Description
League of Legends Champions Korea (Hangul: 리그 오브 레전드 챔피언스 코리아), commonly abbreviated as LCK, is the primary competition for League of Legends esports in South Korea. Contested by 10 teams, the league runs two seasons per year and serves as a direct route to qualification for the annual League of Legends World Championship. The LCK is administered in cooperation between Riot Games, KeSPA, OGN, and SPOTV Games.
The league was formerly named League Of Legends Champions before undergoing a major restructuring in late 2014, which saw a change in the competition's format and a rebranding to its current name. OGN reserved exclusive broadcasting rights of the league until 2016 when rights were split with SPOTV Games.
The LCK is widely considered to be the strongest League of Legends competition in the world, with the game's World Championship having been won by teams from the league from 2013 through 2017; 2018 was the first season since 2013 where a team from the LCK did not win the World Championship. KT Rolster are the current champions, winning their second title, and first since dropping the "Arrows" from their name, on 9 September 2018 after beating Griffin in the finals of LCK Summer 2018.
