One of my friends just reminded me they haven’t played it the whole of the 2023 season, is this the first time a tier 1 team has done this?

Yeah pretty sure, there was a chance they could've been forced to play it if they made a deeper run at champs.
"deeper run as in if they made the grand finals from the lower bracket*

wym deeper run? they made fourth place, how deeper do you want them to go. They just lost to teams that were better than them. Now Team Liquid is a team that needs to make deeper runs in tournaments.

sorry i didnt explain it properly.

If fnatic made the grandfinals from the lower bracket they would've been forced to play a bo5 without any map bans.
With PRX being the team with the bans its almost guaranteed they would've played pearl.
