OPL 2020, Legacy Esports Kickoff 2nd Split with 2-0 Victory

The Oceania Pro League home to the eight professional teams based in the different countries within the Oceanic region have begun last June 5, 2020 with Legacy Esports coming out on top defeating the 4-time OPL champions, Dire Wolves. With the team also securing a 2-0 standing after defeating ORDER on June 6, 2020 putting them on the number 1 seed for the first week alongside Pentanet.GG and Avant Gaming, who will be their opponent for the second day in week 2.

Legacy Esports Split 1 Champions

Legacy Esports have been a part of the Oceania Pro League ever since the formation of the region’s first Riot Games’ officiated championship series, the Oceania Pro League back in 2015. The team has always competed against the best but always fell short at the last moment being 4-time runner-ups getting bested either by Dire Wolves or Chief Esports Club. Fortunately for them, the team would secure a much deserved victory in the 2020 Split 1 season but with great cost.

With the beginning of the 2020 season, Legacy Esports underwent a massive remodel of their roster bringing up fresh recruits to the main roles and returning star jungler, Babip going home to bring a dynamic duo with Tally who recently lane swapped to the Mid Lane. The team went on to secure an 18-3 1st seed standing in Split 1 wherein fate would then again let them face the team that has denied them the championships for so many times in the finals – Dire Wolves whom they ultimately defeated.

The Oceania Pro League

The Oceania Pro League is the competitive championship region found in the Ocean Region (OCE). It is home to players mainly from Australia and New Zealand.

The Future of OCE
