League of Legends: Rift Rivals 2018 ranking this July 2
For those who might not know, Rift Rivals 2018 is an event taking place in July 2018 for the game League of Legends. As it concerns, teams from two or three regions meet at each in five separate international LAN tournaments. As we expect, China is seemingly the most potential region in this race since we have all the four teams coming to the World Contenders (top 10). They include Royal Never Give Up (#1), Invictus Gaming (#2), EDward Gaming (#6) and Rogue Warriors (#8).
*1st tournament: Southeast Asia, Japan, Oceania
*2nd tournament: Vietnam, CIS and Turkey
*3rd tournament: Brazil, Latin America North and Latin America South
*4th tournament: North America and Europe

On the other hand, the second potential region is Korea since three of the four teams also makes it to the top 10.
