LoL Worlds 2026 Pick’Ems are here ahead of Worlds 2026. This time, the Crystal Ball adds another layer to the event, with even more rewards.
As always with Worlds, we, as players, get the chance to make our Pick’Ems for a selection of rewards. This year, a perfect set of Pick’Ems will even net you every single Ultimate Skin as a reward.
To help you on that adventure, we’ve picked our Pick’Ems, to help you judge your calls. We’re not going to guarantee a win here, but if there is a choice you’re not too sure about, maybe we can help guide it.
Worlds 2026 Pick’Ems
Pick’Ems are broken down into three sets. Play-Ins, Swiss, and Knockouts. The Play-Ins stage ends on October 15th, so make sure to get those picks in soon. Here is the breakdown of the dates.
- October 10th: Pick’Ems and Crystal Ball start.
- October 15th: Crystal Ball and Play-In predictions end.
- October 18th: Swiss predictions start.
- October 23rd: Swiss predictions end.
- October 31st: Knockout predictions start.
- November 3rd: Knockout predictions end.
- November 14th: Worlds ends, and rewards are given out.
Here are our Play-ins picks.
UB – Semifinals – FUR vs MVK – FUR and C9 vs KC – C9
UB – Finals – C9
LB – Semifinals – KC
LB – Finals – KC
Finals – KC
Overall, we think KC will take it. Looking at the data and what other people are suggesting, this is likely the result. C9 will have the home crowd buff, which is why we think they beat KC the first time, but KC will come into the Grand Final off the back of two wins, and then get revenge on C9.
Here are our Swiss Stage picks.
We’ll update these on October 18th.
