The main stage of League of Legends MSI 2023, the year’s first significant international competition is here.
Fans anticipate intense matchups as the qualifying teams begin to battle in the bracket round.
Following the last play-in game between the Golden Guardians and PSG Talon, the bracket stage draw was conducted.
The bracket stage matchups were drawn by the primary guest and top laner from Excel Esports, Andrei “Odoamne” Pascu.
Yet, since fans are upset with the MSI 2023 bracket stage matches, he has become the subject of a lot of trolls.
On May 9, 2023, in London, England, the League of Legends MSI 2023 bracket stage will start.
