The Esports Foundation has unveiled the ENC Team Rankings and the interactive Team Builder platform, giving fans and players their first projected look at how nations stack up ahead of the inaugural Esports Nations Cup in Riyadh.
The system tracks player results from major tournaments and translates them into a global standing for each country and territory. For League of Legends, the top five highest-scoring players from each submitted roster will count toward the nation's ENC ranking, with a maximum of three players from the same club allowed in that count — a cap that prevents stacked club lineups from carrying entire nations. Points are earned across a tiered competition list, from Tier S events such as Worlds and First Stand down to Tier B regional leagues like the LFL, VCS, NACL, and LCK CL. The cut-off date for LoL is set for June 14.
The current standings remain projected, based on the highest possible scoring lineups in each country. The Esports Foundation received the submitted rosters from participating nations nearly two weeks ago and is set to validate them internally on May 22. Public roster announcement dates, however, have not yet been confirmed.
