After 50 games across eight electric days in New York, the group stage of the League of Legends World Championship has come to a close. Following the conclusion of groups, the initial matchups for the next stage of the tournament—the knockout stage—were drawn at random.
In the group stage, T1, JD Gaming, DRX, and Gen.G earned the top seeds out of their respective groups, ensuring they would face a team that finished second in groups in the first round of the knockout stage. Those second seeds from the group stage were Edward Gaming, DWG KIA, Rogue, and Royal Never Give Up. Three of the four groups required a tiebreaker to settle who would emerge as the number one seed.
