The 2025 LoL KeSPA Cup schedule is now live, and starting December 6, 2025, to December 14, 2025, you will be able to catch the Korean LCK elites compete against each other in this offseason event. Apart from the Korean team going head-to-head, they will be joined by Team Liquid and Cloud9, the two LCS rosters in this event.
Below is everything you need to know about the upcoming 2025 KeSPA Cup event.
KeSPA Cup 2025 Format
The 2025 KeSPA Cup will feature 14 teams, who will be divided into three groups. They will each be participating in a single round-robin group stage play with all matches being a best-of-one.
The first team from each group will directly advance into the knockout stage, while the teams that placed second will be a part of the breakout stage. The breakout stage will have best-of-three matches, with the winner making their way to join the group winners in the best-of-three knockout stage.
This will then lead to the grand finals, which will be a best-of-five.
All KeSPA Cup 2025 teams and rosters
Compared to the previous year’s format, where most teams were fielding their academy roster, the 2025 KeSPA Cup will see 7 of the 10 LCK teams in action, who will be fielding their 2026 primary line-up. This is because there are greater stakes involved, as participation for players who want to qualify for the 2026 Asian Games is now mandatory in the Cup.
