Fnatic
Fnatic is one of the world's largest Esports organizations, with world-class teams in a variety of games, including League of Legends, where they have become one of Europe's most dominating powers.
Fnatic made LOL history in 2011 when they won the Riot season 1 championship, establishing themselves as a worldwide force in the LOL Esport industry.
They presently have a 65 percent all-time victory rate and a 1202 ELO rating, which places them among the top ten LOL teams in the world.

JD Gaming is without a doubt one of the most interesting Esports teams to watch this year, having gone undefeated in April and now holding a GG ELO ranking of 1209.
Invictus Gaming
After cruising through the preliminary rounds, they dominated the 2018 global championship, beating European team Fnatic 3-0 in the grand final.

FunPlus Phoenix
After being named global LOL Champions in 2019, FunPlus Phoenix departed Paris with $834,375, solidifying their position as a LOL powerhouse not only in Asia but throughout the globe.
Despite a heartbreaking loss in the LPL semifinals to JD Gaming, FunPlus Phoenix remains one of China's most admired teams due to their trophy cabinet.
FPX is the top LOL team in China, with an ELO of 1248.
Cloud 9
At the present, Cloud 9 gaming is the top LOL squad in North America. They won the LCS Spring 2020 competition after defeating FlyQuest 3-0 in a best-of-five series.
Their path to the final was far from simple, as they defeated NA powerhouses 100 Thieves and Evil Geniuses on their way to the title.

Kingzone DragonX
Kingzone DragonX is one of Asia's largest Esports teams, having been established in 2010.

G2 Esports
The 2019 world championship finalists, renamed ‘Gamers2' in 2015, now sit atop the European leaderboards as the greatest team in Europe, as shown by their 1297 GG ELO.
The German team won the LEC Spring 2020 event with a convincing 3-0 win against Fnatic Gaming, putting them on track for a successful year in the LOL scene.
T1 Esports
With a 1307 ELO, three-time global champions SK Telecom T1 have climbed to the top of the world LOL rankings.
T1's present position may be due to their victory in the LCK 2020 competition when they defeated Gen G Esports 3-0 to take first place.
They now have a 74 percent victory rate, which is incredible given that they've played 325 professional LOL games since their start.
T1 has won more global titles than any other team (2013, 2015, and 2016), and they are true men's monsters.
