LEC Winter 2024: Power Rankings Shake Up After Opening Week
Following a thrilling first week in the League of Legends EMEA Championship (LEC), clear patterns have emerged among the 10 competing teams. Based on their performances, here's how they stack up:
-
SK Gaming (0-2) Despite strong mechanical skills, SK Gaming struggled to convert individual advantages into victories. Their lack of cohesive macro play and coordination issues need immediate attention.
-
Team BDS (1-1) BDS showed flashes of potential but remain inconsistent. Their win against SK Gaming demonstrated promise, but strategic weaknesses were exposed in their loss to G2.
-
Excel (1-1) Excel's performance has been middling. While securing a win against SK, they failed to maintain momentum against stronger opposition. Their new roster needs more time to develop synergy.
-
MAD Lions (1-1) Despite boasting experienced players, MAD Lions haven't found their rhythm yet. Their gameplay shows potential but lacks the polish needed to compete with top teams consistently.
-
Team Heretics (1-1) Heretics displayed solid fundamentals and good decision-making. Their balanced playstyle could yield better results as the season progresses.
-
Fnatic (1-1) The storied organization maintains middle-of-the-pack status. While their victory was convincing, consistency remains a concern. Their veteran roster should improve with more practice.
-
GIANTX (2-0) A surprising start for GIANTX, going undefeated in week one. Their aggressive playstyle and coordinated teamfighting have made them early season dark horses.
-
Team Vitality (1-1) Despite one loss, Vitality's overall gameplay quality places them high in the rankings. Their strategic depth and mechanical skill ceiling suggest strong potential for the season.
-
G2 Esports (2-0) G2 continues to dominate with clean macro play and superior teamfighting. Their coordination and adaptability make them strong title contenders.
-
Karmine Corp (2-0) KC has lived up to the hype, showcasing exceptional team synergy and strategic diversity. Their undefeated start and dominant performances justify their top position.
Note: Rankings reflect week one performances and may shift significantly as teams develop throughout the season.
