The Summoner's Cup is the symbolic trophy awarded to the League of Legends team that wins the world championship. The Louis Vuitton trunk will, according to the announcement, feature the brand's flair alongside elements included from the game.
“This is a historic partnership that speaks to the impact Riot Games and League of Legends has had on the industry over the past nine esports seasons. We welcome the LV brand to our sport and we are eager to share the entire scope of the partnership in the months ahead, in particular on November 10 when the Summoner’s Cup is awarded in Paris," Naz Aletaha, Head of Global Esports Partnerships at Riot Games, said in the announcement.
The League of Legends World Championship kicks off Oct. 2 in Germany.
