ZETA DIVISION operator GANYMEDE has announced that affiliated creator SHAKA will host the online event “LEGENDUS League of Legends ARAM: Mayhem Supported by Riot Games” on August 28, 2026. With official backing from Riot Games, 20 popular streamers will split into four teams for an action-packed showdown.

Event Overview and Tournament Format

In this event hosted by SHAKA, 20 popular streamers will be organized into four teams of five to compete in League of Legends’ ARAM mode. The qualifiers consist of six round-robin matches including side changes, with each match victory earning one point. Additionally, unique rules award bonus points to the team with the highest gold earner each match, along with a secret scoring element.

After the qualifiers, rankings determine the final bracket, where 1st vs. 2nd place and 3rd vs. 4th place face off in best-of-three sets to determine the final standings.

Star-Studded Streamer Lineup

Team A features Amanogawa Neru, Amatsuki, Eugeo, Mittiii, and Rainbrain. Team B includes Day1, Oogosho Nyunko, Shiranami Ramune, Washidai, and Zackray. Team C brings together Astel Leda, Qoo, Yufuna, Yukio, and Yutapon, while Team D also boasts five top-tier members set to compete. The mixed lineup of VTubers and streamers across teams is one of the event’s highlights.

SHAKA and the LEGENDUS Series Legacy

SHAKA is one of Japan’s most prominent streamers, consistently ranking among the country’s top creators in total watch hours and achieving the world’s #1 ranking in December 2023. During his competitive career, he won 18 consecutive official tournaments in the FPS game “AVA” and represented Japan at the world championships for four straight years.

The LEGENDUS event series, which SHAKA launched in May 2024, has heated up major venues including Koraku-en Hall and Tokyo Gymnasium. This latest edition marks the series’ first collaboration with Riot Games’ official support for a League of Legends event.

Future Developments

The LEGENDUS series has been held across multiple titles, including Mecha BREAK, and the addition of official Riot Games support has further elevated the series’ brand power. Event details and streaming information will be announced on ZETA DIVISION’s official X and SHAKA’s YouTube channel.

Commentary and Outlook

SHAKA’s decision to adopt League of Legends’ ARAM mode for this LEGENDUS event is a notable choice. ARAM offers a casual, accessible format that makes for easy-to-follow viewing even for LoL newcomers. The official Riot Games support is a testament to how streamer-hosted events have earned the trust of major publishers. Following k4sen Con 2026 and other large-scale events, GANYMEDE’s momentum shows no signs of slowing in the second half of 2026.
