The second day of action is over at the Swiss Stage of Worlds 2025. Now, some teams find themselves just one win away from making it to the playoffs, while others stand on the brink of elimination. Let's take a look at the Round 3 draw of the Swiss Stage to see what matchups await.

Worlds 2025 Swiss Stage Round 3 Draw

After a rough start to the tournament, it's do or die time for some teams at Worlds. But first, we will find out who will become the first two teams to qualify for the playoffs. Here's a look at the Worlds 2025 Swiss Stage bracket following today's draw:

Up until now, we have had all Swiss Stage matches of the same round take place during a single day. This time it will be different:

Round 3 High Matches & Schedule (Bo3):

Round 3 Mid Matches & Schedule (Bo1):

Round 3 Low Matches & Schedule (Bo3):

Perhaps not too surprisingly, no Western team finds itself in the upper side of the bracket. What is surprising though, it that KT Rolster have become the only LCK team to go 2-0, and are just one win away from locking a spot in playoffs.

Over in the middle part of the bracket, League of Legends fans everywhere are getting a treat, as Gen.G and T1 will load up to play their 33rd game of 2025 in what is a bona fide classic of our esport.

And then we have the LEC. Unfortunately, one European team will be heading home after this round of matches, as Movistar KOI and Fnatic will be forced to eliminate their compatriots if they wish to fight another day at Worlds. G2, meanwhile, will get the chance to score revenge against the very team that eliminated them from Worlds last year: the LPL champs of Bilibili Gaming.

We're approaching the first set of eliminations at Worlds 2025. From now on, every game counts.
