The League of Legends Worlds have just come to an end, but the world’s largest MOBA never stops. A week from the end of the season, we are already preparing for the next great event. After months of voting, the players who will represent the various regions in the All-Star 2017 have been announced.
In addition, the competition will be completely different to what we had enjoyed in 2016 in Barcelona. On this occasion, the different regions competed amongst each other to see who is the best. However, this year some legendary formats like the 1 vs 1 tournament will also be on display.
In Europe, the big surprise has been the presence of Paul «sOAZ» Boyer. The European player had been criticized for his performance in most of the Worlds’ big matches. However, he has been finally chosen by the fans. Misfits is the big winner in this region, as two players, Tristan «PowerOfEvil» Schrage and Lee «IgNar» Dong-geun, will represent the European continent.
America is, as always, very loyal to its top players and a good healthy dose of TSM has made way for the roster, despite the fact that the famous US team did not shine in the last important event of the season.
As always, both Korean and Chinese regions have monstrous formations. They have the best jungler and bot lane. The other «minor» regions also show up in their own row of various known faces, which could give us some unexpected surprises.
