Riot Games is kicking it up a notch with their second season League of Legends tournament by upping the prize pool from a mear $100k to a record breaking $5 million.
The thriving eSports community surrounding League of Legends continues to grow at an incredible pace, and it’s the enthusiasm of competitors from across the globe that has engendered this special opportunity. And with League of Legends featured as an official title in such landmark eSports organizations as Major League Gaming, Electronic Sports League, and the World Cyber Games, this substantially increased prize pool is just the first glimpse into what we have planned for the upcoming season.
The $5 million will not just be for the eventual winners, the money will be funding prizing for local, national and international tournaments to foster and grow the League of Legends eSports scene.
League of Legends Season 2 will begin sometime this fall and will feature weekly live streams of regional tournaments in North America and Europe.
