On Saturday March 20th and Sunday March 21st. The first two best of fives were played for the Mid-Season Showdown also known as the Spring Playoffs. TSM lost on Saturday to Team Liquid with a score of 3 games to 1. Cloud 9 on Sunday swept 100 Thieves 3 games to 0. If you are a TSM or 100 Thieves fan do not panic yet. The two teams still have a shot to make a run through the loser’s bracket. While unlikely the miracle has happened before when last summer TSM made the run all the way through the loser’s bracket to win the LCS championship. This Saturday TSM will face Evil Geniuses and on Sunday 100 Thieves will face Team Dignitas. The losers of these matchups will be eliminated whereas the winners will face each other. The following week in the winner’s bracket Cloud 9 will play Team Liquid and the winner will have their seat in the finals. The loser will face the last remaining team in the loser’s bracket. Finally, the winner of this matchup will be the other team in the finals. The winner of the Spring Playoffs will go on to the Mid-Season Invitational to compete against the other teams that won their own regions including Europe, China, Korea, North America, Vietnam and more!
