Make sure you know the rule of Play-Ins Worlds 2020 before you watch these super exciting matches.
Play-ins Format
The format of the stage is round-robin play, matches will be Bo1. The 2 leading teams of the 2 groups will go straight to the official group stage of Worlds 2020, the last 2 teams of the two groups will be eliminated, and the remaining teams that are ranked 2/3/4 in each group will enter the knockout round to win the remaining 2 tickets to the official group stage of Worlds 2020.
In the Play-ins stage, three teams from three major regions including LGD Gaming (LPL), MAD Lions (LEC), and Team Liquid (LCS) are the top candidates for the official group stage ticket of Worlds 2020. They have superior roster quality compared to other competitors in the play-in round even LGD can top Group B without losing a single game. In the remaining teams, PSG Talon, Unicorn of Love or Papara SuperMassive will most likely compete for the final ticket to the official group stage of Worlds 2020. They all own experienced and competitive players. Stable should have an advantage over the remaining opponents in the warm-up round.
