英雄联盟全球总决赛回到美国：10 月 15 日洛杉矶开打，中国 LPL 四队全部晋级
电竞圈一年里最大的赛事要开打了。2026 年英雄联盟全球总决赛（Worlds 2026）将于 10 月 15 日在洛杉矶的 Riot Games Arena 揭幕，全程在美国举行，总决赛 11 月 14 日移师纽约布鲁克林的巴克莱中心——这是全球总决赛第一次来到美国东海岸。本届共 19 支队伍，入围赛先由 Karmine Corp（欧洲）、Cloud9（北美）、MVK（亚太）和巴西赛区二号种子 4 队打五局三胜的双败淘汰，只有一队能挤进 16 强瑞士轮。
中国 LPL 赛区今年拿到 4 个名额，且全部直通瑞士轮（10 月 23 日起在得州艾伦市举行）：Anyone's Legend（AL）、Bilibili Gaming（BLG）、Top Esports（TES）和 Invictus Gaming（IG）。其中 IG 是靠地区资格赛最后一张门票杀回来的——9 月 19 日他们 3 比 1 击败 JDG，队中的 TheShy 和 Rookie 是 2018 年为 IG 捧杯的老将。最大看点还是韩国 T1：他们已经 2023、2024、2025 三连冠，中单 Faker 冲击史无前例的四连冠，但今年 T1 在韩国国内只拿到三号种子，身前是 Gen.G 和 Hanwha Life，签运并不轻松。
对在美国的观众来说，今年最大的好处是不用熬夜：入围赛洛杉矶时间上午 11 点开打，瑞士轮多在中午，所有比赛在 lolesports.com、Twitch 和 YouTube 上免费直播。想去现场看球的朋友，洛杉矶入围赛的小场馆只有 300 个座位，手慢无；真正有机会买到票的是得州艾伦的瑞士轮和淘汰赛。另外，这个周末（10 月 9 日至 11 日）格斗游戏迷还有法国尼斯的 EVO France 2026，《街头霸王 6》《铁拳 8》等项目同步开打，官方 YouTube 和 Twitch 频道有直播。（资料来源：Riot Games 官方公布赛程、英雄联盟赛事官网 lolesports.com、维基百科赛事条目）
League of Legends Worlds Returns to the US: Four LPL Teams In, Play-Ins Open Oct. 15 in Los Angeles
The biggest event of the esports year is about to start. The 2026 League of Legends World Championship (Worlds 2026) opens Oct. 15 at the Riot Games Arena in Los Angeles and stays in the United States throughout, ending with the final on Nov. 14 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn — the first Worlds final ever held on the US East Coast. Nineteen teams are in: the play-in stage comes first, with Karmine Corp (EMEA), Cloud9 (North America), MVK (Asia-Pacific) and Brazil's No. 2 seed fighting through a best-of-five double-elimination bracket for a single spot in the 16-team Swiss stage.
China's LPL earned four berths this year, all straight into the Swiss stage (from Oct. 23 in Allen, Texas): Anyone's Legend (AL), Bilibili Gaming (BLG), Top Esports (TES) and Invictus Gaming (IG). IG took the hardest road, beating JD Gaming 3–1 on Sept. 19 in the regional qualifier to claim China's last ticket; veterans TheShy and Rookie, who won the title with IG back in 2018, are back on the roster. The headline storyline, though, is Korea's T1: winners in 2023, 2024 and 2025, with mid laner Faker chasing an unprecedented fourth straight crown — yet T1 arrives only as Korea's third seed, behind Gen.G and Hanwha Life Esports, with a tougher draw.
For US viewers the best news is the clock: play-ins start at 11 a.m. Pacific in Los Angeles and most Swiss-stage days begin around noon Central, all streamed free on lolesports.com, Twitch and YouTube. Thinking of going in person? The Los Angeles play-in studio seats only about 300, so the realistic ticket is the Swiss stage and knockouts in Allen, Texas. One bonus for this weekend: fighting-game fans get EVO France 2026 in Nice from Oct. 9–11, headlined by Street Fighter 6 and Tekken 8, with official streams on YouTube and Twitch.
