Tomorrow we will see the Play-In stage of the Champions Southeast Asia 2022 Finals kick off, with a full three-days of League of Legends: Wild Rift action.
Riot Games’ flagship mobile title, League of Legends: Wild Rift, has been creating a stir for some time, with players from around the world finding their way onto Summoners Rift in a portable format. With that, we have seen a blossoming esports scene begin to emerge for the game, with tournaments happening on a global scale. However, this weekend, the top teams from the recent Champions SEA 2022 event will be fighting as they go in search of becoming the best of the region.
Before the main event kicks off, we will see the Play-In stage, which will feature the teams which placed second from a few regions, as well as the first-place team from Oceania, all fighting for the two remaining spots in the main event. The Play-Ins will see the five total teams playing in a single round robin, where the first placed team will automatically move into the main event, while second and third will need to fight it out for the final spot.
