  • TEC Community Cup – August Open (Completed)

  • TEC Streamer Clash Invitational (September - Completed)

  • Influencer Driven Community Clash (September to December – In Progress)

Additionally, the TEC Rift Rulers Leaderboard will track the performance of South Asia’s top teams. The top 4 teams from the leaderboard at the end of the Influencer Community Clash will earn direct invitations to the main event of the TEC Community Clash in December.

Commenting on the association, Vamsi Krishna, Managing Director, Basik Marketing, added, “We are grateful to Riot Games for once again placing their trust in The Esports Club. Having partnered before, we’re eager to advance this collaboration and elevate the esports ecosystem. This roadmap is more than just a series of tournaments; it’s a strategic initiative to build a dynamic community where competition, collaboration, and camaraderie are central.

The July and August Opens of the TEC Community Cup have attracted strong participation from grassroots gamers, offering them valuable opportunities to compete. The TEC Streamer Clash Invitational in September delivered high-level gameplay, while the ongoing Influencer Driven Community Clash features notable figures like ShreeMan LegenD, MidFailYT, iFlicks, SKplz, and SID, creating substantial engagement. So far, these efforts have involved over 500 teams and garnered more than 500K views, laying a solid foundation for continued momentum leading up to the TEC Community Clash in December.

As India’s gaming market continues its rapid growth, with Niko Partners forecasting it to generate $1.4 billion in revenue by 2028 and home to 730.7 million gamers, this roadmap is strategically positioned to capitalize on the immense opportunity. The initiative not only aims to engage the current player base but also to drive further expansion in the region, reinforcing the game's presence and community.
