League of Legends' Fearless Draft system is set to continue throughout the 2025 esports season, according to a report from Sheep Esports. This system, which prevents champions from being played twice in a series, has received widespread acclaim from both fans and professionals.

The feature has successfully diversified the meta and addressed long-standing criticisms about repetitive champion selections in professional play. Initially planned only for the first split and First Stand tournament in Seoul, it's now expected to be implemented across all major regions, MSI, and Worlds 2025.

Key benefits of Fearless Draft:

  • Creates more diverse champion selections
  • Prevents repetitive meta picks
  • Increases viewer excitement
  • Receives support from pros and coaches

G2 coach Dylan Falco has praised the system as "too good for the game" to discontinue, while Hanwha Life's Peanut acknowledged that despite increased difficulty, the format benefits fan experience. While Riot hasn't made an official announcement, the system's success suggests it will likely become a permanent fixture in professional League of Legends.
