The 2019 League of Legends season has officially come to an end, and the race to secure the best talent is on for all teams across the world.
In the LCS and LEC, franchising means no relegation, but that doesn’t mean teams aren’t looking to bring entirely new rosters into the next season.
Some old faces are changing, with new organizations joining both the North American and European leagues. Clutch Gaming are rebranding to Dignitas, OpTic Gaming has been acquired by Immortals, Evil Geniuses picked up Echo Fox’s slot, and Splyce are also rebranding to Mad Lions over in Europe.
For the coming season, LCS teams will be required to have a minimum of 10 players on their roster – enough to cover both the LCS and Academy teams – with a maximum total roster size of 15. LEC teams will be required to have 5, as their academy system is different.
The following rosters are based on those officially listed on the global contract database maintained by Riot, and include all players currently signed by each team. The rosters will be updated as teams make official announcements about changes, however, which may not be immediately reflected in Riot’s database.
The fact that a team currently has certain players under contract does not necessarily guarantee that those players will be on the active line-up for the following season. This article will be updated as and when new information about team rosters becomes available, including when teams confirm which players will be part of their starting squads.
