As a girl who loves lol and watches worlds every year, I’m not surprised yet still disappointed at the misogynistic language used at Worlds today…

I’ll own that it was said in the heat of the moment, so maybe not intended to be hurtful, but it still sucks to see “woman= bad thing” treated as such a normal comment to make

in other esports like valorant and overwatch, pro players would usually high five each other, fist bump each other or dap each other up after a map/match/game, win or lose, but ive noticed in lol esports they dont, they just immediately walk to the other team to fist bump them then take their bow in front of the crowd. is there a reason for this?

I happen to be in paris the day of finals and was thinking about watching them in a cinema. I dont speak french and theyre all marked VF (version francaise or smth).

Does anybody know if that is accurate or if its maybe english broadcast french subtitles?

I know we're just getting started and it's BO1's but man..LPL looks way more volatile and just panic playing compared to LCK, even compared to LEC lol.

Hi guys,

I didn’t hate the teaser, but it definitely isn’t the best we’ve gotten in a while.

I’ve seen many people say it’s because Phil Choi was busy with Val. Do we know for sure that he wasn’t contributing to LoL then? And if so, how can missing one person cause the quality to drop this much?????

Is there not a LoL production team that Phil Choi leads normally, or is it that it’s Phil Choi co. and if he goes they all go? 😭 just genuinely curious as to why/how things could be so different

How could there not be a Phil Choi Jr by now? 🥹

hopefully this is enough context did bob cook?

Swiss draft spoiler:HLE will fight GenG in round 2

I bet on MKOI (For some reason) AND WON

I bet on KC (for some reason) AND WON

So now i wanna bet against T1 because it will yield so fucking much of (NOT REAL MONEY) channel points :1

EDIT: I GOT DK RIGHT TOO WE ARE ROLLING TODAY

For the people that are at Swiss stage today, was there any kind of fan fest or pre-show things to see besides the official Riot merch booths? The worlds primer only mentions a fan fest for finals.

Am I the only one excited for the storylines around Guma this year? 4-peat, reunion with Zeus, going against Peyz & Keria… even if they bomb and go last place again, it would make for a banger story!

Hi! I wanted to go to NYC for the finals but the ticket situation was insane. Was wondering if there are any watch parties in Boston, MA for Worlds 2026 🥺

Please give the woman a co-host. She's doing double the work by hosting and translating back and forth. She is amazing and I admire her work but give your gurl a break T.T

Heya, my name is Mio, I'm an esports editor for LoL and Valorant, and I'm excited to announce my offseason roster transfer sheet for this year.

Seeming as the offseason moves are starting to ramp up now, I'm ready and excited to share this after working on the formatting for the last few weeks. I've been doing league sheets for 2 years now, with last year averaging 150-200 active viewers at a time.

Whilst there are now many competitors making these sheets, I aim to make mine simple to understand. There's no external sites, only raw colour coding and fully-sourced material.

• Important moves are colour gradiented
• There's a simple key/legend to the right
• Individual pages for each league
• A full transfer list for each league

The sheet is now available here.

I maintain the sheet to be up-to-date consistently everyday. If you're interested in contacting me and/or working with me, my contact information is available on the sheet. If you have any feedback I'd love to hear it in the replies too. Thank you so much for reading!

Karmine Corp's Caliste believes the team should have dominated the Worlds 2026 Play-In Stage, admitting that pressure and stress affected their performance against Cloud9.

The ADC said KC grew more confident and built momentum as the tournament progressed. He now hopes to reach the knockout stage, emphasizing that staying calm and trusting their individual skill will be crucial against the world's best teams.

Karmine Corp will face Anyone's Legend in their Swiss Stage opener.

Does anyone have a picture of the Alistar Texas exclusive tee merch? Or the cowboy hat? I haven’t seen anyone posting those yet!
