The UCSD League of Legends team boasts one of the strongest collegiate teams in North America. In previous years, our team has consistently placed within the top 8 teams for the west conference. This year, with official support from UCSD Esports, the team hopes to perform even better and take the trophy home. League of Legends is a 5-versus-5 multiplayer-online battle arena game.
