LCS 2018 Spring Split playoff semifinal: schedule, results, and more

The penultimate week of the Spring Split is here, as the final four teams in both main leagues face off to see who will meet in the Finals.

In Europe, the two matches are almost too close to call. G2 is likely the favorite to pull through in their match against Splyce, but Splyce has already spent all of 2018 proving they’re full of surprises. Meanwhile, Fnatic will be playing without their starting top laner, helping move Team Vitality from slight underdogs to possible favorites.

While, Europe’s match-ups make sense based on their regular season, North America is still reeling from last week’s massive upset of TSM at the hands of Clutch Gaming. Suddenly, their match against 100 Thieves seems like it could be completely up in the air, thanks to the potential for incredible performances out of Clutch’s jungler Nam “Lira” Taeyou and support “Nickolas “Hakuho” Sugent.

All playoff matches will be best of five series, and will be shown live on Riot Games’ Twitch channel and YouTube channel, as well as on lolesports.com.
