EMP Expands Riot Games Partnership as New German National Partner for the LEC!

As we gear up for a hot 2021 Summer Season of action at the League of Legends European Championship (LEC), we’re delighted to announce that apparel brand EMP will be joining us as a National Partner of the German LEC broadcast!

EMP is an officially licensed seller of League of Legends merchandise, creating stylish designs based on some of the most iconic characters to hit the Rift. You’ll be seeing EMP appear throughout the German LEC broadcasts, highlighting some of their incredible LoL merch designed to show off your love of the game and the champions within. We’re extremely excited that they’ve chosen to take their partnership even further and work with us at the LEC.

“We’re looking forward to expanding our collaboration with Riot Games, also in the area of sponsorship and events,” says Head of Social & Brand Media at EMP, Philipp Bensmann. “We hope for a fair and exciting season with many unique interactions within the European League of Legends community.”

“Our company differentiates itself through our exclusive merchandise products, including licensed League of Legends merch, and our close relationship with fans,” adds EMP’s Chief Digital Officer, Sascha Müller. “That’s why collaboration with an exclusive, professional and community-adjacent league such as the LEC is an important further strategic step for our gaming engagement.”

EMP are joining us for what is set to be an incredibly exciting season of action. MAD Lions are returning from an impressive Mid-Season Invitational run to prove that they’re not just a one-time winning team. Fnatic are making huge roster changes in an effort to regain their place at the top of the leaderboards. No matter who you’re rooting for, it’s sure to be an incredible season.
