Meet the updated LCS 2021!
5811Riot Games has already begun preparations for the next League of Legends competitive season. The company has published the rules of the American franchise league LCS 2021, and we have collected for you the most interesting details of the upcoming season.
LCS Lock In is a new format in the LCS league. This is a three-week tournament in which the challenger team will be determined. She needs to be defeated in 2021. As a prize, the winner of the LCS Lock In receives fame, honor and $ 150,000.
In 2021, there are three matches in LCS for us to play. We will watch 5 games every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The regular itself will still be divided into two parts, but the spring and summer split will be combined into the LCS Champioship, which will be held at the end of summer.
Spring split playoffs transformed into LCS Mid-Season Showdown. The winner will earn the title of first LCS champion and the right to defend North America in the Mid-Season Invitational Finals.
