Few names in LCS history have garnered more recognition than Yiliang "Doublelift" Peng. In honor of his roots and a time in League of Legends esports that is now gone, the former pro has announced he will be hosting a 'Retirement Home Tournament' with the help of Alienware, featuring former LCS stars as well as some names from "before there was even an LCS."
Doublelift's Retirement Home Tournament: What to Expect
According to Doublelift himself, the tournament aims to celebrate "the OGs who paved the way in League esports." The tournament will take place on June 27-28 (Saturday & Sunday) and feature a total of four teams competing for a prize pool of $20,000.
To add to the LCS old days feel of the whole thing, the games will be cast by none other than Phreak, Riv, and Jatt. It really doesn't get more OG than that...

The tournament will no doubt be streamed on Doublelift's own Twitch channel. It's also likely, though, that several of the other participants might stream the tournament in their own channels.
