Play-In Schedule Change for MSI 2019
The Play-In Stage schedule has been compressed.
Out of respect to the host nation of Vietnam, the schedule for the Mid-Season Invitational will be modified for the Play-In Stage. From May 3rd to May 4th the entire nation of Vietnam will be in a formal mourning period to pay respects to the former Prime Minister of the nation who recently passed. In accordance with the local customs, entertainment focused events and broadcasts will be put on hold. The Mid-Season Invitational will modify the tournament schedule to adhere to local customs. Below is the new schedule that will be in effect for the Play-In stage taking place in Ho-Chi Minh City. These changes will be reflected on the schedule posted on watch.lolesports.com in the near future.
