LCP names 60 co-streamers in ten languages for Split 3 of 2026

Sixty creators will carry the last split of the League of Legends Championship Pacific on their own channels. LoL Esports, Riot Games' esports site, published the list of official virtual co-streamers for Split 3 of the LCP 2026 season on July 22, three days before the split begins on July 25.

The list has two parts. Eight team co-streamers are attached to five of the league's eight clubs. The other 52 creators are grouped by language, ten languages in all, from English and Mandarin to Hungarian, Polish and Tagalog. They stream on four services: Twitch, YouTube, TikTok and Facebook.

What the league published

The LCP is the Pacific league of Riot Games' League of Legends circuit. A co-streamer is a creator authorized to rebroadcast the official feed live on their own channel, with their own commentary, for their own audience.

The announcement presents the list as some of the official co-streamers joining the season, and the league adds that it expects no major changes but will announce more co-streamers before the split. The 60 names are therefore the list as it stood on July 22, not necessarily the final one.

The page gives no rules for co-streaming and no conditions. What it sets out is who streams, in which language and on which platform.

Team co-streamers for five clubs

The first group follows clubs rather than languages: each team co-streamer is listed under one organization.

Five clubs have one or more:

• CTBC Flying Oyster: Kevin, on Twitch;
• DetonatioN FocusMe: Yutapon, on Twitch;
• Fukuoka SoftBank HAWKS gaming: Takaya Special, on Twitch;
• Ground Zero Gaming: Vestion, on Twitch;
• Team Secret Whales: four creators, Leomiho on Facebook, and Hoàng Sama, Ling Cao Thủ and Tạ Vy on YouTube.

Team Secret Whales has half of the team co-streamers on its own, and it is the only club whose team streams are on YouTube and Facebook. Every other team co-streamer streams on Twitch.

Three of the eight clubs that open Split 3, according to the league's schedule, have no team co-streamer on the July 22 list.

Ten languages, from Mandarin to Tagalog

The second group is organized by language. It is where most of the list sits: 52 creators.

Mandarin is the largest group, with 17 creators, all on Twitch. English and Vietnamese follow with 10 each, the English creators all on Twitch and the Vietnamese ones all on YouTube. Those three languages hold 37 of the 52 language co-streamers.

That matches the picture Esports Insider gave at the start of the year. When the LCP opened co-streamer applications in January, Esports Insider reported that its co-streamers came mainly from the Vietnamese, Mandarin and English-speaking communities. The application form, which Esports Insider reported on January 12 ahead of the season start on January 16, asked creators for their preferred streaming platforms, their target market and their language. Esports Insider also noted that former professional players, among them SwordArt, Yutapon and SofM, had co-streamed the LCP 2025 Season Finals. The Split 3 list shows, for every name, the platform and either a language or a club.

The smaller groups widen the map. Indonesian has four creators, three on YouTube and one on TikTok. Japanese has four, two on Twitch and two on YouTube. Thai has two, one on each of those platforms. Tagalog has one creator, on TikTok.

Where the co-streams sit beside the official broadcast

The league runs its own channels in five languages for Split 3, according to its guide to the split published on July 13: English on Twitch and YouTube, Vietnamese on YouTube and TikTok, Traditional Chinese on Twitch and YouTube, Japanese on Twitch and YouTube, and Thai on Twitch and YouTube.

The co-streamers cover those languages and add others. French, Hungarian, Indonesian, Polish and Tagalog appear on the co-streamer list but have no official channel in the guide. For viewers in those languages, the co-streams are the only coverage in their own language that the league lists for the split.

Platforms tell a similar story. Twitch carries most of the list, but the league also reaches Vietnamese viewers on YouTube, where all ten Vietnamese language co-streamers stream, and uses TikTok and Facebook for a few creators.

Twitch hosts 38 of the 60 creators, close to two thirds, and YouTube 19, close to one third. The two TikTok streams are Indonesian and Tagalog, and the only Facebook stream belongs to a Team Secret Whales co-streamer.

One platform is missing from the list. On June 26, Riot Games announced that Kick would carry live broadcasts of global and regional events of LoL Esports, Valorant and Teamfight Tactics, starting with MSI 2026, everywhere except China and Korea. The company said co-streamers on Kick would be held to the same moderation practices and standards as creators on other platforms, and that their viewers would receive the same drops and incentives as on other platforms during global event broadcasts. None of the 60 LCP Split 3 co-streamers listed on July 22 streams on Kick.

What the co-streamers will be showing

The 2026 season is the first LCP season built around Championship Points, a system announced in November 2025 that tracks results across all three splits, Sheep Esports reported at the time. The last place at the World Championship no longer depends on Split 3 alone, every playoff series of the season is a best-of-five, and a team can no longer qualify for Worlds without winning a best-of-five. The season opened on January 16 with Split 1, a single round robin of best-of-three series followed by playoffs for the top six, with a place at First Stand 2026 in Sao Paulo at stake, Esports Insider reported.

Split 3 is the third and final split of the LCP season. It runs from July 25 to August 30, and the league's guide sets out a format built in three steps.

The first is a Swiss Stage. In a Swiss format, teams are paired each round with opponents on the same win-loss record, avoiding repeat match-ups where possible. A team that reaches three wins advances to the playoffs, and a team that reaches three losses is eliminated. Series are a mix of best-of-three and best-of-five, and every match that can give a team its third win or third loss is a best-of-five. In Round 1, the top four teams of the Split 2 Knockout Stage face the bottom four, drawn at random.

Final seeding matches, all best-of-five, then decide the first seed, which can choose its opponent between the two third seeds, and break ties among teams with three losses. The four qualified teams play a double-elimination bracket of best-of-five series, where a team must lose twice to be knocked out.

The split also decides who goes to the World Championship. The top two teams of the Split 3 Playoffs earn places at Worlds, and the team with the most Championship Points at the end of the season also qualifies. Ties on points are broken by playoff placement, then by Swiss Stage results. Swiss Stage records carry points of their own: 50 for a 3-0, 40 for a 3-1, 30 for a 3-2, 15 for a 2-3, 3 for a 1-3 and none for a 0-3, with five extra points for the winner of the tie-breaker played between teams level after three losses.

What comes next

The split opens on July 25 with four series: Ground Zero Gaming against MVK Esports, Fukuoka SoftBank HAWKS gaming against Team Secret Whales, DetonatioN FocusMe against GAM Esports, and CTBC Flying Oyster against Deep Cross Gaming. Matchdays start at 4pm GMT+7, which the league also gives as 5pm GMT+8, 6pm GMT+9 and 8pm GMT+11.

The split ends with Finals Weekend in Taipei on August 29 and 30, at the Taipei Heping Basketball Gymnasium. The split is played in front of fans: tickets are sold per match day through KKTIX and at FamilyMart stores across Taiwan, with each week's sales opening on the Wednesday one week before the match weekend, at noon GMT+8, the league's guide says. Each ticket covers every match of its day, and the ticketing page is offered in English, Chinese and Japanese. Riot Games has set Worlds 2026 for October 15 to November 14. The LCP's Promotion Series follows from November 10 to 13. There, the Championship Points of the league's Guest teams decide which of them, up to three, must defend their LCP place against top teams of the Asia-Pacific domestic leagues; a Guest team that qualifies for Worlds is exempt.
