Empyrean Games: Arena Challenge Winners

With the return of Arena last month, we held the Empyrean Games - a dynamic creator-exclusive challenge across the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) region. Over 100 of the region’s top League creators, and their communities, had the chance to win Empyrean skins, Champion statues, plushes, chests and more.

Empyrean Games was the first challenge to be held on FTW (For The Win), a new platform for real-time leaderboards and content creator discovery, allowing players to follow along with ease. 

Without further ado, here are the creators taking home the rewards!

Empyrean Games consisted of six distinct objectives with their own leaderboards and rewards, plus one SECRET objective that we’re only just revealing now.

Hextech Heist
