After two months of action, we finally know which six teams will enter the LCS Summer Split<\/a> playoffs and continue fighting for a ticket to the LoL World Championship.<\/p>\n

With countless close-fought battles, upset wins and exciting matches, the tournament has lived up to its billing as one of the most exciting Leagues of Legends esports<\/a> events in the world.<\/p>\n

Let’s look at how our finalists performed throughout the season and their chances going forward, along with the latest LoL odds from the best esports betting sites<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Team Liquid<\/h2>\n

It would be hard to imagine the LCS playoffs without Team Liquid, who secured their ticket only seven weeks into the summer split.<\/p>\n

Liquid did not have the best start, suffering two defeats in the opening fortnight, but they took off in week three and never looked back. <\/p>\n

TL finished top of the LCS Summer Split ladder with a dominant 14-4 record to progress straight to the semi-finals, where they will choose which of the quarter-final winners they wish to face.<\/p>\n

Cloud9<\/h2>\n

Joining Team Liquid in the semi-finals are Cloud9, who stayed in the top three throughout the whole split despite some shaky patches.<\/p>\n

As one of the elite three teams in North America, C9 enter every event with high expectations. The upcoming playoffs are no exception.<\/p>\n

Led by a team of experienced players and coaches, they will look to make the most of their first appearance in the playoffs since the 2018 LCS Summer Split.<\/p>\n

Counter Logic Gaming<\/p>\n

\n

CLG’s return to the North American elite has come as a welcome surprise as they look to reach their first semi-finals since the summer of 2017.<\/p>\n

Whether their run to the playoffs is a fluke or a sign of future greatness will be answered in detail on August 10, when they take on OpTic Gaming in the quarter-finals.<\/p>\n

Online bookmakers seem to agree that Counter Logic (-250) are the favourites to defeat OpTic (+175), which is more than fair when you consider CLG’s super form towards the end of the split.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
