LoL Mid-Season Invitational shield logo

I designed this Mid-Season Invitational logo over at Troika Design Group.

The Mid-Season Invitational is an annual League of Legends tournament hosted by publisher Riot Games.
The symbol at the bottom represents the 6 teams that come together to "battle it out". A logo within a logo, under a logo. It's the logo equivalent of Deadpool, breaking the fourth wall. Ha!

The challenge here was coming up with a cool and unique way to hold all the information together. There were plenty of versions but I gravitated to the shield.
