2024 season starts at december?

I mean if we look at this year's calendar, LOCK//IN starts at late february, and LOCK//IN was supposed to be the replacement of the first split masters, if the first split masters starts at late february, that means the regular season need to start at least 2-3 months before that right?

also this year's regular season lasts for like 9 weeks including playoffs with 10 teams playing in it, and next year there's gonna be 11 teams playing in the league, so they need to add at least a week to the schedule, that means they gonna start the league a little early than usual right?

the off season will starts at september through november, and if my assumption is right it'll end at december, I don't think 3 months of off season is that bad tbh

ya that makes sense unless they like change the format for the league

kinda unlikely tbh, if they wanna change something they probably would start changing it when the league will consists of 14 teams which is like 2 years from now

lock//in was the replacement of split 1, not masters 1. the answer isn't starting earlier, it's ending later.

wait if it starts at february doesn't that mean we will have like 4-5 months of off season? isn't that a bit too long?
