Hello everyone! The time is upon us, with the list of teams qualified for the 2021 Worlds Championship! With the last matches, American and European fans experienced a rollercoaster of emotions, both with TSM and G2. But there have also been lots of ups from the underdogs like Rogue or 100 Thieves, so this competitive season was one of the most fascinating in recent years.
And now, finally, the stage is set for the 2021 League of Legends World Championship!
For the second year running, the end-of-year event will take place in China. The multi-city tour will include five distinct cities from Shanghai in the opening stage of the tournament to Shenzhen in the finals.
Worlds 2021 will bring together the top teams from 12 regional leagues to compete for the Summoner’s Cup. At its full capacity, the 60,000-seat Universiade Sports Centre in Shenzhen will be hosting the finals on Nov. 6.
