S. Samek

Big weekend this past week for League of Legends Esports. Three teams won league championships and earned spots in the upcoming First Stand event. Let’s meet the teams qualifying for this new in 2025 event.

The first team to make it was LCK Cup 2025 winners Hanwha Life Esports. They made an impressive run through the playoffs with wins over T1, Gen.G twice, including the finals and Dplus KIA to win the title. They played full five -game series during each playoff match and should be more than ready to take on any other team that makes it to first stand.

The second team to make it is Team Liquid. They won the LTA 2025 split one playoffs over 100 Thieves 3-0 to win the first ever LTA title.

The final team to qualify for First stand this weekend was CTBC Flying Oyster. They took first place in the LCP 2025 season Kickoff Qualifying Series to earn their spot. They defeated Talon 3-1 in the finals to get this spot.

Three of the five teams have qualified. Now it’s just left with the LPL and LEC to get their team qualified. They both will finish up their playoffs this coming weekend. Stay tuned for coverage of both of those playoffs and to see which team from those regions also qualify for First Stand.
