It's interesting to note that the title of this article is the idea behind the esports behemoth known as "League of Legends". Players dispute wars around the fictional world by battling on a 'Rift' to decide the fate of nations.
Furthermore its impressive that last years culminating Worlds match up drew in more viewers than the NBA finals [1]. This year's should be even greater.

However Summoners Rift, and the League of Legends itself does not exist within the canon. There is no central battlefield where the fate of nations is decided anymore.
