Ninja vs. MrBeast League of Legends event: Format, players and more

What initially began as a simple tease from MrBeast turned into a Grand League of Legends tournament with a lucrative prize of $150,000.

It all began on Twitter as one of the biggest YouTube creators threw down the gauntlet and challenged a legendary streamer in League of Legends.

Taking a cheeky jibe at Ninja for his skills, MrBeast quipped:

Of course, Ninja's competitive spirit wouldn't let MrBeast walk away so easily as he replied to the tweet and started a hilarious back-and-forth:

The internet was pretty clueless about the drama until June 20, 2022 when the popular YouTuber finally announced the tournament. It goes without saying, but the rivalry between two of the most successful social media personalities has created shockwaves on the internet.

Shortly after the announcement, the duo began recruiting members for their sides:

While MrBeast and Ninja served as team captains, they were joined by a number of high-profile and well-known League of Legends pros and Twitch streamers. Some of the big names include:

After a considerable amount of verbal jousting and team pickups, both sides gave their best to win the ultimate battle and of course, the whopping prize money. However, it didn't take long for the YouTuber's team to dominate their opposition's territory and rack up 35 kills in the first round.

Demolishing Ninja's great lineup by racking 26 kills and that too in less than 25 minutes, the YouTube powerhouse went home as League of Legends champion.

That's not all, as given his competitive spirit, Ninja called for a bonus round worth $50k to redeem their brutal loss. Accepting the offer, both teams hopped onto the game for the final juncture. Eliminating Mizkif, Voyboy and MrBeast in the fun bonus round, Ninja's team secured an easy win.
