Vietnamese League of Legends fans have had a rough couple of years, being without representation at three straight international events. Now, however, the region will have at least something small to look forward to during what would have been another disappointing offseason.

Dubbed as the VCS’ Winter Split, the eight franchised teams GAM Esports, Saigon Buffalo, Team Secret, CERBERUS Esports, SBTC Esports, Team Flash, Burst the Sky Esports and Luxury Esports

When it comes to the most impactful roles in League of Legends, most players immediately look towards the jungle, which has been vital to solo queue success since the beginning of the 2021 season. But in the team-focused landscape of professional play, another role takes precedent in shot-calling, teamfighting, and overall map awareness: support. Support players in professional League have stood out as some of the most important and impactful players throughout 2021. Yet this impact is predominantly driven through the small pool of meta picks—Thresh, Leona, Nautilus, and Rell—that

Over the last few years, the jungle position in professional League of Legends has become one of the most important roles on a team. Whether you’re playing at the highest level or playing a solo queue game, a good jungler can mean the difference between an easy win and a grueling loss due to their control over the pace of the game. Junglers are the catalysts for their team’s early game, help activate some star players through ganks, and serve as the overall engine for a competitive squad. But at

Each year, hundreds of professional League of Legends players compete in a dozen leagues across the world. And since the game’s professional scene is splintered into these regional leagues, it makes it difficult for the best players from their respective regions to compete with each other on a consistent basis.  At the World Championship, though, the strongest players from each corner of the globe congregate, treating fans to memorable moments and “instant classic” games. Perhaps it’s the rarity of matches played between some of League’s biggest stars that makes Worlds

In the span of just four months, Cloud9 went from one of the top League of Legends teams in the world to one of the international scene’s shakiest. After winning the North American Spring Split title in convincing fashion in May, the team was a shoe-in to be a top-four team at the Mid-Season Invitational. Since that point, though, Cloud9 have fallen off a proverbial cliff.  Of course, they didn’t fall as hard this year as they did in 2020 when they went from winning the LCS in the spring

A lucky group of players got to show off some of Overwatch 2’s new features in the middle of the action-packed Overwatch League Grand Finals match, in which the Shanghai Dragons claimed a sweeping victory over the Atlanta Reign. Ten players previously eliminated in the playoff bracket got to team up and play an exhibition match for league viewers. They fought it out on one of the sequel’s new modes, Push, in which an adorable robot moves a barricade to a point on the map as players defend him. The
