SOOP to Launch 2026 Worlds Event Page on October 15
The SOOP platform will launch a dedicated event page for the 2026 League of Legends World Championship (Worlds) on October 15. The platform has announced various viewer participation programs, including a raffle for 100,000 "Hextech Chest & Key" sets based on watch time.
All Worlds matches will be hosted on the official SOOP LCK channel. The broadcast lineup includes seven official co-streamers: Kim Min-gyo, Lee Sang-ho, Annyeong Suya, Smebim, Gamja Gabi, Dewdan, and Gosegu. Additionally, LCK partner teams DNS and KRX, along with several active LCK players, are scheduled to host co-streams.
The tournament begins on October 16 with the Play-In Stage, followed by the Swiss Stage and Knockout Stage, concluding with the Finals on November 15. Viewer events will run throughout the tournament and feature several interactive elements:
- Mission Advent Calendar: daily missions tied to match days that grant different rewards.
- Drops: a watch-time-based raffle, including opportunities to receive Gems via unannounced redeem codes during broadcasts.
- Cheering Gauge: a system where viewers can support an LCK team to enter prize raffles upon reaching specific levels.
- Match Prediction: a program allowing fans to predict match winners for a chance to win prizes.
Fans of Gen.G, T1, and Dplus KIA can participate in special events to win autographed jerseys from these teams' players by watching official co-streams. New emotes representing these three Worlds participants will also be distributed.
