The LEC Playoff Race Heats Up in the Spring Split
The LEC Spring Split is well underway, and as we enter the second half of the season, the playoff picture is starting to take shape. With only three weeks left before the playoffs, the top teams are jockeying for position and every game counts.
The competition in the LEC is fierce, with the top three teams separated by just one game. There’s still a lot of room for movement in the standings, especially since many of the top teams have yet to play each other in rematches.
Power Rankings: Who’s Hot and Who’s Not
Our team of League of Legends experts has put together their rankings for the LEC heading into the final three weeks of the Spring Split. Here’s how the teams stack up:
| Rank | Team | Rank change |
| 1) | Rogue | — |
| 2) | Fnatic | +1 |
| 3) | G2 Esports | -1 |
| 4) | Misfits | +2 |
| 5) | Team Vitality | -1 |
| 6) | Excel Esports | +1 |
| 7) | MAD Lions | -2 |
| 8) | SK Gaming | +1 |
| 9) | Team BDS | -1 |
| 10) | Astralis | — |
Last Chance for SK Gaming, Team BDS, and Astralis
Astralis may have picked up their first win of the season, but they are still at the bottom of our power rankings. However, their recent performance against Rogue showed some signs of life and a never-give-up attitude. While their chances of making it to the playoffs are slim, Astralis is proving that they still have fight left in them.
Team BDS is also struggling in the LEC, with their only wins coming against weaker opponents. The real concern for BDS is their top laner Adam, who has been underperforming compared to his past performances. SK Gaming, on the other hand, has shown some promise and is looking to turn things around.
Crunch Time for Excel Esports and MAD Lions
Excel and MAD Lions find themselves in the middle of the pack with three weeks left to play. Excel had a strong showing in week five, winning both their matches and showing signs of improvement. However, time is running out for them to make a push for a higher playoff seed.
MAD Lions, the defending LEC champions, have had a disappointing split so far. They have struggled to maintain their early leads and have fallen behind in key matches. The clock is ticking for them to turn things around and prove themselves as top contenders.
Risers and Fallers: Misfits and Team Vitality
Misfits and Team Vitality have been the surprise teams of the split. Misfits, led by mid laner Vetheo, have shown impressive teamfighting and decision-making skills. Their strong performances have catapulted them to the top of the standings.
On the other hand, Team Vitality has been inconsistent, with questionable calls and poor objective control. They will need to clean up their gameplay if they want to maintain their position in the playoffs.
The Race for First: Rogue, Fnatic, and G2 Esports
Fnatic has bounced back after a rough start to the season and is closing in on the top spot. Rogue, who had been dominating the league, has shown some weaknesses in recent games. Meanwhile, G2 Esports has remained consistent throughout the split.
The race for first place in the LEC is heating up, with these three teams battling it out for the top seed. Every game from here on out will be crucial in determining who comes out on top.
As we enter the final weeks of the LEC Spring Split, the playoff race is in full swing. Be sure to tune in and catch all the action as these teams fight for a spot in the playoffs and a chance at the title.
