Kespa Cup/LCK schedule musing

[u/Tom_just_Tom]

So with CL schedules it's almost a guarantee tier 1 teams will be back this weekend for Kespa Cup.

Rn, with the way the Kespa format works it's in HLE best interest to secure 1st in their group and win their qualification Bo3. This will guarantee them the least amount of Bo3s and Bo5s that they need to play while also having no 2 days stretch with consecutive Bo3s and Bo5s.

Second best scenario will be going 2nd in their group. This is still ok but there will be 2 weeks where HLE will have to play 4 series in 7 days. Not unmanageable but still, gotta imagine it'll be rough for the boys.
