Worlds Draw Show[edit]

The Worlds Draw Show held on September 23, 2018 - 21:00 KST was the process by which teams are placed into groups for the Play-In Stage and the Group Stage of the 2018 World Championship.

Click here for more details on the draw process.

Play-In Draw[edit]

  • Pools
    • Twelve teams have been placed into three Draw Pools based on past regional performance over the last two years of international competition.
      • Recent results prioritised over older results and regions were evaluated on tournament results by the stage achieved, regardless of opponent or game record.
      • Pool 1: Third seeds from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau (LMS), Europe (EU LCS), China (LPL) and North America (NA LCS).
      • Pool 2: First seeds from Turkey (TCL), Brazil (CBLOL), Latin America North (LLN) and Commonwealth of Independent States (LCL).
      • Pool 3: First seeds from Japan (LJL), Oceania (OPL), Latin America South (LAS) and Southeast Asia (SEA Tour)
  • Rules
    • Each group must have exactly one team from Pool 1, one team from Pool 2 and one team from Pool 3.
  • Procedure
    • All four teams from Pool 1 into different groups followed by drawing one team from Pool 2 into each group and finally one team from Pool 3 into each group.

Group Stage Draw[edit]

  • Pools
    • Twelve teams have been placed into two Draw Pools based on past regional performance over the last two years of international competition.
      • Pool 1: First seeds from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau (LMS), Europe (EU LCS), China (LPL) and Korea (LCK).
      • Pool 2: First seeds from North America (NA LCS) and Vietnam (VCS); second seeds from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau (LMS), Europe (EU LCS), China (LPL), North America (LPL) and Korea (LCK); and third seed from Korea (LCK).
      • Pool 3: Four qualifying teams from Play-In.
  • Rules
    • No group can have more than one team from the same region. So, for example, first seed from China and second seed from China cannot inhabit the same group.
    • Each group must have exactly one team from Pool 1, two teams from Pool 2 and one team that qualifies from the Play-In Stage.
  • Procedure
    • The draw begins with the seeds physically separated into two bowls by Pool. The groups are arranged in alphabetical order from left to right.
    • First, all of the seeds from Pool 1 are drawn randomly and then Pool 2. The Play-In teams will be drawn into the already existing groups after the final Play-In: Round 2 game on October 7.
    • When a seed is drawn, it is placed into the next group available in alphabetical order so long as that would not render the draw invalid at any future point by preventing another seed from being placed in a valid spot.
    • In Pool 2, each group must have one Pool 2 seed before any group has two Pool 2 seeds, unless doing so would create an invalid draw.
  • Invalid Draws
    • Because seeds are drawn randomly and there are several rules governing where those seeds can go, there are a few situations we can run into in which a draw cannot be completed, rendering the draw “invalid”.
    • The draw is monitored as it proceeds and use a series of logical checks to identify when placement of a specific team would create an invalid draw down the road. If that happens, the team moves to the first available placement that would avoid the invalid draw.
