A stage is being set for a journey back in time to the early days of domestic League of Legends esports, often referred to as the era of romance.

Riot Games, the organizer of the League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK), announced on the 14th that it will host the LCK Legends Match on August 4 at LoL PARK in Jongno-gu, Seoul.

Riot Games previously held a 'LoL Classic' exhibition match at the 2026 Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) finals, which took place at the Daejeon Convention Center (DCC) in Yuseong-gu, Daejeon. The event electrified the crowd as former professional LoL players, including Ambition (Kang Chan-yong), PawN (Heo Won-seok), and Captain Jack (Kang Hyung-woo), took to the stage.

Immediately following the LoL Classic exhibition match, Riot Games unveiled information regarding regional special matches, and the LCK released a teaser video for the LCK Legends Match. The video outlines plans to summon the raw, unfiltered gameplay that frequently defined the so-called era of romance, when players followed their hearts into battle.

The roster for the LCK Legends Match, to be held at LoL PARK on August 4, will be announced at a later date. With legends who represented the LCK since the dawn of LoL esports expected to gather in one place, the event promises to be a special stage for long-time fans to revisit the memories of that golden era.
