Featuring 768 players, the 2025 Teamfight Tactics Paris Open was more than just an esports competition.

Alongside boasting a $300,000 (~£222,000) prize pool, TFT’s crowning esports event was a celebration of its passionate community.

Thousands of content creators and fans attended the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles as TeamFight Tactics’ largest Open featured players battling it out through multiple rounds over three days. In the end, only eight remained to play on the main stage in front of a packed crowd.
