The League of Legends 2024 World Championship is set to be another legendary moment in gaming history. Icons of the craft of gaming will take the stage to determine who takes home the crown.

Linkin Park Chosen For The Anthem
The 2024 World Championships are going to be one of the most exciting eSports events of the entire year. Riot Games are known for their nearly perfect music taste when selecting a score, anthem, or theme song for any of their content. This year’s World Champion chip anthem will be played by Linkin Park with their new hit single, Heavy is the Crown. The announcement came on September 24th, 2024, along with an animated music video of the band in the style of the League of Legends Arcane show.
Fans reacted positively to the song trends on Twitter (now X), successfully bringing uniting them for the iconic League of Legends World Championship. Some remain skeptical of the new singer Emily Armstrong due to previous controversies with Danny Masterson and Scientology. Regardless, the song is shaping up to be one of the most successful rally cries for eSports in recent times.
