uLoL Rivalries with Yahoo Esports debuts this November

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve partnered with Riot Games to bring you uLoL Rivalries by Yahoo Esports.

The upcoming tournament will bring together 10 teams representing five of the biggest rivalries in collegiate esports to play League matches every week for five weeks. To make things even more exciting, players and fans will be able to vote on exactly which colleges will be playing. You can vote every day for your favorite rivalries (I’m looking at you, Cal/Stanford); the top five vote-getters will form the 10-team inaugural season.

Voting kicks off September 19, with the season starting up November 4. We’ll be announcing more details about the series – including how to vote! – on Yahoo Esports Live today, so make sure to keep your eye on our Twitch stream at 3:00 pm PDT.

You know Taylor Cocke will be pulling for his Cal brethren to beat up on those damn trees (Go Bears!). Follow the UC Berkeley alum on Twitter @taylorcocke.
