The Best Player From Each Lane During Week 5 of the LCS

This build has Tahm focus on Top Support acting as a meat shield and assisting others with tower dives and ganks. Tongue Lash is important to upgrade in the beginning, but the meat of this build is Thick Skin in the mid-game and Devour in the late-g

Flyquest has outperformed all exceptions this split, in large part due to their 22 year old German mid laner. Along with having the coolest name in the LCS, PowerOfEvil has led his team to four victories in a row. During week 5 he flexed his expansive champion pool, playing Orianna against Golden Guardians and Corki against Counter Logic Gaming, both firsts for him this split. PowerOfEvil was also the first player in the world to win a game as Corki this year. Immortals' Eika and DAMWON Gaming's ShowMaker in Korea were the only other players to use Corki, both losing their games on t he daring bombardier . As Flyquest looks to finish out the season strong, they will lean on PowerOfEvil to be a dominant force in the mid l

HLE vs T1 Highlights | Grand Finals | 2025 LoL KeSPA CUPThis time, the whole representation of the champion is literally flawless. All of the armor pieces along with the mighty sword look believable to an extent where you can almost see them being used in a battle. The amazingly good cosplay is so perfect that you can take it for an LoL screens

With the addition of Huni, Evil Geniuses look to bolster their already strong lineup. However, due to Riot Games' import restrictions, Huni might not play for EG's LCS roster in 2020. In order to play Huni, Evil Genuises would have to replace Bang with Academy bot laner Matthew "Deftly" Chen. It's more plausible that fans will see Huni play for EG's Academy team, and as long as Huni plays at least 50% of the games this summer, he'll be eligible to declare as a North American citizen for the 2021 Spring Split, and thus be able to play for EG without breaking any import restricti

Ssumday continued to be one of the most impactful players this past weekend, being the first in the LCS this split to use Lucian in the top lane. While playing against Golden Guardians on the versatile marksman, Ssumday outperformed his top lane opponent Hauntzer, who was playing Gangplank, by out farming him by 25 CS (creep score) at the 15-minute mark. In terms of XP (experience points), every one of Ssumday's teammates was losing to their respective opponents at the 15-minute mark while Ssumday himself led Hauntzer by an impressive 912 XP. The South Korea native utilized this early game advantage to carry his team to an impressive victory over the Golden Guardi

If you've been following China's League of Legends Pro League Of Legends Meta for a while, then you're probably aware of LGD's consistently poor performances in recent years. However, this may be coming to an end, or so their fans hope, with the additions of former RNG top laner Xie "Langx" Zhen-Ying and former Dominus players Ling "Mark" Xu and Su "xiye" Han-

Knight, along with JackeyLove, 369, yuyanjia and jungler Hung "Karsa" Hao-Hsuan will have their eyes on Summer Split title, looking to get revenge on JD Gaming for beating them in the 2020 Spring fin

With the season just halfway through, it can be argued that all five Cloud9 members are worthy of winning the Spring Split MVP. Each of them are dominating in their own way, but perhaps none are more deserving than Zven. Playing excellent both mechanically and mentally, Zven along with his support Vulcan have dominated the bot lane this season, and week 5 was no different. Zven played an excellent Varus against CLG, who Cloud9 unsurprisingly beat. What was surprising, however, was Cloud9's choice of bot lane in their second game against Immortals. Zven actually played "support" Senna, while Vulcan went Tahm Kench, acting as the "carry." This is a strategy similar to what Dignitas Academy employed in their matchup against Golden Guardians Academy, where AD carry Fenix went Senna and support Olleh went Galio. Fenix "supported" Olleh as he farmed with Ga

KT Rolster's 2020 Spring Split was a breath of fresh air for the franchise, who struggled heavily during 2019's summer. The team recently finished the split in fifth, after being forced to fight for their LCK roster spot in the 2019 Summer Promotion Tournament. Aiming to get back to their winning ways, KT Rolster resigned Son "Ucal" Woo-hyeon, who was let go by Griffin following their relegation and Song "Smeb" Kyung-ho, who left KT Rolster at the end of last year and remained a free ag

Although Top Esports looked phenomenal this tournament, they were about the only ones who did. Both LPL and LCK teams were no strangers to mid-game throws, literally throwing away their advantages and losing games because of

Varus seemed to be the only champion to be a perma-ban for every team in the Mid-Season Cup. The few times he slipped through the banning phase, he'd be immediately first picked by the blue team, making the red team who didn't ban him regret
