Despite all the efforts over the years and the creation of a very loyal fan base, Riot Games has technically already put an end to LLA as we know it by the time the new 2025 season begins.
The new League of Legends esports plan for our region is that the Americas will be treated as North and South, That means that the Brazilian league remains as the base and the North American league remains as the other.
This means that LLA is inevitably going to disappear. The point is that there will be teams with a guaranteed place in both – let’s call them – divisions. The thing is that this will not be decided until autumn 2024.
If we could choose a couple of teams that, due to geographical location and results, had the chance to compete in this new scheme for the entire continent, they would be Estraldue to its recent history in the competition and perhaps Rainbow 7. Although, there is also the possibility of Isurus which is very representative of southern Latam.
What would happen to the other teams? Well, it’s not that they are going to disappear, but they will have to participate in Tier 2 competitions, a much lower level. In this precise case it would be LVP and academies from each region.

LLA: League of Legends esports is looking to have a stronger global competition
As we mentioned, despite the growth in the audience of each League of Legends esports competition that takes place on the American continent, the reality is that LLA It was not at the same level as that of Brazil or North America.
When they arrived at international competitions, the teams could not, even though they were given space. This does not mean that the different institutions did not make efforts or seek to improve, but the level of competition is very uneven.
They brought players from Asia, they tried to put together much better, but the level did not improve. According to what was said in the statement, the sport will be more optimized and easier to follow, there will be more events and it aims to aim for financial sustainability.
By reducing Tier 1 equipment, the profits will be greater for them. In this way, talent will also be concentrated and fans will have an optimized ecosystem with higher quality games.
We’ll see how this whole issue ends and well, LLA It will have its last competition at its closing in 2024. Don’t miss any of our news at Google news and also join Discord to talk about this and other topics.
