[1] Before 2024, the spring and summer champions qualified for the Mid-Season Invitational and World Championship respectively.

Since 2025, the LJL is a second division to the League of Legends Championship Pacific (LCP).

Each annual season of play is divided into three splits, Forge, Storm and Ignite, which then conclude a with playoff tournament known as the LJL Finals.
