Ten teams, one goal: international champions at MSI 2025.
LoL's Mid-Season Invitational is around the corner with Vancouver, Canada playing host to 10 of the world's best teams this coming June and July. MSI 2025 is the second of three international LoL tournaments this year following the launch of First Stand back in March.
Let's take a look at all the teams that will represent each major LoL region at MSI 2025.
All teams qualified for MSI 2025
LCK (Korea)
- LCK Road to MSI Champion: TBD
- LCK Road to MSI Runner-Up: TBD
- Teams in contention: Gen.G, T1, Hanwha Life, NS RedForce, Dplus KIA, KT Rolster
Both teams that make the grand final of the LCK this split will qualify for the main stage of MSI. Thanks to their lock as top seed in league play, Gen.G will start in the qualification match meaning they're just one best-of-three away from securing their tickets to MSI.
Apart from the second seed, all other teams will be seeded into the single-elimination "gauntlet".
LPL (China)
- LPL Split 2 Champion: TBD
- LPL Split 2 Runner-Up (Play-In): TBD
- Teams in contention: Top Esports, Anyone's Legend, JD Gaming, Bilibili Gaming, Invictus Gaming, Team WE, Weibo Gaming, FunPlus Phoenix, TT Gaming
The bracket stage for LPL Split 2 gets started on May 31. The top four teams — TES, Anyone's Legend, JDG, and Bilibili — skipped straight though to the bracket while the remaining teams fought through a single best-of-three play-in to qualify.
The top two from the LPL final both proceed to MSI and EWC.

LEC (EMEA)
- LEC Spring Champion: TBD
- LEC Spring Runner-Up (Play-In): TBD
- Teams in contention: G2 Esports, Karmine Corp, Fnatic, Movistar KOI, GIANTX, Heretics
G2 Esports became the first team qualified to MSI 2025 on May 27, defeating Movistar KOI 3-1 in the upper bracket final. This guarantees G2 will play in the LEC final with both teams there progressing through to MSI.
The runner-up in that final will drop to the MSI Play-In. Both teams will also qualify for EWC in Saudi Arabia, meaning G2 joins T1 as teams attending the event.
The LEC Spring final will take place on June 9.
LTA (Americas)
- LTA North Split 2 Champion: TBD
- LTA South Split 2 Champion (Play-In): TBD
- Teams in contention:
- LTA North: FlyQuest, Cloud9, Liquid, Shopify Rebellion, 100 Thieves, Dignitas
- LTA South: paiN Gaming, FURIA, Vivo Keyd Stars, LOUD, Isurus Estral, RED Canids
The top two from North make it to EWC, while only the South champion gets a ticket to Riyadh. The finals for both leagues take place on June 16.
LCP (Asia-Pacific)
- LCP Mid-Season Qualifying Series Champion: TBD
- LCP Mid-Season Qualifying Series Runner-Up (Play-In): TBD
- Teams in contention: CTBC Flying Oyster, Team Secret Whales, TALON, GAM Esports, MGN Vikings, SoftBank HAWKS
The LCP will send two teams to MSI with many hoping an APAC rep can emulate CTBC Flying Oyster's upset top four finish at First Stand earlier this year. Both qualifying series finalists will make it to MSI with the champion skipping the Play-In and heading straight to the group stage.
