SOOP LoL Invitational pits Cloud9, FlyQuest, and LOS against Korea’s best

FlyQuest Cloud9 LOS LCK Americas

Americas fans who missed out on MSI can look forward to a second shot this weekend. Streaming platform SOOP has confirmed a full cross-regional League of Legends invitational on June 26–27, matching three North American and Brazilian rosters against elite Korean competition in what is shaping up to be the most compelling unofficial international of the off-season. It gives fans something to watch and also functions as a content investment for SOOP. Everyone wins.

The event — officially titled the Cross Regional – SOOP LoL INVITATIONAL — is structured as a nine-match series, all best-of-ones, split across two days. Representing “Team KR” are KIWOOM DRX, DN SOOPers and Dplus KIA. Facing them as “Team AMER” are Cloud9 and FlyQuest from the LCS, alongside Brazil’s LOS Grandes from the CBLOL. All nine matches will be streamed exclusively on SOOP’s Cross-Regional channel.
