Rift Rivals Red welcomes a new member this summer as Vietnam joins China and South Korea in a region-vs-region battle for bragging rights.<\/p>\n

This year’s Asian tournament, which is scheduled for July 4-7 in Seoul, is the first to feature teams from four regions.<\/p>\n

The new addition means a different format compared to last year, when LCK, LPL and LMS teams competed against each other.<\/p>\n

Group stage matchups will be decided by results in the Spring Split, with teams of the same seeding to face one another.<\/p>\n

For example: SKT, who finished first in LCK, will play IG, who finished first in LPL.<\/p>\n

All of the matches in the group stage will be played in a single round robin, Bo1 format. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The top region at the end of the group games will then advance directly into the finals, while the second- and third-placed regions get another shot at glory in the semi-finals. <\/p>\n

In the semis, teams will face off in a Bo5 relay with the matchups determined by the coaches from both sides. <\/p>\n

The winner of the semi-finals will then take on the first-placed region from group stages in another Bo5 relay.<\/p>\n

The teams competing in the tournament are as follows:<\/p>\n

LCK – SKT T1, Griffin, Kingzone DragonX, DAMWON Gaming
\nLPL – Invictus Gaming, JD Gaming, FunPlus Phoenix, Topsports Gaming
\nLMS – Flash Wolves, MAD Team
\nVCS – Phong Vu Buffalo, EVOS Esports<\/p>\n

Seeing how VCS and LMS both come into Rift Rivals with only two teams, the two regions will merge to form a single region for the sake of the tournament.<\/p>\n

Vietnam’s inclusion comes off the back of some impressive results at international level.<\/p>\n

The region has also brought a completely new playstyle to the top tier of League of Legends esports<\/a>, combining extreme aggression with unique strategies.<\/p>\n

Phong Vu Buffalo mad a big statement at the 2019 Mid-Season Invitational when they beat G2 Esports, the MSI champions, twice in the group stage.<\/p>\n
