Riot GamesThe LPL, China’s premier League of Legends league, has over a decade of history behind it as one of the most competitive regions in the world. Here’s a full list of every LPL winner in the league’s history.
The LPL and LCK have been duking it out for years to determine which region is the best, often leaving the Western regions in the dust. And, while the LPL has much less import talent than the LCS and LEC, it still heavily relies upon Korean talent to define some of its best teams.
However, that changed in 2024 with BLG’s iron grip on the LPL. The team isn’t using any import slots, and they’re looking even stronger than they were in 2023 now that knight‘s been brought on as their mid laner. BLG back-to-backed the LPL championship in 2024, with the team establishing a new dynasty in the region.
And, though a lot of BLG’s success was achieved off the back of knight’s excellence, rising stars like Elk have left their mark on the league as well.
Colin Young-Wolff/Riot Games2025 has kicked off with a new super team on top: Top Esports. Aside from jungler Kanavi, this team is comprised of world champion talent in the bot lane, as well as two stellar solo laners in 369 and Creme. They managed to deny Anyone’s Legend their first title and qualified to the First Stand, a new international event in 2025.
