The Vainglory Invitational Series (or VIS) has announced that its first event in Manhattan will take place on September 24th in the form of the VIS Summer Season All Star Game.

This will include Team SoloMid’s FlashX, Cloud9 pair Hardek and LostBoyToph, Team Phoenix’s Oldskool and CullTheMeek as well as Hammers eSports’ Aloh4.

Previous Vainglory events have been held in LA and Seattle, unsurprising given that the developer of the game is based in San Francisco. 

David Lee, Creator and Executive Producer of the VIS, said: “This is the first time anything like this is happening on the East Coast. It’s an awesome mesh of casual fans and pro players coming together and interacting in the same space.”

The event will be live streamed on Twitch and MobCrush but if you’re in the New York area, it’s free to attend and you can get your place confirmed here

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
