League of Legends never stops growing as far as its community and e-sport are concerned. Starting from Season 3, Riot Games showed that they were able to make e-sport grow while raising top players to the level of professional gamers.

Since the failure of the last line-up in qualifying the Millenium Up & Down, the issue of Millenium remained unsolved. Today, we are proud to announce a new line-up whose way to LCS is already secured and whose main objective will be to maintain this spot as long as possible.





The new Millenium team is none other than the old line-up Alternate whose contract was not renewed for season 4. They have been present in the LCS since the Summer Split, after winning an intense Bo5 against the GIANTS! Gaming at Summer Promotion in June. Then, they maintained their LCS spot by winning a Bo3 for 5th place against Ninjas in Pyjamas, ensuring their participation in the new edition which starts on January 14 (Editor's note: The team will play its first match against SK Gaming)

Statement from Jean-Marc « Bjoran » Gaudin , Coach for Millenium.LoL

Not so long ago, Cedric Page, President of Millenium had declared in an interview that a major objective of the company in 2014 would be to have a League of Legends team in LCS , as head of the department, it was obvious that he would find a solution to meet this objective.



In December I went with Llewellys in Cologne for the " up and down" as a spectator but also and especially to create some opportunities and position ourselves as a structure in search of a team for season 2014.

The idea was to get in touch with the newly qualified teams but it was another team that contacted us in the days that followed . Ex -Alternate and this option was unanimously approved of within the Millennium structure.

The presence of Creaton who was also present at Cologne has largely facilitated contacts .



This recruitment is a real teamwork as to finalize such a project it takes a financial, media strength and appropriate supervision and it is with great pleasure that we can announce that the team will play under Millenium colors for 2014 season.





The objectives will be first of all to continue in different "split" but you could see last season that without his injury, Creaton would have enabled his team to rank above the fifth position, ranking further up therefore seems not impossible if all goes well .
