One of the world’s biggest e-sports tournaments is kicking off this weekend in a format even bigger than last year and the excitement is understandably at its peak.
League of Legends
Otherwise known as the ‘LOL’ or ‘Worlds’, the League of Legends is an annual competition consisting of the group stage, knockout tournament and the Grand Final.
Hosted by the game’s developers, Riot Games, this year’s Worlds are set to start on 23 September in China with a Play-In Stage 1, whereas the tournament spreads all the way to 4 November where the highly-anticipated LOL World Championship Finals 2017 will determine the big winner.
And while the players around the globe wait for the patch to be unlocked, here is their chance to spice it all up by following this year’s action and – why not – setting up a responsible bet or two.
Punters will be delighted to hear that Bet365 has traditionally prepared a wide range of betting markets for the upcoming LOL World Championship so if you want to grab the very best odds for the upcoming tournament make sure to open an account with Bet365 through this link.

Corki at 3/1 betting odds and Kogmaw with a 7/2 price are set as the frontrunners to inflict the Highest Total Damage to the Champs in a Map, which is another highly intriguing betting market offered at Bet365.
