2020 LCK Summer Split: A Guide to Watching

The LCK is returning tomorrow for the 2020 Summer Split.

Ten of the best League of Legends teams in South Korea will compete to represent their region at the World Championship.

The LCK has five Worlds winning runs and is the most decorated league in the world.

The top three teams from the Summer Split will advance to Worlds this year and face off against squads from North America, China, and the rest of the world.

Despite Korea’s international success, the LCK has fallen behind China and Europe in recent years. At this year’s Mid-Season Cup, China came out on top.

Korea will look to right their wrongs ahead of Worlds and prepare for the big stage. T1, Gen.G, and DragonX are the LCK’s top teams, but KT Rolster and Afreeca Freeca will compete as well.

Here’s everything you need to know about the 2020 LCK Summer Split.

Matches to watch

  • DragonX vs. T1: Both teams dominated in the 2020 Spring Split with a 14-4 record. T1 will look to defeat DragonX once again.
  • KT Rolster vs. Gen.G: KT had a poor start to 2020 but have come back into contention. The additions of top laner Smeb and mid laner Ucal could be what the team needs to succeed.
