Selected content creators play for 11 days (from March 10 to March 21) to determine who achieves the highest win ratio and takedowns (kills and assists) in their Arena matches.
After this period, the ladder winner will receive rewards and the opportunity to organize the pairs, together with the ladder subchampion. All players will then compete in duos in a best-of-three Arena lobbies format on March 23.
The winning duo of the tournament will be invited to Riot Games Spain events and next online challenges.
