League player Maria "Remi" Creveling made headlines last August when her team, Renegades, qualified for the League Of Legends Championship Series (LCS), making her the first woman to ever play at that level. Even then she wasn't sure whether she would continue on to play in the LCS, and last week she confirmed that she would be stepping down from the Renegades.
The first woman to make it into the League of Legends Championship Series (LCS) is going to keep playing after all, she said on Twitter. Maria "Remilia" Creveling originally said that she was planning to step down from her position on team Renegades after winning the LCS qualifying game last week. Woo-hoo!
On Wednesday night, the pro League of Legends team Renegades secured a victory against Team Coast, securing themselves a spot in the next League of Legends Championship Series (LCS). Making it into the big leagues is normally routine news, but RNG's win was special. It was the first time a woman made it into the LCS.
