We already know Counter Logic Gaming, G2 Esports and Flash Wolves will make up half of the Mid-Season Invitational Field in Shanghai. This weekend, we find out the other half, with finals for the two biggest League of Legends regions and the Wild Card finals taking place.
IWCI semifinals:
Semifinal 1: No. 2 Hard Random sweeps No. 3 INTZ e-Sports
Semifinal 2: No. 1 SuperMassive eSports sweeps No. 4 Saigon Jokers
IWCI finals: Saturday! At 1 p.m. ET! Turkey's SuperMassive is likely the favorite, but Russia's Hard Random looked like the best team in the tournament for the first three days.
LPL finals: Saturday! At 3 a.m. ET. Royal Never Give Up will face defending MSI champion Edward Gaming for the Chinese crown.
LCK finals: Also Saturday, but starting at 4 a.m. ET. Defending Worlds champions SKT will face off against ROX Tigers, which has looked like the best team in the world this year. Reader Tacit7 has a great FanPost previewing the finals here.
