The Campeonato Brasileiro de League of Legends (CBLOL, lit. Brazilian Championship of League of Legends) is the top level of professional League of Legends competition in Brazil and Southern Latin America. There were anywhere from eight to ten teams in the league prior to 2025. Each annual season of play is divided into three splits, marked Split 1, Split 2, and Split 3; during the two-split era both splits consisting of eighteen rounds of round-robin tournament play, which then concluded with play-off tournaments between the top six teams. The winners of each split qualify for First Stand, the Mid-Season Invitational and World Championship respectively. ^[1]

CBLOL would merge with North America's LCS and Latin America's Liga Latinoamérica to form the League of Legends Championship of The Americas in 2025, with CBLOL becoming the South Conference ("LTA South"). The decision was reversed beginning in 2026, reinstating CBLOL.

The matches are held at Riot Studios in São Paulo and broadcast via livestream, with an audience. For the finals in the second split up to 2024, the matches were held in arenas like Allianz Parque and were attended by narrators, commentators, analysts and presenters. ^[2] In addition to full broadcasting on official YouTube channels, Twitch, CBLOL has also played live games on SporTV since 2017, with the same coverage as Riot. ^[3]

Overview

The tournament had been organized since 2012, shortly after the debut of the Brazilian server, with professionalism still incipient, when it was held in just three days. In 2014, the first league championship was held: the Brazilian League - Champions Series, and in the same year the precedent of two annual competitions was inaugurated, with the holding of the Brazilian Regional Final. After that, the two-split format was adopted, with each one played in the first phase in the "all against all" format, and later knockout until the grand finale. ^{[4] [5]} Also in 2015, the league format with stable members was adopted, but subject to lowering and promotion of the worst placed to benefit the best of the Challenging Circuit. ^{[6] [7]} Until 2014, a qualifying phase for the championship dispute was adopted. ^[8]

On 21 January 2020, Riot Brazil confirmed that CBLOL moved to franchising. ^[9]

On 11 June 2024, Riot announced that CBLOL, LCS and LLA would form a pan-American league, the League of Legends Championship of The Americas in 2025. Six of the ten CBLOL teams remained partnered and formed the South Conference ("LTA South"), with INTZ, KaBuM! Esports, Liberty and Los Grandes leaving after 2024; KaBuM! would join a revived Challenging Circuit, which would serve as Brazil's second division once more. They would be joined by a team from southern Latin America (which would be Leviatán) and a guest slot determined by a promotion and relegation tournament with teams from the Challenging Circuit and South Regional League (Southern LATAM) after 2025; this guest spot went to Isurus Gaming, initially as Isurus Estral under a partnership with Estral Esports.

CBLOL adopted a first split which qualified a team from the pan-American league for a new international tournament named First Stand, but this was won by North America's Team Liquid. Also, the third split would lead to the Americas regional tournament which would send at least one team from the South to Worlds, which would be Vivo Keyd Stars. ^{[10] [11]} On September 28, 2025, Riot would discontinue the LTA and revive CBLOL and the LCS. ^[12]
