Since the LCS Players' Association made the choice to object to Riot Games' recent decisions regarding the region's tier-two environment, the competitive League of Legends community in North America has been humming. To compete for a regional trophy and the opportunity to represent their country at the 2023 World Championship in South Korea, all 10 teams are now ready for another ferocious season. But to make up for the missing days due to the walkout and the postponement, the LCS will be held on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays for the following six weeks. Players will thus be challenged to the maximum, and only the top teams will advance to the playoffs for NA's frenzied ascent to the summit.
Here are the teams that have already earned a place in the 2023 LCS Championship bracket. Topping the list is Cloud9 (11-4), followed by Golden Guardians (10-5), Evil Geniuses (9-6), Team Liquid (9-6), NRG Esports (8-7), and TSM (8-7).
