LCO 2022 Split 2: Second split of the year to kick off; stakes raised as ticket to Mexico City’s Worlds up for grabs

LCO 2022 Split 2, and the league’s competitors see sweeping changes as OCE’s best line up for a spot at Worlds. Who will be crowned as the LCO champions and represent the region at the pinnacle of League of Legends?

• Split 2 begins July 6 @ 6pm AEST
• Roster changes aplenty as each squad gears up for the new split
• Favourites Chiefs look to go one better after Split 1 final loss to Order

It’s Split 2 time.

The LCO returns Monday, June 6 for the second season of 2022, and as always, the stakes are raised even higher in the back half of the calendar year.

While Order claimed the Split 1 championship in April, and thus the spot at the Mid-Season Invitational in South Korea, the winner of Split 2 takes home much more than the OCE crown.

LCO’s next champion title comes with the honour of representing the region at Riot Games’ Worlds 2022 — LoL’s premier tournament — set to take place across North America later this year, with the grand final to take place in Mexico City.

It’s a long way to the Worlds trophy for our OCE reps, who first must navigate a brand new LCO landscape.

The Chiefs enter Split 2 as favourites as they did in Split 1, but will they go one better than April’s final and claim that Worlds Play-In spot? Can Order back up their Split 1 victory and go back-to-back for international representation?

Will we see the likes of former international reps Pentanet or Peace back overseas again? Is it time for a new name to take up the LCO mantle?

Split 2 sees widespread changes to our LCO crews.

MSI representatives Order saw a change in the jungle following Shane “Kevy” Allen’s departure to North America, picking up Jeong “Goodo” Min-jae from Dire Wolves.

While Kevy departs, Vincent “Violet” Wong returns from Golden Guardians Academy and will take up the starting bot lane position at Peace alongside the squad’s former coach Vincent “gunkrab” Lin.

Other teams saw a mixed bag of changes; Dire Wolves will feature four new members of the Wolf Pack, while Pentanet will start Split 2 exactly as they ended.
