1. Edward Gaming
Edward Gaming are the reigning League of Legends World Champions. Hailing from China, they have over $3 million in lifetime earnings from LoL, and they don’t look like slowing down anytime soon. Edward Gaming is famous for its overwhelming aggressive gameplay that paralyzes its opponents. Edward Gaming has a strong chance of becoming back-to-back League of Legends World Champions. However, they face some stiff competition from the likes of JD Gaming and Top Esports. These two teams came first and second in the LPL Summer 2022, while Edward Gaming took 3rd.
2. DWG KIA
DWG KIA are the number 1 Korean League of Legends team in the world! They came second to Edward Gaming at last year’s World Championships. This year DWG KIA will be looking for revenge in a bid to become world champions. DWG KIA has tons of big match experience and almost $2 million in tournament winnings. Their biggest win came at the 2020 World Championship, where they scooped the first-place prize of $556,000! We can’t wait to see a rematch of DWG KIA and Edward Gaming.
3. JD Gaming
JD Gaming is another world-class League of Legends team from China. They have $1.3 million in tournament earnings and have a number of Tier 1 events. JD Gaming was created in 2017, but it wasn’t until the last few years they have established themselves as a truly world-class team. They are in fine form after winning the LPL Summer 2022 and have a great shot at winning the World Championships in September!
4. Top Esports
China just continues to produce incredible League of Legends teams! Top Esports just took second place at the LPL Summer 2022 and beat Edward Gaming. With their performance, they put the League of Legends world on notice. Top Esports is a bit of a dark horse at the World Championships but don’t be surprised if they make it to the grand final.
5. Gen.G
Gen.G are a world-class League of Legends team from Korea! They were formed in 2017 and have just under $1 million in League of Legends tournament winnings. They took 5th at the 2020 World Champions and then 3rd at the 2021 World Championships. Gen.G’s performance is trending in the right direction, 2022 may be their year. Gen.G’s roster is filled with incredibly talented players, and the team is in amazing form. They just won the LCK Summer 2022 and took second at the LCK Spring 2022. We expect a strong performance from Gen.G at the World Championships.
Final Thoughts
Edward Gaming are the reigning League of Legends World Champions and the best team in the world. They have a great chance of becoming back-to-back world champions but will have to battle the likes of DWG KIA, JD Gaming, and Top Esports.
