It’s offseason time and some teams have already started making major roster changes for LCS 2026. Here are all the latest confirmed and rumored roster moves from the LCS teams. Four squads have been making serious moves and it looks like there will a fiercer competition next year.
Cloud9 is expected to have only one player change during this offseason. Korean player Loki has departed from the team due to personal reasons and is set to be replaced by former Team Liquid mid laner APA. All the other remaining players have contracts running until the end of 2027 so unless there are major surprises, this will be the roster C9 runs this season.
There are big question marks from Dignitas, who is however expected to make a major rebuild for the coming season. Mid laner Keine has alreay left the organization and everyone except top laner Photon have expiring contracts this month.
Despite a rough season from the team led by the DisguisedToast, it will be exciting to see if the guest partner team will be able to build a more competitive roster for the LCS in 2026. The team has yet to compete in the Promotion tournament. Only Castle is rumored to re-sign with the team, while the rest is yet to be confirmed.
The 2025 league season has ended, marking a memorable first year for Disguised.

After a somewhat disappointing end to their 2025 season, there are big changes coming to FlyQuest. Bwipo, Inspired, and Busio are all set to leave the organization, alongside the coaching staff of Mithy and nukeduck.
In their stead, former FURIA head coach Thinkcard is set to join as he will be leading a roster full of young players. Substitute player Gagkos will become the starting top laner in 2026, with former T1 trainee Gryffinn as the new jungler to take up Inspired’s spot. The question is now on the support role: Busio is will be joining the LEC on KC, but who will be filling his shoes? According to the latest rumors, FLY are currently holding in-person tryouts with three young players who have never appeared in the LCS.
After a season spent in the bottom half of the standings, LYON is looking to create a highly competitive roster for next year. The LATAM team will keep Zamudo in the top lane, as he will finally get his shot in the tier-one competition, alongside jungler Inspired. Saint will be the only returning player from the 2025 lineup. Korean import Berserker, who is rumored to return to the LCS after a tough season on DNF, will be pairing up with support Isles.

There are little rumors going on from the newest the newest organization in the LCS, Sentinels. It would make sense to have the team pick up some of the players from 100T who ended up without a team, especially after their recent Worlds run. That said, the only indication on that end seems to be head coach Goldenglue, who refused an offer from LYON. Based on the latest confirmations, Sentinels is looking to go for the Korean bot lane of Rahel and huhi, with domestic player DARKWINGS taking the mid lane role.
Everyone except Palafox had contracts going until 2026, so SR is just going to bring a new player in the mid lane, and they decided to go big. After playing for KT Rolster academy, Korean player Zinie, one of the most anticipated talents from the LCK CL, will finally get his shot in the tier-one competition. With that, SR’s roster for 2026 is seemingly completed.
Team Liquid started off as the best team in the league but then faltered heavily as the season went on. Despite Korean jungler UmTi getting replaced by the young Yuuji, TL failed to qualify for Worlds, marking a disappointing end to the 2025 campaign.
