According to Riot Games' international esports department, the League of Legends World Championship will be held in Iceland. It was already decided last month that the tournament would be taken from China and organized somewhere in Europe. Taking this decision in line with some problems based on Covid-19, the team turned their eyes to Rejkjavik, which was previously organized by MSI (Mid-Season Invitational). After receiving largely positive feedback from the event held in May, Worlds will now be held there as well. Just like MSI, LoL Worlds 2021 will take place under strict health measures and without a live audience.
