2021 Spring Split Schedule and Format
This year the LEC has decided to keep its format from last year. It is not surprising to see that this was the decision that they came to as it seems like their format worked well for most fans.
The regular split will consist of a best-of-one double round-robin, where all teams will meet each other twice. The regular split is followed up by the playoffs, where the six best teams will compete for the 2021 LEC Spring Split trophy and a spot at the Mid-Season Invitational.
The schedule for the first week of LEC 2021 is as follows:
Friday, January 22nd
Saturday, January 23rd
Sunday, January 24th
Just like the last year, the LEC will run each week from Friday to Sunday during the regular split.

Who won LEC in 2020?
Both the spring and summer splits of the LEC 2020 season were won by G2 Esports. The two LEC finals of 2020 had the exact same outcome, as G2 managed to beat Fnatic 3-0. Will the team repeat it’s previous score in 2021? Fnatic stated that it looks to get its revenge but it will likely be even harder than it was in 2020 since Rekkless moved to G2 to be their ADC for 2021.
