LEC Finals 2023 highlights
LEC Finals 2023 is the first tournament of its kind. Riot Games has introduced to the competition ecosystem with the announcement of the renewed infrastructure of the MENA region and LEC in particular.
The championship takes place in the French city of Montpellier in August 2023. The participants include the top 6 teams of the region based on the results of the annual games of the LEC series tournaments: LEC Winter, LEC Spring, LEC Summer.
The LEC Finals 2023 will be attended by all the champions of the 3 splits, as well as the 3 leaders of the Championship Points table. The first participant of the final tournament in the European region was G2 Esports, who won the LEC WInter 2023. If one team wins two or more splits, its place will go to the next team which didn't qualify for the tournament before.
The distribution of the participants is based on the position of the teams in the Championship Points table. The specific tournaments won do not play a role.
The LEC Finals 2023 will offer $160,000, twice the prize money of the individual splits (Spring, Winter, Summer). The top prize, however, is a trip to the Worlds 2023.
There will be 3 teams from Europe at once in the Worlds 2023. The 3 teams will go to the LEC Finals and the 4th place team from the Regional Finals will get the chance to go to Worlds 2023 after qualifying through the Worlds Qualifying Series.
