South Korea's 2026 Asian Games League of Legends Team Roster Revealed: Meet the Star-Studded Lineup
South Korea's 2026 Asian Games League of Legends team roster has been officially announced by the Korean Esports Association (KeSPA). The team comprises six players, including well-known stars from the LCK. The final candidates for the team were revealed by KeSPA, featuring players from top LCK teams.
The selected players for South Korea's 2026 Asian Games League of Legends team are Faker, Zeus, Gumayusi, Keria, and two other players from prominent LCK teams. Each player on the roster has previously won the League of Legends world championship, with Faker being a six-time world champion. The lineup reunites Faker, Zeus, Gumayusi, and Keria, who were part of the successful ZOFGK roster on T1.
Before officially representing South Korea at the 2026 Asian Games, the roster must receive final approval from the Korean Olympic Committee. Players, along with their guardians, coaches, and team representatives, have the opportunity to file appeals regarding the roster selections until May 28. Being selected for the Asian Games team offers significant benefits to the players, potentially exempting them from mandatory military service if they win a gold medal at the event.
The 2026 Asian Games are scheduled to be held in September in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan, with esports titles, including League of Legends, featured as medal events. The inclusion of League of Legends in the tournament is expected to draw significant attention, following its successful debut as a medal event in the previous Asian Games.
