Long before Korean imports and international superstars dominated the scene, TSM and CLG were the two giants of North American League of Legends. Their battles during the early LCS seasons defined what NA competitive play looked like. Every series felt like a championship, every game felt like the last.
The two orgs pushed each other harder than any other matchup on the continent, across multiple splits, playoff runs, and international stages. For fans who watched from the beginning, TSM vs CLG wasn't just a match — it was NA's heartbeat.
Compare that era to recent history: from LYON's LCS Spring 2026 championship run to the tense playoff bracket that preceded it — the scene has evolved massively. But TSM vs CLG is where it all started 🏆.
The LCS Classic is a special exhibition event tied to the LCS Summer Split Opening Week. Legendary former players from both orgs return to Summoner's Rift for a nostalgic format designed to celebrate North American LoL history.
