The Knockout Stage is soon taking off at Worlds 2024, and the time has come to start setting in your final picks of the tournament!

With the Quarterfinals Pick'Ems now officially open, we will take a look at how to make  your picks as well as how you can better guide your selections for the final stages of Worlds.

Don't take too long to make your picks, however, as the predictions close before each Quarterfinal match, starting on October 17th, at 2 pm CEST.

Once more, we invite all of you to join the official Strafe Esports Leaderboard for the Worlds 2024 Pick'Em challenge, where you'll be able to compare picks against one another as well as against our own team of experts!

How to do your Worlds 2024 Pick'Ems?

To access the Pick'Em challenge, you can visit the official LoL Esports link. Once on there, you will have the option to insert your picks for the teams who you believe will advance through the Quarterfinals at Worlds 2024.

Below is the scheduled dates and times at which the Pick'Em challenge closes for each Quarterfinal match:

  • LNG Esports vs Weibo Gaming: 2.15 pm CEST, October 17th
  • Hanwha Life vs Bilibili Gaming: 2.15 pm CEST, October 18th
  • Top Esports vs T1: 2.15 pm CEST, October 19th
  • Gen.G vs FlyQuest: 2.15 pm CEST, October 20th

LNG have been in amazing form, breezing through the Swiss Stage at Worlds 2024. Weibo, meanwhile, had to pull all the stops in order to qualify for the Quarterfinals on their final life.

The last time these two teams met, one month ago in the LPL Regional Finals, LNG came away with a convincing 3-0 victory. We don't expect this time to be any different.

HLE and BLG both came into Worlds 2024 as favorites to win it all. BLG, however, have struggled with consistency during the Swiss Stage.

The series could realistically swing either way depending on which version of BLG decides to show up for the Quarterfinals. For now, though, the Hanwha Life definitely holds a slight edge.

Another tough series to call. Top Esports defeated T1 in their first game of Worlds 2024, but the game was a very competitive affair.

Though TES certainly has what it takes to go far at Worlds this year, the reigning World Champions of T1 are slightly favored in a long series largely due to Faker's unrivaled shotcalling and experience.

Unfortunately for FlyQuest, this was the easiest pick of the Quarterfinals.

Gen.G are perhaps the biggest favorites to walk away with the Worlds trophy this time around, and they will not let FlyQuest stand in the way of that.

Keep an eye out!

Paying close attention to how teams perform in the Quarterfinals can prove to be crucial for making correct predictions for the rest of the Knockout Stage in the Worlds 2024 Pick'Em challenge.

With amazing rewards for the top scorers in both the Pick'Em and Crystal Ball challenges, such as the brand new Worlds 2024 Viego skin, you will want to try your best on your way to amassing as many points as possible.

You can catch all the Quarterfinals action live on the official Worlds 2024 Twitch and Youtube channels.

Locke the Ashen Exorcist: Inside the Design, Lore, and Visual Identity of League of Legends' Newest Champion

Riot Games is no stranger to ambitious champion releases, but the latest addition to the League of Legends roster carries a particularly distinct energy.

Locke in League of Legends: Abilities, Playstyle, Release Date

Riot’s newest champion, Corvin Locke, arrives as a nail-slinging exorcist versed in forbidden rites, shaped by a childhood steeped in Demacian lies and hypocrisy. Born to Demacian occultists, Locke grew up learning a brutal lesson: demons are not the source of humanity’s darkness, but its consequence. That belief drives his mission now—to tear through every soul, expose its hidden rot, and make the world a little more honest, one exorcism at a time.
