Who will be crowned Spring Split 2024 champion and who will go to MSI?
The regular season of the spring segment for the LPL league has now ended, with the last matches played on Wednesday, March 27, the ninth and final weekend of the championship’s third day of matches. Now it’s time to focus on the next phase of the tournament, the playoffs scheduled from March 31 to April 20.
10 of our teams have qualified for the playoffs, namely Top 2 Bilibili Gaming and Top Esports directly qualify for the 4th round of the tree, as well as JD Gaming and Funplus Phoenix (top 3 and 4, qualify for Round 3), Pajama and LNG Esports. Ninja (top 5 and 6, qualified for Round 2), and finally, Weibo Gaming, Oh My God, Team WE and finally, Invictus Gaming (top 7 to 10). Unfortunately, the Spring Split is over for the rest of the league’s teams, such as LGD Gaming, Royal Never Give Up, and Edward Gaming.
In terms of format, there is no change compared to the 2023 season. The tournament is divided into two stages as follows:
- For the 1st step, from Round 1 to Round 3, this KOTH format has a (double) tree where we will find the teams ranked 3rd to 10th at the end of the regular season; They will be divided into two groups with the first match pitting those who finished the regular season between 7th and 10th place against each other.
- For the 2nd step, from Round 4 to the Finals, is a double elimination bracket that pits the top 2 of the regular season against the two “best” teams from Phase 1 (the two winners of Round 3). With this format, the LPL playoffs will therefore offer a total of 12 best-of-five (BO5) matches.
The grand final winner will be crowned the champion of the LPL Spring Split 2024, and the two finalists will leave with invitations to the next edition of the Mid-Season Invitational which should normally take place in May in China, with the winner qualifying directly. For the main event, and others qualify for play-in. Find the full schedule below:
