Despite its age, the game still has over 10 million monthly players.
"When League of Legends announced Season One in 2010, it was a seminal moment for eSports," commented Lima Sky's COO Matt Turetzky.
"It was the moment when a hugely popular game crossed over into being a sport. That's what we believe we can create here."
