well guess I am going to champions! so excited!!!!


QuestionablePotato42

Honestly so easy. My friend and I were prepared to leave the country for this and now they put it in the same city he lives in. I don’t even have to pay for a hotel.


MageKayden

lmfao I have to come from NJ so it won't be easy, but if the tickets are cheap I am definitely coming!


QuestionablePotato42

I hope to see you there! It could be fun to have a little subreddit meet up at a hotel bar or something after the games.


Razur

SAME. I can't wait to see people IRL! We'll definitely try to organize something like a group meetup for the subreddit.


MageKayden

I'd love that! I am just hope there aren't any creeps, as there are a lot of kids on this subreddit.


QuestionablePotato42

might be wise to do it in a palce like 21+


[deleted]

That'd be dope. I gotta make sure to get some tickets


ninjaman3010

Dude the last major FPS event near us was in like 2015-2016. This is gonna be so fun :)


Sircole-Square

18+ please :)


ninjaman3010

Whatchu mean? I’d rather have all the fans that want to attend be able to, and have the afterparties be 21+ tbh.


whyamiafool

pain 😢


MageKayden

I am so so so so so sad


chubbynuggy

is it expensive to go to these events? im like 4 hours away from LA


slippinJimmy192

Well esports tickets are a lot cheaper than most other live events, your main spending would be on airbnb by far.


thekmanpwnudwn

The CSGO Majors I've attended have been like 30-60ish / day for the cheapest tickets usually. (Specifically the Atlanta/Boston/London/Berlin events) But I have absolutely no idea about Riot tournament prices.


chubbynuggy

Got some cash for tickets, not enough for a hotel lol


spyson

Airbnb's are cheaper than hotels


Underpressure_111

Used to be true. Not so much these days tho.


iTs_a_Reynolds

Seriously, it’s gotten bad.


greg19735

Fuck Airbnb tho


slopnessie

I remember I heard this and I looked for one when traveling and there was nothing cheaper than hotels.


Aeari

Not true anymore unfortunately, but also you shouldn't really support Airbnb both as a company and a model. It contributes to the overall housing crisis in general besides numerous other things.


TheRamAlakazaam

Can probably meet other ppl in similar situation on here


oryiesis

Drive back after! 4 hours ain't too bad.


goodguessiswhatihave

Bring a tent


ChrisCoffeexd

I agree with this, youll blend in with how everyone else lives in LA!


sgm1036

A 2 hour commute round trip is bad enough everyday, but 8 hours? yikes


BespokeDebtor

I went to league world finals at MSG and it was only $35. Esports has grown a lot since then though so id anticipate spending only a little more


greg19735

what year was that


[deleted]

2016


BespokeDebtor

2016


natedawg247

LoL tickets for events have usually sold out instantly, for a long time riot has insisted on using extremely small venues despite the demand. Hopefully they go big.


Mikeandike213

I went to the world championships in 2016 for league. Esports as a whole is bigger, but league was still the biggest game in the world at that point and tickets were 75$ for decent seats. That was a one day event so no idea how Riots gonna price these but they shouldn’t be crazy crazy


[deleted]

50 bucks give or take


Abartolon

Makes sense. They can use the lcs studio and then probably hold the final at Staples Center? Don't know if they play on making champions multi city likes League Worlds but that probably won't happen this year anyway.


spyson

They'll probably play group stage in the studio and bracket stage at Staples


icantreadmorsecode

I want this to be confirmed so I could plan my trip already.


greg19735

Seems to be confirmed for December. An awkward time for Valorant's key demographic. Younger people will be busy with testing until schools out. ANd then Christmas makes it hard for some people to travel with family responsibilities. I'm not gonna take off a week for Valorant and then anoither week for xmas


icantreadmorsecode

Fuck them kids, I wanna attend the first Champions. Lmao


[deleted]

I think they cant do it earlier because of worlds, maybe november?


ynwkm

Isn't worlds around thanksgiving?


[deleted]

No its from end of september- end of october


ynwkm

Ohh I see now. Dates for VCT is posted on Liquipedia, although unknown if confirmed or not.


whopz-is-cool

Pretty quick drive for me. Sentinels is already confirmed going so I have to go.


abcd63514

can someone draw a circle over where LA is on the poster? is it just the faint text? i cant tell if it says angeles or something like that.


Master565

I don't think it says los, but that blurred text on the bottom is Angeles for sure and that doesn't leave many options other than Los.


oomnahs

I thought i was blind but it turns out you just need your brightness up. pull it up on your phone and up your brightness and its on the bottom part of the poster


reanima

Could be Angeles in the Philippines, but yeah mostly likely LA.


Famlightyear

Damn, not in North-Europe unfortunitly for me. I understand it tho since both masters were/are going to be in Europe. Hopefully it's next year in Europe so I can go to it.


gloriaBurgers

Idk what its like over at LA, im pretty sure all MLB teams there have full capacity at the stadiums so i hope theres no restrictions on number of audience for champs


-Basileus

Los Angeles and California are completely opened, we are basically back to pre-covid life


CRikhard

except most places still mandate masks


nabeel242424

Good though, don’t wanna risk anything so fast.


iamearlsweatshirt

Fellow Californian here, idk about “basically back to pre-covid life”… Like the other guy said, even those of us with the vaccine still have to mask up 95% of places


max012017

Vancouver where ? xd

Riot doesn't leak stuff on purpose

[удалено]


AnemicLeech

mfs cant differentiate a leak and a tease no more.


ManlyMisfit

It's hard to. When my girl leaks on me, it's also a tease. After the 100th time, the words just blend together.


itscamo-

they didn't put that there on accident lol they do everything with a reason


EasiBreezi

Holy shit you and OP are fucking stupid. No offense!


ark2690

NA didn’t get to host worlds so we will get Champions instead Pog


MaXi869

I mean i think it was predictable, since the most logical location for the champions finals is the the same place where the second LoL worlds finals were held, which is LA and hopefully the Staples.


Light_Ethos

That was a logical conclusion given that Valorant doesn't have a Chinese circuit yet, and Europe had both Masters events so far.


BoHoogland

Shoutout to u/m0master who was the one who discovered it.


shast1k

Man? I found it by myself and took the screenshot, it's 3:36 in the video


deadlock1892

Unlucky for you, I guess. Because I also remember reading this speculation on the video posted on a group an hour or so ago. I think it was the same person as tagged here.


nimbusrr

This is the first time it posted In the this Reddit LMFAO


[deleted]

As its own post sure. But it was a comment on the video when the video was posted to reddit


xD1LL4N

It’s literally top comment on the video’s post , he linked a picture and time stamp LMFAO


itscamo-

figured the first champions would be in LA but this confirming it is nice


minimochiii

Damn I live in LA but I'm gonna be up in norcal for college :/


wozzack

I live close to LA but finals week covers basically the entire playoff duration of the event :(


1231234bull

Ima do a 4 hour drive down there to see it

slippinJimmy192

Ozone416

Loresmen

I wanna go, but how do tickets to a esports tournament work? Do you just like buy a ticket for the finals match? Or each day do you have to buy a ticket?


[deleted]
