League of Legends MSI (Mid Season Invitational) 2023, the first international tournament of the year, is set to start in about two weeks' time. Teams worldwide are busy preparing for the event as they look to walk home with the prestigious trophy. But first, teams will want to know more about their opponents, and this Sunday, April 23, 2023, the Draw Show for the MSI 2023 will be announced.
Riot Games has announced that the MSI 2023 Draw Show will take place right after the LEC 2023 Spring Split finals. Read on for more details.
