LEC 2024 Summer: Format
Like previous years, the LEC plays through three different splits over the year, including the Winter Split in January, which was won by G2 Esports, Spring Split, and Summer Split.
For 2024, the LEC Summer Split is split into two phases: the Regular Season and the Bracket Stage/Playoffs. Unlike other professional regional leagues such as the LCK, LPL, CBLOL, and LCS, the LEC does not feature a Group Stage.
Regular Season: June 8 - 30
- Played as a single-round robin format
- Each team played nine matches, one match for each team
- All matches are played best-of-one (Bo1)
- The top eight teams advance to the Playoffs; the remaining two teams are eliminated
Playoffs: July 12 - 30
- After a short week-long mid-season break, the top eight from the Regular Season will compete in a double-elimination bracket
- Round 1 and Round 2 matches are played Bo3
- All other matches are Bo5, including the Quarterfinals and Semifinals
- The winner qualifies for LoL Worlds 2024
- The top three also secure a spot at the LEC Finals, aka EMEA Masters

The Mid-Season Invitational in May showed the world that European squads can go toe-to-toe with the giants, with G2 Esports triumphing over LPL's second seed, Top Esports, in a clean 3-0 sweep.
