Los Ratones are the latest team to join the competitor’s ranks at Red Bull League of Its Own 2024, a one-of-a-kind League of Legends showcase event.
Descending on the Accor Arena in Paris, France on December 15th, some of Europe’s League of Legends esports teams will go head to head with the legendary South Korean side (and Worlds 2024 winners) T1, in an array of showdowns.
The Red Bull League of Its Own 2024 teams are Gentle Mates, G2 Esports, Karmine Corp, NNO Old, T1 and Caedrel’s new League of Legends roster, Los Ratones.
More than 15,000 fans are due to gather in Paris with thousands more watching online.
“The invitational promises fans an esports tournament chock full of surprises, with unexpected matchups and innovative rule twists that make League of Its Own an event like no other,” said Red Bull in a press release. “As the showcase gears up to be the ultimate celebration of League of Legends in all its forms, the event will feature elite teams including last year’s champions G2, Paris’ own Karmine Corp, and Germany’s streamer collective NNO Old.”

Unfortunately for BrokenBlade and G2, that scenario will not be happening as G2 exited Worlds 2024 last weekend.
Earlier this year, Caedrel condemned ‘toxic’ Karmine Corp ultras over tweets involving Faker and Red Bull League of its Own 2023.
Red Bull League of Its Own will be broadcast live from the Accor Arena on 15 December via the Red Bull Twitch and Red Bull Gaming YouTube.
