Before Brandon co-founded the Riot Games with Marc Merrill, he was an employee of a business consulting company entitled Bain & Company, working as a consulting manager. However, in 2006, he left when he befriended Marc Merrill, andthe two soon started working on a video game development platform, and company entitled Riot Games. In 2006, it was officially launched, with its main office in West Los Angeles, California. The two started working on their first game, and in 2008, they announced the “League Of Legends: Clash of Fates”, released in October 2009 as “League Of Legends”. The game is made possible for users to play for free; however, it is funded by micro transactions by buying in-game items. Ever since its launch, the game`s popularity has been increasing, and now its users are numbered at a minimum of 80 million, which has significantly increased Brandon`s net worth.

However, Brandon and Marc decided to sell their ownership of Riot Games, firstly selling the majority of the shares to the Tencent Holdings for around $230 million, which really increased Brandon`s net worth, and in December, it was announced that Tencent Holdings had obtained the rest of the shares, but no amount was mentioned in the statement, although it certainly increased further Brandon`s net worth. Despite selling his shares, Brandon is still the CEO of Riot Games.
