The revolutionary format of the LEC to close the final positions in the classification to the Worlds of League of Legends shows the wings in Europe. G2 Esports and MAD Lions wake up from their slumber with direct qualification to South Korea, but they also get a direct pass to the fight for the title in Montpellier.
The restructuring of the qualified teams and the reduction to three qualified teams in the LEC leave EMEA as the last major region pending references. G2 Esports was one of the big favorites and proved his potential in the ultimate series, while MAD Lions broke EXCEL’s streak to take the spot without permits or favors.
The two initial series leave many doubts in Fnatic, but especially in EXCEL. The British must overcome failure in a last best of five, but they have a marked ace up their sleeve to overcome a team they already beat recently… and also in a Bo5.
The great novelty of this season is that fourth place in Europe is not guaranteed, and although he will travel to South Korea as a possible representative, he will have to fight for it. The contender from the LEC and the one from North America will fight in a Bo5 in the Asian country at the gates of the Worlds, and the winner will get a place in the biggest competition in the world. League of Legends.
In the rest of the regions only China presents all its qualified teams in the absence of defining the seed of the rest of the contenders. In Korea this week the floodgates are closed with the two remaining teams, while regions such as PCS, Brazil, Vietnam and Latin America are still awaiting the results of the coming weeks.
