**LCK and LPL squads continue to set the standard heading into Worlds 2026.** Hanwha Life Esports captured MSI 2026, while Gen.G, T1, and Bilibili Gaming headline power rankings with multiple LCK and LPL slots already secured through summer playoffs. Western representatives such as G2 Esports, Karmine Corp, and Team Liquid sit at the bottom of implied-probability tables, reflecting limited recent success against Eastern rosters in international play. The Swiss-stage draw and knockout bracket further highlight matchup challenges for LEC and LCS sides, whose historical ceiling remains quarterfinals or earlier against the depth of Korean and Chinese lineups. Trader pricing aligns with this sustained regional gap.
