The regular season finally came to a close.
At the Round 38 post-match press conferences, the teams that managed to get into the playoffs were asked questions on how they planned to face the playoffs. Each team's response was rather reserved, at most expressing their determination. No one expanded on it too much.
The first round of the playoffs was set to beginning on June 14, the start of the new week. The playoffs would open with Samsara versus Hundred Blossoms. After resting for a mere eight days, the two teams would once again meet on the battlefield.
Eight days, no team would really spend these eight days resting and relaxing.
After confirming their opponents for the first round, each team entered a high tension state of preparations. It wasn't just the teams that grew busier. The Alliance, the media, and sponsors were all rushing to make arrangements for this season's climax.
