League Classic launches with a starting roster of 60 champions, all using their pre-rework kits, drawn from the mode's Season 3 foundation with additions cut off around 2013. The mode goes live on July 29, 2026. This is the full list, grouped by class, plus the champions Riot has confirmed for future waves and the notable names missing at launch. For what the mode actually is, see our League of Legends Classic guide.
Full League Classic Champion List (60)
These are the 60 champions in the League Classic starting roster, including all of the original 40 launch champions. Each plays with its older gameplay kit, so champions that have had a full rework since (Sion, Warwick, and Fiddlesticks among them) differ significantly from their live versions. Class reflects each champion's general archetype.

The three names dataminers were unsure about before the reveal (Corki, Kassadin, and Sion) are all confirmed in the starting 60. For when each of these champions first released, see our champions by release date list.
Champions Coming in Future Waves
The starting 60 are not the full plan. Riot's Meddler confirmed the launch build "aren't all the champs that will ever be in Classic," just the first wave. Eight champions are already confirmed to arrive in later patches:
- Akali
- Caitlyn
- Fiora
- Graves
- Irelia
- LeBlanc
- Mordekaiser
- Urgot
Urgot is a notable one: Meddler called old Urgot the kit he is personally most excited to play, but he lands in a future wave rather than at launch.
Notable Champions Missing at Launch
Because new-champion releases are cut off around 2013, anyone released after that is absent, which is most of the modern roster. Among older champions, the names players have flagged as missing from the starting 60 are Mordekaiser, Galio, and Udyr. Mordekaiser is already confirmed for a future wave; Galio and Udyr have not been confirmed either way.
What Era Are the Classic Kits From?
League Classic is not frozen to a single patch. Riot built it on a Season 3 foundation and pulled in elements from across the first four seasons, with champion releases stopping around 2013. That is why the roster looks like an early-to-mid LoL lineup rather than any one historical patch. For the full breakdown of the mode's era, items, runes, and systems, see the League Classic guide.
Will More Champions Be Added?
Yes. Beyond the eight already-confirmed future champions, Meddler said the 2013 cutoff is a target rather than a hard rule and that it "will depend on what people who play Classic want." Riot has also said it will update the mode over time, so the roster should keep growing after the July 29 launch.
