Without giving us time to recover from the emotional hangover of the end of the Super League and the rest of the European regional leagues, LoL’s EMEA Masters 2023 arrived in the blink of an eye, where 28 teams will face each other looking to become champions.
Yesterday, March 3rd, Riot Games unveiled their partnerships for the EMEA Masters; a new competition focusing on ERLs that will kick off in a few hours.
Riot Games Partnerships for EMEA Masters
Riot Games has been known for creating solid partnerships with international companies for its various tournaments. This year’s EMEA Masters will be no different, and Riot’s management has let it be known.
Yesterday, on the official EMEA Masters Twitter account, Riot’s partners were announced. For this competition, they have partnered with Secretlab and Warner Music.
Riot’s first partner, Secretlab, will provide all the gaming chairs for the tournament. Warner Music, meanwhile, will be the official music provider for the EMEA tournaments.
