This is also the first time that the 20-year-old has picked the champion in his relatively short career. The last time Annie was picked at an international League event was back at Worlds 2015, where she was chosen multiple

League of Legends is home to a vast multitude of worlds, regions, and multiverses. While most League players will only recognize the landscape of Summoner’s Rift (which is fine), there’s a whole universe of League lore waiting to be explored. Much of that universe is supplemented by some extremely in-depth art pieces that could serve as wallpapers, printouts, or pieces of a slideshow.  Several years ago, Riot consolidated all of League’s lore—including the game’s short stories, champion biographies, and associated pieces of artwork—onto the League Universe website. There, players can

It’s been a tough League of Legends 2021 World Championship for 100 Thieves, the LCS’ first seed.
