The Worlds Pickems are back in 2025, coming with new rewards and an all-new feature to involve the League community. We will also be adding our own picks and giving reasons to help you in your predictions.

Worlds 2025 Pickems

Worlds Pickems 2025 Predictions

The LoL Worlds Pickems will officially start on October 7, one week before the start of the action in China. Having a condensed schedule compared to the previous edition, Worlds 2025 will have an adjusted cadence, with play-ins and swiss stage being combined into one single round of predictions. The Swiss stage will also allow fans to predict the qualifying scores of each team. Knockout stage will be bundled together, with no round-by-round picks.

While it makes the prediction process shorter, having to make multiple picks at once will also make the perfect pick’em challenge even harder than it already was. No player has been able to nail all predictions in the last four years, making 2020 the last tournament where eight players were able to get all the ultimate picks in the game.

Introducing FACTIONS

The big addition for this year’s Pick’Ems is FACTIONS, allowing fans to join their favorite creator and earn points during the competition. At the end of the tournament, the Faction with the highest average score wins an exclusive Emote for every participant. The Emote will be highly exclusive and not available anywhere else.
