Riot has officially launched Premier, and it has now been integrated with the VCT circuit. Players can register their teams and start competing against other teams based on their divisions. Each team will have to play a specific map on the given dates and collect points based on the wins and losses. The top teams from there will qualify for the next tournament stage, and Riot has revealed the complete schedule for Premier Launch, which you can find below.
