A day after a pair of teams completed perfect runs through the first phase of the League of Legends Championship of The Americas North in Los Angeles, Cloud9 followed suit Sunday, beating Team Liquid to advance to the upper bracket of the playoffs.

It was not a complete loss for Liquid, however, as despite a 1-2 record the club got the fourth and final slot in the upper bracket.

The LTA North 2025 Split 3 is the third Americas North League of Legends split under the LTA banner, with eight Americas North teams competing for the Americas title.

The first three weeks were single-match formats and ended on Sunday.

Elimination matches take place in Weeks 4-5, with the matches each best-of-five. Weeks 6-7 are a double-elimination format and also best-of-five. The top three teams qualify for the LTA Championship, and the winner qualifies for the 2025 World Championship.

Cloud9 opened Sunday with a pair of 33-minute wins, the first on blue and the second on red. Park “Thanatos” Seung-gyu of South Korea led the winners with a combined 10/5/21 kill-death-assist ratio in the two maps.

In the second match, Disguised got by Dignitas 2-1 in a matchup of teams headed to the lower bracket of the playoffs and who each began the day 0-2. In a back-and-forth match, Disguised took the first map in 35 minutes on red before Dignitas evened up the match in 30 minutes on blue. Disguised took the winner-take-all final map in 35 minutes on blue to earn their first win. Choi “huhi” Jae-hyun of South Korea and the United States led Disguised with a combined 0/8/43 K-D-A

The upper bracket semifinals will take place next weekend — Week 4 — with Cloud9 playing Shopify Rebellion in a battle of 2-0 teams on Saturday, and FlyQuest playing Liquid on Sunday. Winners will advance to the upper bracket final in Week 6 while losers will go to the lower bracket quarterfinals, also in Week 6.

Week 5 will be the lower bracket’s Round 1, with Disguised against Dignitas on Aug. 23, and LYON versus 100 Thieves on Aug. 24 in best-of-five matches.
