Our teams are ready to hit the Summoners Rift, fighting for a top-two seed to compete in the PCS playoffs–their chance at Worlds in South Korea. With the journey through playoffs underway, which teams will succeed?
- The Chiefs and Team Bliss have secured PCS playoffs slots
- Team Bliss have the edge from their last series, which ended 3-0
- Last series of the split July 30th @ 6pm
Our last series of the season is finally here. Recreating the matchup at DreamHack earlier this year, Team Bliss and The Chiefs have once again secured the two PCS playoffs slots, and meet in contention for the Oceanic title.
There’s no live audience this time around, with players competing in the finals remotely as they have for the remainder of the split, however numerous watch parties will be taking place for fans to rejoice in the action together, such as the official one at Fortress Sydney and even the LCO finalist’s base, Bliss HQ.
Talent will be broadcasting live from the studio, ready for tonight’s best-of-five series.
With everything building up to this split’s crescendo, the LCO All-Pro Team voted by both experts and fans is Team Bliss verbatim.
The last iteration of the Brisbane Brawl saw Bliss 3-0 against The Chiefs to qualify for the Grand Finals. The Chiefs bounced back in the lower bracket finals against Mammoth, securing a perfect series of their own, carrying that momentum into the final LCO clash of the split.
Bliss have continued to push the precipice of an unprecedented debut.
The Chiefs aim to secure their legacy with their potential third LCO championship title in a row.
For both of these teams, the trophy is just out of reach now–but only one can be crowned the champion.
We’re covering everything LCO Split 2; streams, schedule, rosters, and more.

LCO Split 2 2023 Schedule & Results
There have been some major changes to the format of the LCO ahead of Split 2 this June. The round-robin stage will be played in best-of-twos as opposed to the former two separate best-of-one matches.
Points will be allocated depending on the results, with three awarded for a victorious flawless series, and one point to each team for a 1-1 outcome. Side selections will be submitted from both teams prior to the beginning of a series.
By the end of the round-robin, the top six teams will move into the next stage.

Rather than seeding into groups, the LCO has opted in favour of a double elimination playoffs bracket to give all teams a fighting chance. All series in the playoffs are played out in a Bo3 format.
The top two teams in our LCO playoffs will seed respectively for PCS playoffs, where they’ll be competing for a shot at Worlds in South Korea in October.
