Quarterfinals Draw and Schedule:

Unfortunately for the LCK, their two most recent finalists will take each other on in the opening match of the playoffs, which means only one can carry on towards the title. Meanwhile, after going flawless in the Swiss Stage, KT will battle the rising stars of CFO, a squad that became the first LCP team to reach Worlds Quarterfinals in over 10 years.

As for the remaining hope of the West, G2 will take on a struggling TES side in a match that may well deliver a Western team to the Semifinals of Worlds 2025. And last but not least, we have a true battle of the titans between AL and T1, two teams that have already met twice this year at MSI and the Esports World Cup.

The heat is up, and it's now or never for teams looking to come away with the trophy at Worlds 2025. Catch the start of the Quarterfinals on Tuesday, October 28th to follow the action!
