Fnatic arrived at the winter season of the League of Legends EMEA Championship (LEC) as one of the clubs to take into account for the fight for the championship. The return of Martin Larsson «Rekkles»was a priori great news for the black&orange, who seek to win the European trophy. Weeks ago it would have been unthinkable to see the British organization fighting to enter the next phase of the league when access is up to eighth position. However, this is the reality of the European entity after the eighth matchday as it does not depend on itself.
Fnatic has given the big negative surprise of the LEC after losing against Astralis. The British organization has been surpassed by the Danish both mechanically and in terms of approach within Summoner’s Rift. Instead, Astralis has shown that it counts in Doğukan Balcı «113» and Lee Jeong-hoon «jeonghoon»with a great tool to be able to take games forward. In addition, the organization currently benefits from Kasper Kobberup’s state of grace.”kobbe«, decisive in the confrontation.
The day has not been especially positive for the USAclubs, since MAD Lions has been the only team that has won the victory. Javier Prades «elyoya»has once again led the lions against Team Heretics, who have already secured their qualification to the next phase. The only organization that can’t say that is Excel Esports, who have lost their chances for good after losing to SK Gaming. Team Vitality and Team BDS have starred in the bloodiest confrontation of the competition, but the French have taken the defeat to hold on to the leadership. G2 Esports, Vitality and MAD are the first ranked with the same record.
