Oceania has been eliminated from Riot's League of Legends Rift Rivals tournament. <\/p>\n

The event gathers 41 teams from 13 regions into five groups (\"rifts\") for inter-region battles. <\/p>\n

Thanks to their Oceanic Pro League Split 1 performances, LG Dire Wolves, Legacy, and Sin were chosen to represent Oceania in the competition's purple rift in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. <\/p>\n

There they joined Southeast Asia and Japan, and the initial round robin stage between the three regions saw Japan go 5-1 to advance straight to the rift final. <\/p>\n

Oceania and Southeast Asia then prepared to square off in a King of the Rift format semi-final, wherein the bottom seeds from each region battle, the winner stays on to challenge the next highest seed, and so forth. <\/p>\n

There, Oceania third seed Sin defeated Southeast Asia's third seed Mineski and second seed Ascension Gaming, before finally being eliminated by top seed Gigabyte Marines. <\/p>\n

\"An experience I will never forget and no matter the result this is something I will remember till the day I die, the guy who always had fun!\" tweeted Sin jungler Brandon \"Juves\" Defina, who hinted earlier that Rivals could be his last big tournament. <\/p>\n

Sin support Jake \"Rogue\" Sharwood added, \"I think that was the best I've ever played in my life, and it was all on a world stage. It's amazing how far we've come, Juves.\" <\/p>\n

Legacy then stepped in, but both they and Dire Wolves were eliminated by Gigabyte, ending the tournament for Oceania. <\/p>\n

\"Disappointing is the only word to describe the end to our rift rivals run,\" tweeted Legacy mid-laner Brandon \"Claire\" Nguyen. <\/p>\n

Southeast Asia and Japan will battle for purple rift supremacy tonight at around midnight local time. <\/p>\n

Dire Wolves, Legacy, and Sin are all 3-0 in Split 2 of the 2017 OPL. The competition resumes next Saturday (July 15), with Legacy taking on Team Regicide, and Avant Gaming facing off against LG Dire Wolves. <\/p>\n
