To all Caribbean players in NA

I see a lot people here ask riot for a Caribbean server. Riot have provided us the opportunity to play on the LAN server officially. I would ask you to view this page firstly, https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/201751684-Separate-Servers scroll down to LAN and note all countries in highlighted in blue.

Yes the only language provided is Spanish and you might complain that the communication is difficult, but riot has granted us an opportunity to play and reach the highest goals in the game, which is to become pro from our countries of residence. Most companies don't even give us the opportunity.

I also got my country The Bahamas added to the regular tournaments played here https://play.eslgaming.com/leagueoflegends/latin-america-north/ I messaged them that my country was officially part of the region but I wasn't allowed to play. They apologized to me for the inconvenience and now The Bahamas will be added in every tournament in LAN on ESL.

My advice, make the best of the opportunities provided!

"Riot established these Rules for the competitive game of LoL with the objective of unifying and standardizing the norms used in the RO. If a player competes in the RO, "Riot" will mean Riot Games, "ESL" will mean Electronic Sports League, and "Latin America North" ​​will include the following countries: Belize, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Guyana, French Guiana, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Suriname, Venezuela and all the Caribbean Islands."

This is the complete official rules for the riot open in LAN. If you translate with Google translate it will say North America instead of Latin America North but that is just a false translation, just look at the original text.

Riot LAN uses ESL to manage this official tournament.

The Riot Open is the first step of getting into the pros. If you win the Riot open you will get an automatic acceptance into the CDLN (Circuit of Legends North). From the CDLN you can qualify for a spot in the LLN (Northern Latin American League ). The LLN is the highest League in LAN, in other words comparable to NA and EU LCS.
