Riot has postponed ticket sales for the LCS Championship finals owing to the uncertainty surrounding the Summer Split
This delay in ticket sales comes shortly after Riot Games, the organizing entity, issued the sad news about the Summer Split's postponement.
Ticket sales for the highly anticipated LCS Championship weekend, which was originally scheduled for August 18 and 19 at the historic Prudential Centre in Newark, New Jersey, have been sadly postponed indefinitely today owing to an unanticipated two-week delay in the 2023 LCS Summer Split. As of now, the new dates for the LCS Championship are unknown, leaving fans in the dark about when the exciting event will finally take place. Furthermore, there is still uncertainty about whether the finals will remain on the east coast as planned.
This delay in ticket sales comes shortly after Riot Games, the organizing entity, issued the sad news about the Summer Split's postponement. The key reason for this setback is the inability to negotiate an agreement with the LCS Players Association (LCSPA) on the North American Challengers League (NACL). In reaction, the players stated their intention to boycott the first day of the split, increasing the ambiguity surrounding the intended broadcast content. If the parties concerned do not reach an agreement before the rescheduled start date of June 15, Riot Games has officially indicated that the whole LCS Summer Split will be unfortunately canceled, culminating in the region's disqualification from this season.
Riot Games has taken the commendable step of announcing that those who have already purchased tickets for the first two weeks of the 2023 LCS Summer Split, which is set to take place at the renowned Riot Games Arena, will be eligible for a refund. This act is intended to provide immediate reparation to those affected. However, tickets for the remaining matches leading up to the originally scheduled LCS Championship date are still readily available for purchase by anxious fans.
Currently, the tournament organizers have not provided a timetable for the LCS Championship, which includes both the preliminary rounds and the highly anticipated finals. The lack of information surrounding these critical issues just adds to the frustration and excitement among loyal fans who are looking forward to the show.
