Hong Kong’s major League of Legends tournament, “Return of the Legends” is right around the corner. Last year’s edition of the tournament featured four teams. Team Europe, Team NA, Team Taiwan/HK, and Team Mainland China faced off against each other for a grand prize of $300,000 HKD (roughly $38,000 USD)
This year, the competition has a more exclusive feel to it. The event will only feature a single clash between two teams. The epic faceoff will be held between Team West and Team East. Once more, former League of Legends pro players will return to the big stage in Hong Kong. This time, a prize pool of 100,000 HKD is up for grabs.
