There are actually a variety of types of bets available for the 2025 League of Legends World Championship.

The most common betting picks are indeed based around siding with potential winning teams. This can be the winner in one particular match, or for the entire tournament. Favored teams usually offer lower lower returns to bettors if they win, while underdogs and upsets can offer major upside.
Other types of bets will often vary by game. With League of Legends having so many intricate rules and marks of success, there are quite a few different betting opportunities associated with the game: These are some of the more popular picks that can typically be made:
- Which team will get first blood in each game
- How many total games will be contested in a series
- Which team captures the first dragon in a game
- How long a game will last
- How many towers will be taken during a game
Tips for betting on LoL Worlds 2025
While there’s never a guarantee of which team will win or which way any particular betting pick will go, there are some betting tips that can potentially help increase the chances of success when considering how best to bet on LoL Worlds 2025.
- Look for trends in previous matches that the participating teams have been involved, and consider how those results might affect your picks. Is one team usually stronger than the other during the early game, hinting at which way first blood could go? Does one team prioritize map objectives more clearly than the other, giving you an idea of who’s likely to take the first dragon?
- While it’s tempting to always bet on the favorite, remember that the favorites will typically offer lower returns, and upsets do happen. Smartly picking the right underdog can go a long way.
- Carefully consider where you want to play and which platform best aligns with your preferences. For example, a platform like BET365 offers a polished experience that’s easy to jump into, while Parimatch stands out for an excellent mobile experience. Look for the features that are most relevant to you.
- The biggest tip of all is to set a budget and stick to it. Betting on esports can be great fun, but it’s important to bet responsibly.
