If you've ever wanted to meet a Rioter, or have ever wanted to meet more than a dozen at once, your best chance short of being hired here is to come watch the WCG Grand Finals with us on Saturday, October 2nd, 2010 at the LA Convention Center.
We're going to have the top League of Legends teams from North America, Europe, China and South-East Asia all flying out and competing in the WCG Grand Finals on the main-stage for $10,000 and the title of WCG Champion.
League of Legends matches will start on Thursday 9/30 (group stage), and Friday 10/1 (playoffs), culminating in the Saturday, 10/2 (Grand Final, main stage).
Riot is going to be at the event for the entire WCG, but we'll be there in force on Saturday 10/2 cheering on the teams on the main stage, playing LoL against the crowds at our booth, giving away t-shirts, Riot Singed, and a lot of new swag.
If you want to watch the events, but arent able to make the trek to LA, dont worry well be providing plenty of coverage online. In fact, you can check out the WCG North American Finals this weekend, which will be streamed on the WCG USA Coverage Site at 4:30 PM PST this Saturday, September 11th.
