Regions Clash in the Beyond the Bandlewood Runeterra Invitational!

To celebrate the release of Bandle City as the 10th and final region coming to Legends of Runeterra, players from around the globe are gathering to represent their favorite in-game region in the Beyond the Bandlewood Runeterra Invitational!

On August 28 at 8:00am PT, 10 creators from the global LoR community will take to battle in the name of their region, fighting it out through a series of round robin matches for a chance to win a donation to the charity of their choice. All of the tournament action can be seen on twitch.tv/legendsofruneterra as it unfolds, with casters @CasanovaCasts and @Scarzig!

Format Details:

Participants will be divided into two conferences -- Runeterra East or Runeterra West -- based on the region that they are assigned. From there, they will play a best-of-three match against each other in a two-group round robin format.The triumphant two teams from each conference will then face off in a final best-of-three match to determine the grand prize winner.

Players will create three decks based on the region that they are assigned to with a trio of guidelines:

• Decks must only contain champions from their region, or multi-region champions from Bandle City that also include their region.
• Decks must include at least one champion card.
• Decks can include up to 9 cards from outside their assigned region.
• No duplicate region pairs are allowed.

Runeterra East Conference:

Region	Player
Ionia	Oooooozzy
Piltover & Zaun	MegaM0gwai

Runeterra West Conference:

Prize Pool Breakdown:

The stakes are high! Proving which region stands tall above the rest* (in a friendly, restricted format that does not, in any way, determine the strength of each individual region in Legends of Runeterra*) is important. However, that’s not all that’s at stake - each competitor is playing for a charity of their choice, with donations broken down as such:

• 1st: $10k donation
• 2nd: $5k donation
• 3-10th: $1k donation each

Once more - check out all the action and cheer on your favorite region when the Runeterra Invitational kicks off at 8:00AM PT on Saturday, August 28 with casters @CasanovaCasts and @Scarzig on the Legends of Runeterra Twitch & YouTube channels.
