Worlds 2026 runs 2026-10-20 to 2026-11-20. Most contracts in Riot's official database expire on 16 November — with the semifinals and final still to play. This page covers the two things that matter for reading the LCK 2027 rosters: the 90 players whose contracts end across the ten LCK teams, and the 37 Korean players in other leagues whose contracts end.
An expiring contract is not a departure — most players re-sign. This page reports only the expiry date from Riot's official sheet and does not speculate about who stays or leaves. Nationality is not in the sheet, so 15 players outside the LCK have none recorded and are absent below.
The field is not set yet — teams appear here as regional finals conclude. Rebuilt three times a day from Riot's sheet.
