Japan's largest tournament for the world's #1 eSports title, the League of Legends Japan League 2015 (put on by SANKO) will begin on January 24, 2015. We are intending to provide a more powered-up product, so we hope all of our fans will please look forward to the new season.

Rascal Jester (2014 Runner Up)
Ozone Rampage
DetonatioN RabbitFive
Salvage Javelin (Qualified from Challenger Tournament)
7th Heaven (Qualified from Challenger Tournament)

Overall Prize Pool: 2,000,000 yen (roughly $17,000 USD)

Season 1 Format

Each team will play each other team in two Bo1s across a ten week season, once on each side of the map. There will be three matches a day. From Week 2 on, these will start at 6:00 PM JST. Ranking will be determined by the number of wins. After 10 weeks, there will be a playoff between the top 3 teams spanning the next two weeks.

During the playoff, the #2 and #3 teams will play a Bo3. The winner will then face off with the #1 team in a Bo5 for the championship.

Grand Championship

There are two seasons throughout the year, which feed into a Grand Championship at the end of the year. The two teams with the most Championship Points at the end will play off for the Grand Championship.

Championship Points distribution

First Place: 100
Second Place: 60
Third Place: 30

Prize Pool Distribution

Grand Championship:

1st: 1,000,000 yen ($8,400 USD)

So covering LJL is something I've wanted to do for a long time, and through LiquidLegends I've got a great vehicle to bring you guys news about my favorite underground scene. These guys have been pushing really hard to establish themselves without even having a server to play on, and they've managed to put together an amazing league with pro teams, team houses, and an offline studio with a live audience and broadcasters. The prize pool might not be that big, and they don't have a seed to the Wild Cards yet, but with the Japanese Server launch supposedly coming in 2015, I'm hoping we can show them some support and watch them grow!

If there's one thing I know about Japan, it's that they love waifus, and league has plenty of those. I'm predicting league to take off there

I don't know if he still plays, but there was a Jungler on Detonation RF named Awakerr. If he's still on the team, then people should really look out for him.

Yup, Awaker is still the jungler for RF. Did you play with him before or something?

Its awesome to see how much they are investing while still not having a server, hopefully Riot finally gets things going.
