The LCS is looking to be a banger.
However, 100 Thieves isn’t the only team to make some radical roster changes during the off-season.
But we’ll get to all that in just a bit.
With that change, all 10 teams participating in the LCS will play one another every Thursday and Friday.
This will go on for eight weeks with the double-elimination playoff bracket to come after that.
But first, they have to determine which of the top six will make it there.
Each team will play 18 matches in a best-of-one series to determine who goes to the playoffs.
From there, it will be an all-out battle with all matches being a best-of-five.
And to kickstart the spring split, the LCS puts both 100 Thieves andCloud9to debut the new season.
They will go up against the reigning champions, followed byGolden GuardiansandEvil Geniuses.
Both teams have made personnel changes during the off-season with the former bringing in key imports for its rebuild.
FlyQuestandTeam Liquidfollow right after with both teams raiding the LCK for their recruits.
A bigger question will be if Pyosik can adapt to the LCS' meta and style of play.
Of course, mountains are there to be climbed, which can also be said for EG.
And through the skin of their teeth, they managed to make their MSI and Worlds debut last year.
Having already set the bar high, EG will be looking to get there once again.
The LCS 2023 Spring Split starts later today at 6.00 am UTC+8, only on the officialLCS Twitch channel.
