With Worlds 2024 nearing its conclusion, Riot Games has unveiled major changes for the LEC’s 2025 season, marking one of the league’s biggest overhauls to date. Kicking off on Jan. 18, the season will feature three “dynamic” splits, each with unique formats, more localized events, and higher stakes ahead of the three international qualifications.

In a media roundtable behind closed doors, Riot and the LEC revealed the new structure for its EMEA league for next season. The LEC will keep its three-split format—Winter, Spring, and Summer—but each will offer a distinct competitive structure. Riot also confirmed that most games will run on the latest live patch, though that will be put on hold if a patch releases too close to the game week to protect competitive integrity.
