Team Secret Whales Become First Team to Qualify for Worlds 2026
Team Secret Whales have officially become the first team to secure a place at the League of Legends World Championship 2026. The LCP representatives locked in their Worlds berth after defeating CTBC Flying Oyster in today's LCP 2026 Split 3 match, earning enough Championship Points to guarantee qualification regardless of their final placement in the Summer Split playoffs.
The victory proved crucial in the race for Worlds, as it mathematically ensured that Team Secret Whales can no longer be overtaken in the Championship Points standings. Even if the team fails to reach the Summer Split Grand Final, they have already accumulated enough points across the 2026 season to clinch one of the LCP's World Championship slots.
Team Secret Whales have enjoyed an outstanding 2026 campaign, consistently finishing near the top of the LCP standings. Their strong performances throughout the year, including winning the opening split, allowed them to build an insurmountable Championship Points lead before the season reached its final stages.
With their qualification secured, Team Secret Whales become the first confirmed participant for Worlds 2026, while the remaining regional representatives will be determined through the ongoing Summer Split playoffs and regional qualification process.
