On December 31, Beijing time, LPL officially announced the regular season schedule of the 2022 Spring Tournament, and the Spring Tournament will continue to adopt the previous "no group, single round robin, BO3" format, starting from January 10 and ending on March 20, a total of nine weeks!
After the previous announcement of the spring match on January 10, everyone also made speculation about the opening match, some people speculated that there would be a grudge between EDG and RNG, some felt that it was a top collision between EDG and TES, and even some people expected the head-to-head confrontation between RNG and BRG, after all, Uzi was full of old clubs. However, after seeing the schedule, everyone was disappointed in the arrangement of the opening match, and the opening battle will be started by OMG and TT, which I am afraid no one can imagine.
As a former dark force, OMG has a vague rise in the previous summer games, and it is understandable to arrange it in the opener. It's just that the TT team, whether it is the foundation or the overall strength of the team, is slightly insufficient, and they have become a team involved in the opening battle, which is really surprising. Of course, the official arrangement can also be understood, after all, the opening day is Monday, and the general wonderful matches will be scheduled on the weekend, so it is reasonable to put the highlights in the back.
There are many strong duels in the new season, but there are a few focus battles that should not be missed, namely:
January 27 RNG vs BLG
The last game before the New Year is the focus of RNG and BLG, and with the complete reconstruction of IG, the Spring Festival Gala Battle between RNG and IG is naturally much less to watch. The game between BRG and RNG will be different because of Uzi, Uzi returned in BLG after more than a year of retirement, and then faced the old club RNG, I don't know if RNG will adopt the tactics of second-level capture. And how Uzi will play against RNG, these are the places that everyone is looking forward to!
February 13 IG vs V5
Rookie, the former IG's team soul, joined V5 during the transfer period, and this time will also be the first time Rookie has faced his old club, and with the help of strong reinforcements such as Karsa, V5 is expected to rise in the new season. In the face of the rebuilt IG, the biggest attraction is the performance of Rookie herself.
February 26 TES vs EDG
TES has made great moves in the offseason, continuously introducing strong players such as Zoom, Xiaotian and Xiaopeng, and the Ueno position has ushered in reinforcements. Coupled with the sailor combination, TES looks impeccable at every position, and what the Galactic battleship will play depends on the chemistry between the group. S11 champion EDG is the same, maintaining the original team of people is naturally the defender, and TES is the most powerful challenger, these two teams are also miller teacher's latest rating of S+ teams.
March 5 EDG vs RNG
With Uzi's comeback in the BRG team, this also declares that the "Pig-Dog War" has become history completely, but the feud between RNG and EDG is still full of highlights. The two teams met in the quarter-finals of the S10 World Championship, with EDG fighting five innings to eliminate RNG, this time RNG definitely wants revenge, and EDG, which maintains the championship lineup, will also go all out to win. The little tiger returned to the middle road, and there was a strong addition of Ah Bin on the road, can the reinforced RNG achieve revenge?
