Regional qualifier

edit

The regional qualifier was a tournament consisting of the top four teams in the LCK based on championship points that had not directly qualified for the 2022 World Championship. The top two teams faced off, and the winner earned a spot in the World Championship. Simultaneously, the bottom two teams played against each other, with the losing team being eliminated. The remaining two teams then competed for the last LCK spot in the 2022 World Championship.[9]
