League of Legends Worlds 2019: when and where to watch the Finals
By Josh Tyler
The League of Legends Worlds 2019 will host the finals tomorrow. Here is how you can watch the games.
And then there were two. Only two teams remain in the Worlds 2019 tournament and one of them will be named the best League of Legends team in the world tomorrow. For those of you planning to watch, here is where and how you can enjoy all the action.
G2 Esports (G2) vs. FunPlus Phoenix (FPX)
Date: November 10, 2019
Time: 7:00 AM EST / 11:00 AM GMT
Where: AccorHotels Arena in Paris, France
Streaming: The game will be available to stream on multiple platforms including Twitch, Youtube, and the official LoLEsports site.
This will mark the second-straight year that the finals feature a European team facing off against a Chinese team. Last year, Invictus Gaming defeated Fnatic in a 3-0 series win. This also marks the second-straight Worlds final appearance for Rasmus “Caps” Winther who was the mid laner for Fnatic.
A key matchup to decide who will win Worlds 2019 will be between the two junglers. On the one hand, G2’s jungler Marcin “Jankos” Jankowski was one of the highest-touted junglers on the planet coming into Worlds 2019. To say that he has performed below expectations would be a fair understatement and it will be up to him to get back to the form he showed all year in the LEC if G2 wants to improve their chances of winning.

Unfortunately, that will be no easy task going up against one of the MVP candidates for Worlds 2019. FPX’s jungler Gao “Tian” Tian-Liang has been instrumental in accelerating the LPL champion’s aggressive early style. If he can continue to do this, FunPlus Phoenix will have a great chance to be the second-straight Chinese team to hoist the Summoner’s Cup.
