Leg 1 of the NGL Online League 2012 for League of Legends is gearing up for an exciting finish this week. After 11 weeks of intense battles on Summoners Rift, the 29 clans currently playing in the league will face off in their respective divisions over the next three days to try and bag those last few points needed to secure their promotion into a higher division. Next week will see playoff games happening before a two week rest period, and then Leg 2 will kick into action on the 19 June 2012.

Playoffs happen between the top and bottom placed teams of all of the divisions, and is a final opportunity for clans to land a coveted spot in a higher division. The playoff structure looks like this:

This week saw the start of the NGL League of Legends Online League 2012, as all 32 teams who played in the seeding tournament in February have now been placed into their respective division. We chatted to the two Head Admins for the league, Frans “A10 Greep3r” Scheepers and Marnewicke “Switch19″ Loubser to get some insight into how League of Legends is faring in a competitive environment in SA.

NAG: The official online league kicked off this week. How successful was the Seeding Tournament in placing clans in their respective divisions?

A10 Greep3r: The seeding tournament was very successful, and from the start we saw that the placing of the individual groups into their respective seeding groups was a winning idea. Each group had their tough opponents, and most of the expected top seeds in the groups came through and made it into the Premier Division. All in all we have a very tough Premier Division and the top seeds in the First Division stand a good chance of going up into Premier Division with the end of Leg 1 relegations.

Switch19: The seeding tournament was a huge success, and the top team shone in their groups with the remaining teams battling hard for a spot in Division 1 and 2.

Registrations for a local Starcraft II league went live yesterday. The league, hosted in 2012 by PolarfluKe and NGL (NAG Gaming League), will consist of an online component as well as a grand final event which will be held at the annual rAge expo later this year.

Registrations for the online league run from Thursday 23 February to 22 March, and the first leg will kick off on 23 March 2012. “The online league will be hosted on the PolarfluKe website, and will consist of 3 legs leading up to a Grand Final event which take place on the main show floor at rAge in October,” said Matthew Merks, managing director of PolarfluKe.

The MSSA has confirmed that PolarfluKe will host all of their online championships for Starcraft II this year.

The collaboration between PolarfluKe, MSSA and the NGL will see a Grand Final event being held at rAge unlike any other.  Players wishing to participate in this league can go to www.polarfluke.co.za to register.

 

Seeding games for the NGL League of Legends Online League kicked off this past weekend. Thirty teams are currently playing in the seeding tournament in Groups A, B, C and D, and will be ranked according to total game wins to determine which division they get placed into.
