The new tournament titled Fandom Legends: Teamfight Tactics is schedule to begin on December 1, 2020 and will span across the entire month of December.<\/p>\n
As per Fandom, the tournament will see 16 players competing each week for a prize pool of $2K in hopes to qualify for the State Farm Championship Finals which will take place on Sunday, December 21, 2010, with a grand total prize pool of $5K. Two champions from each weekly tournament will play in Fandom Legends: Teamfight Tactics<\/a>, allowing for an open opportunity for anyone to compete in the qualifiers.<\/p>\n Head of Gaming and Esports Sales at Fandom. Sean Kiely says the newly announced tournament will “open a path for new and upcoming talent to make a name for themselves online.” Riot has been a partner with State Farm since 2018 after the company joined as a sponsor of League of Legends, yet they will seek to raise the stakes with them now getting involved with the Mid-Seasonal Invitational, All-Star event, and the 2021 World Championship.<\/p>\n Riot Games has had a busy 2019 with the company also announcing the launch of Dutch and Belgian League of Legends esports leagues<\/a>, as well as the company’s Head of Global Esports Partnerships & Business Development also being named to Adweek’s 2019 Young Influentials list<\/a>.<\/p>\n Amateur events are great for the esports community, so it’s great to see organizations coming together and honoring such an event. With Teamfight Tactics being a relatively smaller esports scene, the new partnership will prove great exposure for the game’s fans and community. Teamfight Tactics has raked in a large fanbase of League of Legends players and fans, accumulating over 33 million players each month, so the new partnership could prove to be extremely beneficial for all organizations involved.<\/p>\n Fans will be able to stream Fandom Legends: Teamfight Tactics live on Twitch beginning December 1, 5, 12, and 19, with the December 21 final also streamed on Twitch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The new tournament titled Fandom Legends: Teamfight Tactics is schedule to begin on December 1, 2020 and will span across the entire month of December.
