The NLC has officially confirmed that Los Ratones, a team founded by popular streamer Marc Robert ‘Caedrel’ Lamont, will join the league in 2025.
In addition, League of Legends’ UK and Nordics EMEA Regional League (ERL) has also secured a partnership with Swedish chair company Arozzi.
Founded in November 2024, Los Ratones’ League of Legends team features well-known players and personalities from the scene including Tim ‘Nemesis’ Lipovšek, Carl Martin Erik ‘Rekkles’ Larsson and Simon ‘Thebausffs’ Hofverberg.
Following heavy speculation over Los Ratones’ potential destination since its launch, the NLC has now officially announced the team’s participation for the 2025 season. The NLC, which recently revamped its ecosystem for 2025, will kick off on January 15th.
Speaking to Esports News UK, the event’s organisers, Leagues.gg, stated that the NLC in 2025 “will be the biggest year” for the UK and Nordic region.
Joining Los Ratones is Arozzi, which has been named the title sponsor of the NLC for 2025. In particular, the partnership will focus on promoting Arozzi’s gaming chair. Specific details surrounding marketing activations between the NLC and Arozzi have yet to be disclosed.
This is not the first time the Swedish chair company has teamed up with an esports stakeholder. In 2024, the company partnered with British esports organisation Method for World of Warcraft’s Race to World First event.
Max Grimborg, Head of Leagues Media, commented on the partnership: “I couldn’t be more proud and excited to announce Arozzi as the title sponsor of the NLC for 2025.
“This partnership is a testament to the growing impact of Nordic esports and the unique opportunities the NLC provides. We’re thrilled to collaborate with Arozzi and confident that this partnership will elevate both the league and Arozzi’s brand to new heights. Here’s to an unforgettable year ahead!”
