The LCK is the South Korea’s premier pro league, home to the best League of Legends players in the world. Here’s a full history of every player and team who has won an LCK title.
With the LCK being the winningest region in the world when it comes to Worlds titles, it should come as no surprise that this region is hailed as the best in the world. Teams the world ’round travel there to get the best practice they can both in solo queue and, if they’re lucky enough, scrims.
However, the LCK also has one of the biggest skill disparities between top teams and bottom teams. Over the years, there are a select few teams that have really dominated domestically, though Hanwha Life Esports have broken that trend by winning the LCK Summer 2024 title in a historic first for the org.
Additionally, the Champions league that existed before the LCK came out crowned a number of winners in LoL’s very first years as an esport in the region. Teams from other regions competed in Champions Korea as well in what was a very different era of League of Legends.
Here’s a full list of all LCK & Champions league winning teams and players:

LCK champions by country
At this time, no one from outside of South Korea has won a tournament in the country. What’s more, there aren’t any players from outside of South Korea participating within the league at all at this time. While there were at one point rumors jojopyun was going to get picked up by an LCK team, he ended up going over to Cloud9.
The closest thing we have currently is Rekkles in the LCK CL.
