League of Legends news » Battle and Brawl: Black Market Brawlers Showmatch

Cutthroat casters, plundering former pros, and rambunctious Rioters will face-off on the LCS stage at noon PDT on July 31 in a Black Market Brawlers showmatch.

What’s Black Market Brawlers?

Black Market Brawlers (BMB) is a new game mode where Runeterra’s biggest black market takes over Summoner’s Rift. You can purchase new illegal items and recruit new brawler minions straight from Bilgewater to fight on your behalf. For tips on how to play BMB, check out some tips from the veterans of the criminal haven.

Before the showmatch, our EU LCS on-air team will provide plundering pre- and post-match analysis, host highlights, breakdown the team matchups, and review some scourging strategies.
