Now that the LEC 2023 Summer season common cut up is over, right here is the whole lot you want to know to catch up forward of the Teams stage, which can determine the 4 finalists of the LEC Summer season Championship.

LEC 2023 Summer season Teams – Groups and Schedule

Beneath are the eight groups which have certified for the Spring Playoffs (ordered by seeding):

• #1 – G2 Esports
• #2 – Fnatic
• #3 – XL Esports
• #4 – Staff Heretics
• #5 – Staff BDS
• #6 – SK Gaming

The LEC 2023 Summer season Common cut up has been a particular one. We have been capable of witness the rebirth of Fnatic, XL Esports, and Staff Heretics who surprisingly all made it to the highest 4, alongside G2 Esports. All these groups confirmed nice promising performances and rightfully earned their place into Teams stage.

With two of the underside groups from the earlier cut up going into Teams, there are two different squads who have been sure to overlook out on the final a part of the season. Astralis and Staff Vitality have already ended their Summer season Break up, with the previous ending their LEC season early. Regardless of some respectable performances right here and there, Astralis shouldn’t have sufficient championship factors for the LEC Season Finals.

Staff Vitality have a small probability of qualifying for the Season Finals

Vitality, then again, nonetheless have a slim probability to qualify, however even when they have been capable of make it, the group doesn’t appear to be anyplace able to struggle for the title. Jungler Bo was benched previous to the final week of the common cut up and regardless of having rookie jungler Daglas developing from the academy group, Vitality didn’t win in week 3, ending their cut up with a 1-8 scoreboard.

Whereas it’s technically attainable for them to nonetheless qualify for the LEC Season Finals, the percentages are extraordinarily slim. With MAD and G2 already locking a spot and Staff BDS having scored extra championship factors, they would wish a number of situations to align to make it. Most significantly, they would wish to have groups like XL, TH, and FNC to not make it into the highest 3, with MAD, G2, and Staff BDS locking out the highest spots. However given how the groups have carried out, it’s extremely unlikely.

Can MAD repeat Spring once more?

As soon as once more, MAD discover themselves barely scraping into the highest 8. Regardless of an amazing begin, for MAD all of it went downhill rapidly ranging from week 2. Will they handle within the unbelievable run once more? They don’t essentially should, contemplating they already locked a spot on the Season Finals, however it is going to undoubtedly assist to see a step up of their gameplay.

The remainder of the mid-pack has had ups and downs all through the three weeks so it’s actually exhausting to make any prediction. Based mostly on what we’ve seen to date, there are possibilities that apart from G2 and possibly FNC, all the opposite groups have the potential to beat one another relying on how they present up on the day.
