The players will receive the rings alongside the Summoner’s Cup in Reykjavik, Iceland. Each player will receive a personalized championship ring with the player’s summoner name and team tricode in the custom-fitted piece.

"The Ring was a challenge that we gladly accepted. In the end, we succeeded in bringing together the identities and design languages of both partners in this unique Ring design,” said Steffen Köhl, Head of Advanced Exterior Design at Mercedes-Benz. “We are looking forward to the moment when the winners are presented with the ring at the Trophy Ceremony. There is a real piece of Mercedes DNA in it."

The Championship Rings will be handcrafted by the artisans at GOOD ART HLYWD in Los Angeles. Each ring is made from 18 karat white gold with a custom-cut sapphire jewel, and a diamond encased in the Summoner’s hands. 

Mercedes-Benz and Riot Games will also release a documentary that provides insight into the creation process of the rings. The documentary will be available on the League of Legends Esports YouTube channel.
