Garena Southeast Asia[]

Main Article: Garena

SEA Garena server

SEA Garena Server

Garena is a consumer Internet platform provider based in Asia that used to handle publishing League of Legends (ergo Teamfight Tactics PC too) in the region.

Each server had its own headquarters and its own pricing for champions, skins, bundles etc. Server transfer was not available to and from this region; players were required to be part of the Garena cyberspace exclusively.

In January 2023, Riot Games ended its contract with Garena. This resulted in Riot assuming all publishing rights for both League of Legends and Teamfight Tactics on all respective countries. Riot in turn had to partner with VNG Corporation and Taiwan Mobile for players in the regions of Vietnam (VN) and Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau (TW) due to certain state laws.[9]

SG shard[]

Before other servers opened to better split the playerbase, the Singapore (SG) server was the default server for SEA players whose country or region is not part of other servers. Upon signing up or logging in to Garena, those players would enter the SG server.

The Indonesian (ID) server was shut down on May 16th, 2019, 00:01 WIB (GMT+7)[10]. The player base was asked to transfer to the now consolidated "Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia (SG)" server. Transfers could still take place for some time after server closure (however, only those who have transferred their accounts before closure would receive the incentive rewards offered for transferring).

Transferring to another server[]

When creating a game account, the player must choose a server to use, which is usually the server to which their country belongs. Once created, the account belongs solely to the server in which was created, with the login credentials being invalid for other servers.

In order to play with the same account in another server, a transfer can be purchased in the Riot Store.

Generally, transfers to other servers hosted by Riot will cost 2600 RP 2600. RU, TR, BR, LAN and LAS servers do not have transfers to some other servers. Some servers do not have transferability: KR game accounts require national ID credentials, while CN is hosted by a third-party company.
