The LoL Championship Series (colloquially known as the LCS) is Riot Games' North American franchised league. Formerly known as the NA LCS prior to the EU LCS rebranding as the LEC in 2019, the league was launched in 2013 as the top tier League of Legends competition in North America. Following the massive success, Riot Games franchised the league, with 10 teams becoming permanent partners, prior to the Spring 2018 split. For further details on the franchising, see the NA LCS Franchising article.
Ahead of the 2025 season, LCS was merged into the LTA and superseded by LTA North.[1]
