All teams qualified for the 2021 League of Legends World Championship – Dot Esports

The stage is set for the 2021 League of Legends World Championship.

For the second year running, the end-of-year event will take place in China. The multi-city tour will include five distinct cities from Shanghai in the opening stage of the tournament to Shenzhen in the finals.

Weve locked in the five Chinese cities after an extremely competitive bidding process, and were now ready to deliver on our promise to players with a multi-city tour for the biggest esports event on the planet, Riots head of esports John Needham said in June.

Worlds 2021 will bring together the top teams from 12 regional leagues to compete for the Summoners Cup. At its full capacity, the 60,000-seat Universiade Sports Centre in Shenzhen will be host to the finals on Nov. 6.

All in all, 24 teams will compete at the event, including four teams from China and Korea, three teams from Europe and North America, two teams from Taiwan and Vietnam, and one team from each of CIS, Latin America, Turkey, Brazil, Japan, and Oceania.

Here are all of the teams attending Worlds 2021.

DWG qualified for Worlds 2021 based on championship points accumulated over the course of the season. A total of 170 points90 from the Spring Split and 80 from the Summer Splitsecured qualification for the reigning world champions.

After placing first in the LEC summer regular season with a 13-5 record, a hard-fought win against Misfits was all Rogue needed to qualify for Worlds 2021. The addition of Odoamne in the top lane has been vital to the teams success over the past eight months.

In a repeat performance of the 2021 LEC Spring Split playoffs, MAD Lions beat G2 Esports 3-1 to secure a spot at Worlds. The team effort of the squad was more than enough to overcome the former LEC champions, who left much to be desired in the best-of-five series.

For the first time since 2018, 100 Thieves qualified for Worlds after beating Evil Geniuses in the LCS Summer playoffs. A roster reshuffle in the offseason has made a sizable difference to the team.

Team Liquid qualified for Worlds 2021 after a decisive 3-1 win over TSM in the LCS Summer playoffs. The team got it together when it mattered the most, despite issues with health, player management, and coaching staff throughout the split.
