Each of these tracks in the list of Riot Games music rivals one another, offering its own set of unique vibes and flavor while sticking to the same basic ideology. They have received a lot of love from fans worldwide and have proved to be an excellent marketing strategy. We expect a brand new single soon this year too with Worlds 2021.
