LoL Worlds 2016: Schedule, standings and results

Who will be victorious?

Riot Games

The League of Legends World Championships for Season 6 has begun, which means we’re in for a month of action-packed games. This could finally be the year a non-Korean team wins, but it’s too early to say.

Check out our previews on Group A, Group B, Group C and Group D if you’re not sure who to root for, or if you’re not quite excited for Worlds yet, we’ve got lots of reasons for you to be. We also have a sweet prediction list of what Western teams might succeed to catch you up on who’s the best in the West.

For the first time, the Worlds prize pool will be partially crowdfunded using money made from this season’s Championship merchandise.

Each team will play the other teams in their group twice. The two teams in each group with the highest amount of wins will move on to the best-of-five quarterfinals to duke it out in a knock-out stage. From there, teams will move up until they play in the finals for the Championship title.

Each match will have special casting done on another stream to focus on certain players or match-ups. You can see the full list of the features here.

You can watch the games on Riot Games’ Twitch channel and through LoL Esports’ YouTube.

We’ll update this post as the games progress, so stay tuned.
