Rogue Secures First Place in LEC Summer Split
Rogue has claimed the top spot in the 2021 LEC Summer Split standings, solidifying their position as the leading team in European League of Legends. In a dominating performance against SK Gaming, Rogue showcased their skills and strategy, securing their place at the apex of the league.
Consistent Success for Rogue
This is the second time in the last two years that Rogue has finished in first place in the regular season, with a remarkable 13-5 record in the 2020 Summer Split. However, their focus is on breaking the pattern they’ve established in the playoffs, particularly after their loss against MAD Lions in last season’s finals. Rogue is determined to make a strong showing in the playoffs this year and assert their dominance in the European League of Legends scene.
Impressive Stats and Stellar Players
Throughout the summer heat, Rogue maintained their composure and delivered exceptional performances. They boasted the highest team KDA and the greatest average gold difference at 15 minutes in the LEC, as reported by Oracle’s Elixir. Key players such as Hans Sama, Inspired, and Larssen displayed impressive KDA’s and over 100 assists each. Although their damage numbers may not be astounding, Rogue’s coordinated team play and decision-making propelled them to the top of the standings.
Playoff Prospects and Road to the World Championship
By securing first place, Rogue now has the advantage of choosing to face either G2 Esports or Misfits Gaming in the first round of the playoffs. The decision is yet to be made, but whichever matchup they choose, it promises to be an intense and thrilling series for fans to enjoy. Additionally, with their first-place finish, Rogue is just one best-of-five win away from qualifying for this year’s World Championship, further solidifying their status as one of Europe’s top teams.
