Worlds 2025 is just around the corner, so it’s time to prepare ourselves for the best League of Legends teams in the world. Since the tournament will take place in Chengdu between October 14 and 9, LPL teams will have a huge advantage. The teams will play in front of their home crowd, and we expect an epic battle, so let’s reveal everything about this region.

The Rise of the LPL
Even though a lot of people consider the LCK to be the best region in League of Legends, the LPL is definitely close behind. Following Invictus Gaming’s triumph at the 2018 Worlds, the Chinese LoL teams have become a constant threat. There have been many world-class teams from this part of the world, such as EDward Gaming, FunPlux Phoenix, JD Gaming, and more.
LPL & Worlds 2025 – A Team-by-Team Breakdown
Even though we do not know the names of the Chinese LoL teams that will attend Worlds 2025 yet, we can predict some of them. There are 4 main contenders that deserve more attention, so let’s analyze each one and see what we can expect.
EDward Gaming
The first Chinese LoL team that we could see at Worlds 2025 is EDward Gaming. The former 2021 Worlds Champions have rebuilt their roster in 2025, and it’s safe to say that they are back to relevance.
It will be hard for the team to lift the trophy once again, but thanks to the star mid/jungle duo, EDG is definitely a solid contender. We strongly believe it is going to be one of the dark horses in the championship.
JD Gaming
The next LPL team that will probably do well at Worlds 2025 is JD Gaming. The 2023 winners are one of the more consistent Chinese LoL powerhouses and will always remain a solid name in the game.
2025 was an interesting year for the team because it made several important roster changes. Despite that, JDG’s identity remains relatively intact, meaning it remains among the favorites from the LPL.
JD Gaming’s jungler and bot laner are among the best in the world, so fans expect a lot from the squad. It’s safe to say that JD Gaming will most likely secure a top 4 finish.
Top Esports
Despite their domestic prowess, Top Esports is one of the LoL powerhouses that often struggles on the international stage. The team will enter Worlds 2025 hungry for success, and its current roster includes an intriguing mixture of experience and young players.
Considering how the team performs on the international stage, we expect it to flourish or crumble early on. The players definitely have what they need to shine, but we will have to wait and see if this will happen.
Bilibili Gaming
Those who’ve been following the LPL know that Bilibili Gaming is one of the best Chinese LoL teams. The squad has had consistent results in the LPL playoffs and has become one of the most respected contenders. Gone are the days when the team was dismissed as underdogs.
Bilibili Gaming has one of the best top laners in the world, so fans expect to see good results. Some may agree that BLG is not on the same level as EDG or JDG (at least now), but the team is capable of shocking everyone and achieving good results.
The LPL Against Other Regions
The LPL is definitely one of the most promising regions for Worlds 2025. There’s no arguing the LCK remains the favorite and the LPL’s greatest rivals, but some of the top Chinese teams can bring down the likes of T1 and Gen. G.
The LPL is in a better position in terms of the LTA, LEC, and LCP. This means we expect to see an epic battle between the best from the LPL and the LCK. In fact, we would not be surprised if these two regions met in the Grand Final.
Worlds 2025 Predictions
Assuming that the 4 Chinese teams mentioned earlier qualify for Worlds, we expect JD Gaming to perform the best. It’s the top-tier LPL team right now and among the favorites to win the event.
Although it is not that likely, Top Esports could potentially shock everyone and achieve good results. The same is true for Bilili Gaming. Lastly, we have EDward Gaming, a team that will likely reach the quarterfinals or even semifinals.
Closing Thoughts
Overall, the LPL 2025 enters Worlds 2025 as one of the potential favorites. Considering that the tournament will take place in China, the teams have an excellent chance of winning the trophy. It definitely won’t be easy because the top-tier LCK teams are on another level, but we will have to wait and see what happens.
Stay tuned as we at Blix.gg will continue to follow everything that happens at Worlds 2025.
