The first international competition of the 2023 League of Legends season is about to kick off at the Copper Box Arena in London. On May 2, the first four teams will clash in best-of-three double-elimination matches, as per the new MSI format implemented this year.
Of the 13 invited teams, eight will go through the play-in stage, where they have been divided into two best-of-three, double-elimination brackets. While the two top teams of each bracket will qualify for the next stage, the winning teams of their respective loser brackets will have to face off in a best-of-five series, with the winner advancing to the bracket stage and the loser being eliminated.
Here are the scores, standings, and results for the group stage at MSI 2023.
