Hello! ​As you may have seen on IG, starting this month and heading into 2026, I will be taking on new responsibilities and handling most of the League of Legends (LoL) product work in the region, focusing mainly on publishing but also supporting Esports. As I was not involved in this area previously, I am excited to dive into it, even if only in a supportive role to the very eager to collaborate, our esports partner, Vanguard. ​Regarding Esports, I am aware there is a lot of potential for improvement to bring back the LoL esport hype! To initiate this change, I am planning to host a call with various community leaders and passionate fans in the second week of December to discuss the state of Esports. (Note: If you are an active AL team management personnel, team captain, or talent, we will schedule a separate, more focused call. However, you are still absolutely welcome to join this general community discussion as well!) ​My call-out to you is this: If you are someone who is passionate about LoL in the region and interested in seeing things improve, I invite you to this meeting in the second week of December. We can chat about what's to come and how we can bring back the hype! If you are interested in joining, please let me know so I can invite you to this call where you can speak your mind. ​Hopefully, working together and with Vanguard, we can make MENA LoL esports exciting again!
