Season One offers you a chance to be a part of the action and participate in a wealth of League of Legends events. Throughout 2010 and 2011, Riot Games eSports staff will be officially sanctioning League of Legends competitive events ranging from newly organized tournaments put on by community members to established Online and LAN competitions. You can find out the details of each and every event by checking out our Competitive Play section. Whether it’s the glory, the camaraderie, or the cold, hard cash that drives you, all summoners are welcome to participate and compete!
Every sanctioned event, both online and in-person, will be assigned a point value, allowing participating teams to climb the rankings towards placement in the Season One Finals. Teams will be ranked based on the points they earn over the course of the circuit, and the top ranked teams in each region (North America, Europe, China, and South East Asia) will be invited to the end of Season One tournament; competing against the best in the world for their share of the $100,000 grand prize pool. Official rankings and rules can be found in the Season One Circuit forum.
Summoners who are looking to attend events, compete, and make some new friends should check out the list of competitive events and the competitive discussion forum. These forums will contain detailed information on where Season One events are being held and how you can participate!
Do you have any interest in planning your own Season One event? What about organizing a meeting place for summoners to share some epic games? If you are an event organizer, then you’ll have the opportunity post your event to our Competitive Events forum. If the event meets our standards, then we’ll not only supply you with Riot Points for your staff and tournament winners, but your event may also be sanctioned as an official Season One circuit event and receive other perks. A list of standards and recommendations for event organizers can be found here.
Want a piece of $100,000? Organize your team using the recruitment forums and start practicing. The Season is long and as the old adage goes “You can't win a championship in November, but you can certainly lose one”.
Good luck, Summoners, and revel in the spirit of competition!
Well as you guys can see it has started and I'm very interested in this competition I might even make a team for myself for that piece if $100,000 I hope you guys sign up too!
