LPL announced the 2025 first stage regular season schedule

The 2025 LPL announced the first regular season schedule . The competition will be held from January 12 to February 16, 2025. The BO5 format will be adopted throughout the competition, with a total of 16 teams participating. These 16 teams will be divided into 4 groups and will compete in a single round-robin in the group stage. The top two teams in each group will advance to the knockout stage.  

The first match will be scheduled at 5pm on January 12th, with OMG vs. WBG. In addition, other important matches worth paying attention to include IG vs. NIP on January 19th and RNG vs. IG on January 25th, which is also known as the "Spring Festival Gala of E-sports".  

In addition, on February 15, IG will play against FPX. All teams are actively preparing for the game and striving to achieve good results in this new season. In order to enhance the audience experience, this event will also introduce some new rule changes, including the bilateral fearless draft mode and the SOLO side selection mechanism. This means that in each game, the two teams will decide which side will select first through a special SOLO session, which increases the viewing and unpredictability of the game.  

In addition to the fierce competition, each club has also prepared a series of activities and support measures for fans. Some clubs provide a wealth of on-site support materials for fans to collect for free, including a variety of peripheral products. The specific time and place for collecting the materials will be notified in advance, so the audience can pay close attention to the announcements of their favorite teams.
