League of Legends Clash in 2025
The League of Legends 2025 season is well underway, and just like every season, Riot is also bringing back Clash. The 5v5 tournaments will allow players to form their own teams and compete for rewards and the adrenaline of playing as one squad for one common goal: victory.
While the game developer initially lowered the frequency of tournaments this year, which was supposed to be once every two months, the dissatisfaction in the community brought the number back to once a month.
Below you can find the updated schedule for Clash tournaments taking place in LoL in 2025.

What is Clash in League of Legends?
LoL Clash is an in-game tournament organized by Riot Games where you can get the experience of playing in a competitive environment with your friends or teammates. By forming teams of five and having similar skill levels clash against each other, normal players can play and feel the adrenaline of playing in teams and compete for victory.

Matches are always held on weekends and players are rewarded with determined prizes based on their final position in the brackets. For example, a tournament winner would get a guaranteed orb containing a skin shard and a “champie” icon.

From now onwards, players will be receiving double the VP every time their team wins, while the amount of VP required for each reward will remain the same. Below are the rewards and required VP for each as a reminder:
