The final eight players will play matches until one contestant has earned three wins. No settling for 4th place here!

This will probably be fun to watch. Nuts that these people are getting paid thousands for showing up. The life in the light of fame, haha. It will do great things for their stream numbers.

Why do Watch Rewards not just stick to the established lolesports.com Rewards page? It's already using YouTube. Now we have to explicitly access a different YouTube channel to get rewards instead of using https://watch.lolesports.com/rewards ? Or will this also be provided directly on the Rewards page, and this is just an alternate option because of how unreliable the Rewards credit has been for people?

I really hope Riot keeps doing events like this. Lately they've been doing tons of amazing things that the community has been wanting and I hope they keep it up.

Why no K3soju? Not enough viewers? Being 2nd on the ladder and a regular streamer isn't enough?

Will these new champs be added to the roaster to a point where there will be a type of rotate between play sets like having Glacial one week then Steel or Mountain next week for casual or even ranked gameplay?

In before 17 games are needed for day 2 meaning it will be a 12-13 hour long day of TFT

Would love to see K3Sojuu in the competition, he's such a enjoyable streamer to watch
