Will EDward Gaming win the LPL 2026 season?

What this market is about

EDward Gaming, usually called EDG, is a Chinese esports organization competing in League of Legends’ LPL, the top professional league in China. The question here is simple: when the 2026 LPL season is officially completed, will EDG be named the winner? The market resolves using the league organizers’ official result, and if the season is delayed past December 31, 2026, canceled, or ends without a declared champion, it resolves to “Other.”

Why the market exists

A season-long championship is hard to judge far in advance because roster moves, coaching changes, patch changes, and bracket format all affect which team can get through the year. EDward Gaming is a familiar name to LPL followers, but a title run still depends on staying competitive through the whole season and across whatever playoff structure the league uses. The market is pricing the gap between EDG’s brand recognition and the reality that many other teams can contend for an LPL championship.

What can move the price

The biggest price moves would come from EDG’s roster being strengthened or weakened before or during the 2026 season, especially if a star player joins, leaves, or is inactive. Changes to the LPL format, playoff path, or the in-game patch/meta can also matter a lot in League of Legends, since some teams are built for certain styles more than others. Strong regular-season results, a deep playoff run, or official championship confirmation would support the Yes side, while early elimination, major roster instability, or a clearly stronger rival field would push it the other way.
