FunPlus Phoenix Are Your League Of Legends Worlds 2019 Champions
The League of Legends Worlds 2019 has ended with China’s FunPlus Phoenix winning the entire tournament. The team defeated Europe’s G2 Esports 3-0 in the grand finals.
To recap, the LPL first seed team had an underwhelming start to Worlds in the group stage. Despite that, they pulled through with a really impressive 3-0 victory against G2 Esports. While the latter was a crowd favourite, especially with their upset against SKT, the team couldn’t get a clutch play to secure even a single win against China’s finest.
Furthermore, the Chinese team outright said that G2 Esports didn’t perform especially well during the fight in the obligatory post-match interview.

The prize pool has yet to be determined since the crowd-funding contributions (via LoL in-game item sales) haven’t been finalized yet. But rest assured that FunPlus Phoenix will win the lion’s share, which is 37.5% of the ever-growing prize pool. G2 Esports will win 13%, while third and fourth place (SK Telecom T1 and Invictus Gaming) will win 7%.
