Ahead of the League of Legends World Championship 2025 on October 14th, Riot Games has unveiled which content creators will co-stream the competition.
In total, 120 co-streamers have been selected across 18 languages, featuring a range of well-known esports personalities and professional players. As a result of being named on the list, the creator is now permitted to stream League of Legends’ season-ending event.
Perhaps one of the more surprising names listed by Riot Games is current Los Ratones player Martin ‘Rekkles’ Larsson. The four-time LEC champion is currently competing with the tier-two organisation at EMEA Masters. Rekkles is also joined by Los Ratones’ founder Marc ‘Caedrel’ Lamont, as an English co-streamer.
The English co-streaming list also features a litany of former pro players-turned content creators. This includes Yiliang ‘Doublelift’ Peng, William ‘Meteos’ Hartman, Eugene ‘Pobelter’ Park, Christian ‘IWDominate’ Rivera and Zachary ‘Sneaky’ Scuderi, among others. Prominent League of Legends personalities Nick ‘LS’ De Cesare and Jakob ‘YamatoCannon’ Mebdi have already been named in the stacked line-up.
League of Legends’ Global Appeal
As highlighted by Riot Games’ announcement, the League of Legends World Championship has a significant global appeal. Last year, the event recorded a peak viewership of 6.94m, not including Chinese viewership platforms.
The Spanish line-up includes the likes of popular creator Ibai Llanos, the co-founder of Spanish esports organisation KOI, while in the French line-up, Karmine Corp founder Kamel ‘Kameto’ Kebir was announced. Other names that might stick out to League of Legends esports fans are former LCK players Song ‘Smeb’ Kyung-ho and Lee ‘Wolf’ Jae-wan (Korean co-streamers), as well as currently Ninjas In Pyjamas mid-laner Kim ‘Doinb’ Tae-sang (Mandarin co-streamer) and SEA legend Đỗ ‘Levi’ Duy Khánh (Vietnamese co-streamer).
Co-streaming has become a major part of Riot Games’ broadcast strategy over the past few years, with this practice growing significantly. In 2023, for example, Riot Games announced that it would allow 30 streamers to co-stream MSI 2023.
At MSI 2025, the event recorded a peak viewership of 3.4m, according to Esports Charts, with Caedral alone contributing with a peak viewing figure of 256,000.
Alongside being able to watch League of Legends Worlds 2025 via co-streamers, fans can also tune in to the event’s official broadcast on Twitch and YouTube.
