The Mid-Season Invitational 2021 will soon be upon us and we now know the teams that have booked their slot so far.
We are less than a month away from the upcoming MSI 2021 in Reykjavík, Iceland, slated to begin on the 6th to the 23rd of May. As it stands, six of the 12 teams have already finished with their regional tournaments and have secured their slots in the group stages.
Here is how it looks:
We will be updating the article as we get closer to the event and when more teams finalise their slots for MSI 2021. Here are the teams that have qualified so far.
- Cloud 9 (LCS Spring 2021 – North America)
- DWG.KIA (LCK Spring 2021 – Korea)
- MAD Lions (LEC Spring 2021 – Europe)
- Infinity Esports (LLA Opening 2021 – Latin America)
- DetonatioN FocusMe (LJL Spring 2021 – Japan)
- Pentanet.GG (LCO Split 1 2021 – Oceania)
While some of the names on this list were expected to make the grade, there were some others that may surprise you. One of them is MAD Lions, who managed to overcome all odds and take the title as well as the MSI 2021 slot for the EU region. This is also the first time that the representative from the EU region is neither G2 Esports nor Fnatic.
The LEC Spring Split 2021 was full of surprises with Martin “Rekkles” Larsson of G2 Esports taking home the tournament MVP for the fourth time in a row. Sadly, it still wasn’t enough for them to make the cut as they lost to Rogue in the loser bracket finals.
Group A | Group B | Group C |
LPL | LEC (MAD Lions) | LCK (DWG.KIA) |
VCS | PCS | LCS (Cloud 9) |
LCL | TCL | LLA (Infinity Esports) |
LCO (Pentanet.GG) | CBLOL | LJL (DetonatioN FocusMe) |
So far, only Group C has been finalised with all four teams already making it through. Group A and B will be interesting to look out for, considering most of it is already in the grand finals or awaiting their opponents.
We are still waiting on six more regional tournaments to finish, which should be happening this coming weekend. Be sure to watch this space as we will be updating in the days to come!
