Riot let LOL join the E-sports World Cup with a prize of more than 100 million!

Lei Sports Information:

In the early years, Riot disbanded all unofficial world competitions by a single order. This also made the popularity of League of Legends' S match reach its peak, and even set a new record every year. And with the rise of the LPL, the World Championship is not the only show in South Korea, there are more highlights and the game is more exciting, but waiting too long will inevitably make the audience tired.

Just recently, Saudi Arabia announced that it would host the Esports World Cup. At that time, the League of Legends project had not been announced, but what people didn't expect was that foreign media reported recently that the E-sports World Cup held in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, in 24 years will include the LOL project.

This matter has been affirmed by Riot, and what is even more outrageous is that Riot allows each region to send two teams to participate in this competition, and the initiative is completely handed over to Saudi Arabia, which will not decide the participating teams of each region by itself. Riot was also very cooperative in demanding that the leagues suspend all matches in the first week of July to make way for the World Cup.

According to the prize pool currently revealed, the LOL project should be able to get about 100 million yuan, and Riot will also get huge profits from it, it can only be said that in front of the local tyrants in the Middle East, the principle of Fist is not worth mentioning, which perfectly explains what it means to "have money to make the devil grind".

Netizens also debated who should give the two places, if it is the team with the best ranking in the league, it is not fundamentally different from Msi, if it is the team with the highest vote, it looks more like child's play. I can only say that this headache is left to the LPL official to consider, I don't know what you guys think of this news?
