Two MSI spots are up for grabs as teams head back to the LCP.
The League of Legends Championship Pacific (LCP) returns on 4 April for Split 2. The first split brought its share of surprises, with new teams stepping up and fan favorites facing tough challenges. In the end, a new champion took the crown.
This next chapter of the LCP is made possible with partners like VNGGames, Carry International, PlayBrain, Arcanist, and Invate. With Split 2 just around the corner, here’s a quick guide to what’s coming up.
NEW START TIME FOR SPLIT 2
Last split, matches started earlier, which helped boost English viewership. But it also meant some fans missed out because of daytime commitments.
For Split 2, matches will start a bit later: 4pm GMT+7, 5pm GMT+8, 6pm GMT+9, and 8pm GMT+11. The goal is to make it easier for more fans across the region to watch live.
