The past season of League of Legends was arguably the most intense and thrilling we have seen to date. The introduction of the Esports World Cup in the international circuit provided an unparalleled opportunity for players and teams from around the globe to display their skills.
As is customary with League, selecting the outstanding players over the years is no easy feat. Teams are somewhat easier to identify. Simply looking at their accomplishments, comparing them to expectations, gives a pretty clear picture of who was the strongest team in 2024. Naturally, it’s usually the one that clinches the World Championship.
Evaluating players is more complex, as their positions, statistics, and influences have to be weighed in. Personal interpretations often play a role in this, and the ranking here is similar. We understand statistics sometimes narrate a distinct tale. They are taken into account, but major matches and performances that contributed to the success of players and teams are emphasized.
