League of Legends Group Stage: Faker returns
The world’s best sixteen teams of League of Legends will compete with each other for the biggest title in Paris. This is a group stage match, and the winners of these stages’ teams will get the chance to go into the playoffs.
The twist this time is something called a “fearless draft.” Basically it stops teams from just repairing the same champion picks over and over so they had a new rule in this world cup by switching things up and thinking on their feet. Teams that can adapt fast will have a read advantage.
The group stage winners move on to playoffs on July 17 and the Grand Final on July 19. In this LOL tournament fans want some close matches and lots of last-second wins.
Free Fire

Matches kick off on July 15 and the event’s grand final on July 18. If you like fast action, then this event is for you.

Dota 2 has already finished their group stage and now things get serious. Twelve teams that did not automatically qualify are heading into the Survivor Stage, where they are fighting just to keep their tournament alive.

Playoffs start from July 16, bringing the field down to the final eight. The grand final is on July 19, and the prize pool is very big. Teams are giving their best to get the crown.
