Look Sports Media – Riot Games has just dropped a bombshell announcement: Legends Ascend South Asia, a massive amateur League of Legends tournament, is launching April 27th. This isn’t just another tournament; it’s a pathway to the League of Legends Championship Pacific (LCP) for aspiring South Asian teams. Partnering with Aftermath Ventures, the competition boasts a ₹10,00,000 (approximately $11,695 USD) prize pool and a thrilling format spanning four months.
The open-for-all online tournament will feature three grueling open qualifiers, a round-robin league stage, and a nail-biting double-elimination playoff bracket. Teams from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, and the Maldives will clash for supremacy, with the ultimate victor earning a coveted spot in the LCP Wildcard Playoffs—a stepping stone to the LCP promotion and relegation tournament.
“Legends Ascend is about giving players in South Asia a real shot at competitive League of Legends,” stated Arun Rajappa, Riot Games Country Manager for India & South Asia. “It’s a step towards building a stronger, more connected community.”
