Following the play-in stage on Sept. 30, you’ll have the chance to drag and drop your predictions in the order you think the groups will play out.

Once the group stage has finished, you’ll then be able to pick the winners for each match during the knockout stage and ultimately settle on who you think will hoist the Summoner’s Cup and earn the 2020 World Championship title.

  • Quarters: 500 blue essence and random champion shard
  • Semis: 500 orange essence

For correctly guessing every stage of the competition, though, you’ll receive bigger and better prizes.
