LCS Lock In

Riot Games started the season big when it announced a competition to grow North American League of Legends esports. And the LCS Lock In tournament ended up surpassing expectations with both viewership, stats, and content. Fierce rivalries developed between the competing teams. But in the end, Team Liquid beat the odds and won the competition. TL took home the $150 thousand grand prize and used the $50 donation of their choice to the Gamers and Online Harassment Hotline

Following the 2021 Lock In tournament, LCS continues every weekend with exciting matches between the best teams. League of Legends esports certainly saw a boost through its recent events. For now, fans will need to tune in to the weekly games for the next big stat.
