The intense competition of the League of Legends Challenger Circuit playoffs kicked off this past Monday, August 18. Teams battled in a best-of-three format, fighting for every win. The stakes were high right from the start.
In the first set of matches, RED Canids Academy proved too strong for IDL, securing a clear victory. Not long after, Alpha7 also showed their skill, overcoming Corinthians e-sports. These wins were huge for both RED Canids Academy and Alpha7. They earned themselves a coveted spot in the tournament’s upper bracket.
For IDL and Corinthians e-sports, the journey continues, but on a tougher path. They now find themselves in the lower bracket of the Challenger Circuit. This means they get a second chance to fight their way back, but it will be a much harder climb.
Tomorrow, Tuesday, August 19, is another big day for the tournament. More matches will happen, and they will decide who joins the winners in the upper bracket and who falls to the lower bracket alongside IDL and Corinthians e-sports.
