League of Legends Champions Korea, aka the LCK, is back again for the Summer Split following the earlier Spring Split. LCK Summer 2024 will start on June 12 and end on September 8, for 12 weeks of high-stakes LoL action.
Renowned for producing world-class talent like T1's Lee 'Faker' Sang-hyeok, whose iconic champions were recently honored in patch 14.12's Hall of Legends skins, the LCK continues to be a powerhouse in the global League of Legends scene. This dominance was evident in the recent Mid-Season Invitational in May, where Gen.G Esports clinched victory, securing an additional seed for Korea in the upcoming LoL Worlds 2024.
As the current world champions, T1 are eager to defend their title, but they will face fierce competition from nine other teams vying for the top spot. Keep reading for a comprehensive breakdown of LCK Summer 2024, including the competition format, team rosters, current standings, and streaming details.
