Twitch Rivals has announced its first League of Legends competition of 2020. The Twitch Rivals League of Legends Team Draft Showdown will feature eight teams drafted by selected captains competing for $75,000. Two separate brackets will be held in the tournament, one in North America, and one in Europe.
The tournament will take place from January 21st-January 23rd, and on January 6th, a draft for the tournament was hosted by Daniel "dGon" Gonzales and Erik "Doa" Lonnquist, the latter of whom recently departed from casting the Overwatch League to freelance in multiple titles.
Now that the draft has completed, let's take a look at the teams competing in Twitch Rivals League of Legends Team Draft Showdown and how their respective players were selected in the draft. Each team has been named according to its respective captain.
