The LCS 2023 season is about to begin, kicking off with the LCS Spring Split on January 26 - and Riot has made a number of changes to the LCS this year.
LCS Spring 2023 schedule and team rosters
The LCS Spring Split will take place from January 26 until March 17, and Riot Games has made some alterations to this year's LCS schedule.
For the 2023 season, the LCS has moved from its traditional Saturday/Sunday timeslot, and will instead take place during the week on Thursday/Friday, beginning at at 2pm PT. The move has been somewhat controversial among professionals and fans alike, with many worrying that the new weekday timeslot will impact viewership numbers.
That's not the only change on the cards this year, however. Starting with the 2023 season, Riot will no longer be hosting the All-Star Events, due to the challenges presented by the 2023 calendar. In its place, Riot hosted the League of Legends Season Kickoff, which took place across all leagues from January 10-11.
Despite these changes, the format for the 2023 season has stayed largely the same. The LCS 2023 Spring Split will feature Double Round Robin matches, taking place across eight weeks of regular reason play - with two three-day Super Weeks.
The Super Weeks will see each team in the league playing more matches than typical weeks, playing three days instead of the typical two days per week. The first Super Week beginning on February 15, while the second begins on March 15.
The playoff format also remains unchanged from last year. The ten teams competing in the LCS Spring Split will be fighting for a share of the $200,000 prize pool - with the top two teams receiving an invitation to the 2023 Mid-Season Invitational.
