LCP Season Kickoff 2025 format and teams
The LCP Season Kickoff is the first "split" for the Pacific championship league, starting on Jan. 17. LCP Season Kickoff is a two-stage tournament. The round-robin stage sees the eight teams (four Partners and four Guests) play a single best-of-three round robin. After each team has played their seven games, teams will be consolidated in a ladder.
The bottom two teams will be eliminated, while the top six progress to stage two — the playoffs. Here, the teams play a double-elimination bracket. First and second receive a first-round bye. The winner at the end of the playoff bracket will emerge as the LCP's representative for Riot's new major tournament, First Stand, in March.
Fearless Draft will be used for the LCP in 2025, forcing teams to get creative with their drafts and adapt larger champion pools. Here are the teams participating in LCP Season Kickoff 2025:
Qualification | Team(s) |
|---|---|
| Partner Teams | CTBC Flying Oyster (CFO) Fukuoka SoftBank HAWKS (SHG) GAM Esports (GAM) Talon Esports (TLN) |
| Guest Slot | Chiefs Esports Club (CHF) DetonatioN FocusMe (DFM) Team Secret Whales (TSW) Vikings Esports (VKE) |
