League of Legends has proven to be a major name in the gaming space time and time again. Where many thought the title was losing steam last year, it seems that the game has only grown in popularity.
The latest in League of Legends news is the reveal of North America's all-star team, who will represent America in larger tournaments around the world, the first of which will be held in China. This is another stepping stone for the League of Legends community, as it shows once again just how much growing room is left for the game.
The North American team is as follows:
Top Lane: Dyrus from Team SoloMid
AD Carry: DoubleLift from Counter Logic Gaming
Support: Xpecial from Team SoloMid
Jungler: Saintvicious from Curse Gaming
Mid Lane: Scarra from Team Dignitas
Most people familiar with the competitive gaming scene will instantly recognize these players, if not their team names. If there was any doubt that teams create good players, then this probably closes the door on that idea.
The video we've provided shows the teammates discussing what they feel will be a fruitful endeavor. They also talk about the experience of seeing their fans vote for them and just how surreal the whole situation really is. It goes without saying that without Riot Games' success, none of this would have been possible.
While many gamers have their own opinions on who should have won a spot on the team, majority rules. The team as it stands looks to be a frightening force. Notable figures such as Dyrus, DoubleLift and the rest of the team are sure to bring in the fans. This is as big a step for competitive gaming as it is League of Legends as a whole.
