PHILIPPINES, JANUARY 19, 2018Lenovo, the world’s leading PC manufacturer, announced that it will once again host “Legion of Champions Series II” (LoC) (formerly League of Champions), a major gaming competition in Asia. In collaboration with Intel, the second edition of this gaming battle is expected to bring even more excitement to the regional gaming scene with three new markets joining the championship. Teams from eight markets (Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam) will compete in their local finals, and the winning teams will gather in Bangkok, Thailand, later this month for the ultimate showdown. 

Michael Ngan, Lenovo Philippines Country General Manager said: “E-sports and gaming are not only burgeoning, but gaining popularity beyond gamers to a more general audience. For gaming fans, e-sports competitions are the Olympic Games of the 21st century. As a leader in technological innovation supporting this trend, we want to continue building top-notch gaming experiences for enthusiast players not only through our product offerings but also through providing a platform to nurture these gamers and grow the community. Lenovo is delighted to host the Legion of Champions Series II, a first-of-its-kind regional competition involving eight markets.” 

George Chacko, Director of Global Account for Lenovo, Intel Asia Pacific and Japan said: “We are very excited to once again be part of the “Legion of Champions” tournament.
