Intel Extreme Master Will Not Play League of Legends Game Again

One of the biggest esports events in the world, namely Intel Extreme Master, recently announced that for the next Intel Extreme Master event, there will be no more League of Legends game matches or commonly known as LOL.

After 6 consecutive years, Intel Extreme Master competed in League of Legends, this time they were forced to stop the match.
This had to be done because the Pro players from League of Legends, had been locked in several pro events in Korea and China, so they were not allowed to compete elsewhere. Even at the 8th world championship in Jakarta yesterday, amateur league of legends players were competing, because pro players were not allowed.

In addition, the Intel Extreme Master prize, which is not as big as the Pro League events in China and Korea, also makes pro players lazy to take part in the game championship at Intel Extreme Master. Besides that, there is also a schedule that always crashes between pro events from League of Legends, with Intel Extreme Master.

But ESL, as the organizer of Intel Extreme Master, has not yet closed one hundred percent of the possibility of eliminating League of Legends in their next event. If the schedule from the LCS can be looser, then Intel Extreme Master still has the possibility to continue to compete in League of Legends. But for the time being, according to what the Vice President of ESL, Michal Carmac Blicharz, said, Intel Extreme Master will stop League of Legends from the next IEM event.

With no League of Legends, will there be Dota 2 in Intel Extreme Master? Only time can answer this question.
