Esports Entertainment Group Inc (NASDAQ:GMBL) has announced that its subsidiaries EGL and Helix eSports have partnered with Riot Games to host the Summer 2021 North American LCS Proving Grounds League of Legends esports tournament.

The grand finals offer a $10,000 prize pool, and teams will earn tiered qualification points based on their placement for a shot to move into the LCS Proving Grounds penultimate events.

The 2021 LCS season is the fourth year of Riot’s North American League Championship Series, a professional esports league for the multiplayer online battle arena PC game League of Legends, the company said.
