    …Are you kidding? LoL has been huge for years in NA. RIOT is an American company that was bought by Tencent. Leaving the market means they lose their entire dev team.

      RIOT is an American company that was bought by Tencent.

      Sure but it ignores that Tencent gave $20 million to create LoL (first 10 then another 10 to buy out the other investors)

        Investing 2 years after the game was first playable by the public counts as “giving money to create it”, now? That’s at least 6 years after they’d have started development.

        You’ve ignored reality.
