One of the most popular online video games out there, League of Legends is well-known for having one of the most-watched World Championships in Esports. The League of Legends World Championship, also commonly known as Worlds, is an annual professional tournament hosted by Riot Games and is the culmination of each season. What’s more, BetNow has released betting lines on the upcoming 2022 League of Legends World Championship and is one of the only online gaming sites to do so. Teams compete for the champion title, which is the 70-pound Summoner’s Cup. In 2018, the final was watched by 99.6 million people, breaking the previous year’s viewer record.
In this update article, SBS will be going over the BetNow odds for the League of Legends World Championship and also some other thoughts about using the website.
Per BetNow’s official website, the current favorite for the League of Legends World Championship is Gen. G at +210. In the past, this squad has done a lot of damage with championships in 2014 and 2017 along with a runner-up appearance in 2016. Gen G. was also able to reach the semi-finals during the 2021 tournament in Reykjavík and is looking to make a big splash again this season. For last season’s tournament, Edward Gaming was able to take home the crown and they are currently slated as +860 in BetNow’s latest gaming lines report.
In the history of the tournament, teams from South Korea have won the lion’s share of titles with six overall championships. In addition to those six titles, South Korean squads have also been runner-ups at least five times, including in the 2021 World Championship. Teams from China have also performed well with three world titles, including the 2021 championship, and also three runner-up appearances since 2011. T1 (+710) from South Korea is the most successful team in the tournament’s history, having won three world championships.
The 2022 League of Legends World Championship is an ongoing event and is slated to end on November 5th. In addition to some of the squads mentioned above, JD Gaming is another contender at +260 along with Top Esports at +285. That slate rounds out the top five from the BetNow latest futures betting report for the 2022 World Championship, but those odds could shift depending on what happens during the latest slate of gaming action across the League of Legends tournament. With 24 teams across four host cities, the tournament will be fought to the bitter end with the finals set to take place later this month into November. Also per sources, the League of Legends World Championship has gained tremendous success and popularity over the years, making it among the world’s most prestigious and watched gaming tournaments.
