ასLatest Split spring 2022 Georgia LFL It’s getting closer and as always, everyone needs a place in the final. If the Oplon team has already been left out of the race (0 wins, 14 losses), other teams can still create a surprise (GameWard, GamersOrigin See Mirage Elyandra). The fight is heating up and we can’t wait for the season to end. call back, join Playoffs Allows you to play the title but also to win an attribute European MastersA kind of Europa League of League of Legends.
But beware, the LFL playoffs have changed from last year. In order not to get completely lost, you can watch the video. Come Or read our little game on the 5 differences!
We go to 5 to 6 participants
This year, the LFL playoffs will take place before 6v5. For some, that’s just a minor detail, but this change has big implications. On the one hand, it’s more acceptable for teams that are struggling a bit in the regular season because there is extra space. In the summer of 2021, a team like Team BDS can join the party despite the “average” segment (8-10).
Additionally, having 6 teams gives a bit more flexibility and choice in terms of the general format of the competition.
Create a double elimination brace
Last year, compared to the regular season, each defeat in the playoffs, whether in the round or at the start of the game, was synonymous with elimination. This is no longer the case today and the LFL was the first to nail it. double elimination It’s a little closer to what was done at the LEC. be careful winning nail This is really small as it only applies to the top two teams in the segment. The winner of the duel above advances to the Grand Finals, where the loser will have a second chance to come back in Round 3. Loose bracket.
We can see the team that lost against Bo5 as champions of France after a small comeback. For tell a story, that would be great. On the other hand, each defeat will be fatal to the teams classified 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th.
More matches to watch
This difference sinks a bit as the participants increase and we move into the double elimination bracket. Logically and to the satisfaction of the public, there will still be a few games during the playoffs. We do not know if the players are happy, but next to the supporters, this little rabbi will make people happy.
Playoffs dwindled last year 4 Bo5. it will be this year 6. Space is not left out, but it will still allow us to see a more beautiful game.
LFL is compatible with other ERLs
The French League of Legends didn’t change the playoff system just for fun. Riot Games had a purpose Standardization All BRE To provide smoother gameplay to the community. The system we have in the LFL is the same as the Premier League (Germany) or the LVP (Spain).
For fun, we looked at what was done in the European regional leagues last year and we found everything. During the qualifiers in Poland, we played in the double elimination system, where the top 3 teams are allowed to make a mistake. In the playoffs in Spain, we played 6 with an elimination group, but with a certain number of opponents. Finally in Germany the playoffs were also played with 6 players, but with a mixing board in hybrid format and king of the hill… In short, everything is on the same wavelength now.
New Championship Points
A. also proposed a new playoff format New Championship Points. Unfortunately, we do not have a doctorate in mathematics and it is difficult to fully understand the essence of this change. But we can clearly see that there is a generalized inflation of points and that there is a gap between 9th and 10th places this year, which definitely forces everyone to fight until the end.
there was a void 80 dots (130-50) between the first unqualified team and the champion. difference now 150 dots (180-30). So the teams are really interested in being there for the playoffs.
