CHARITY

Additionally, Riot will match 25% of all Championship Ashe sales during Worlds 2017 to be donated to three global charities. You can vote on which cause you support the most—the higher your Honor level, the more weight your vote carries. The highest-voted charity will get 50% of the total pool, and the remaining amount will be split equally between the other two.

Right now, the total prize pool is $4,072,101 and fans have contributed $1,850,000! All purchases of Championship Ashe and the Championship Ward will continue to funnel into the prize pool until November 5 at 11:59 PM PT. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates and continue sending your energy to the team you deem worthy!

SUPPORT YOUR TEAM

You can also support your favorite team directly through a purchase of team icons or emotes. Keep in mind, these in-game items are not factored into the prize pool.

  • Emote/icon bundle: 30%
  • Emote: 30%
  • Icon: 50%
