Welcome to IGN Australia's League of Legends tournament snapshot! The idea behind this doc is to give you a quick reference guide for the upcoming LoL events in Australia and a handy calendar for international tournaments you can't miss.
We'll be updating this regularly — we know OPL Split 2 begins after League of Origins, for example, but we're not sure exactly when. We want the community's help whenever possible, so if you're a player or an event organiser get in touch. If you’re a super fan and notice something is missing - or we have a placeholder time, let us know! You can reach me at esportsau@ign.com or you can just click here to send me an email.
Oh, and be sure to check out the rest of our esports hub, as we have similar schedules for a bunch of other top games. Cheers!
