MrBeast wins $150k League of Legends tournament, fans celebrate !
Two of the most well-known online personalities, MrBeast and Ninja, battled for $150,000 in a unique League of Legends event. In what has been labelled the “ultimate confrontation,” both content producers led their respective teams into combat at Las Vegas’ HyperX Arena. Competitive action, an unexpected upset, and a tough third round rounded out the evening’s events.
The MrBeast vs. Ninja LoL Ultimate Crown tournament was aired live from the Crown Twitch channel on July 9 at 4 p.m. Pacific Time. The whole four-hour programme is, however, still accessible on the channel for those who missed it.
The actual bouts were shown during the last three hours, with the first match commencing at around an hour and a half into the telecast.

According to MrBeast’s statement, the $150K Ultimate Crown tournament would be a conventional best-of-three format. To win the game, any creator must lead their team to two map wins.
Ninja is providing a $50,000 bonus third match. Of course, Ninja’s competitive mentality would not let MrBeast go quietly. After suffering a devastating defeat, Tyler Blevins volunteered a third-round battle for charity. Both teams accepted the offer and advanced to the third game. Ninja buried his teeth onto MrBeast around 7:30 in quest of blood. Team Ninja wiped the floor fifteen minutes later, with MrBeast getting a team kill, extending their advantage to 19 kills to MrBeast’s 9. Team Ninja would march to victory five minutes later, defeating Mizkif, Voyboy, and MrBeast along the way.
In a best-of-three encounter, MrBeast beats Ninja.
Team Ninja was the favourite to win going into the event, and after much trash talk. It didn’t take long for Team MrBeast to show that they weren’t there to have fun. Ninja was the event’s first blood, culminating in a 35 to 21 kill game in favour of MrBeast that lasted 33 minutes. Team MrBeast rapidly stepped up the pace in the second game, racking up 26 kills to Team Ninja’s 12. MrBeast won the Ultimate Crown in less than 25 minutes after beating Team Ninja.
