The LEC resumes its activities, with the Spring Split 2024 regular season’s third and final week of matches. This new week promises to be a lucky one for all the teams who want to be at the top of the rankings. G2 Esports and Fnatic lead the way, followed closely by Team Heretics and Team Vitality, while anything remains possible for the rest of the rankings.
A week that promises to be explosive
The 2024 LEC Spring Split promises to be a veritable crescendo of suspense and intensity in the final week of the regular season, marking the end of a fierce battle for playoff qualification and strategic position in the rankings. With three days of competition, teams prepare to make their final effort in this race against time, where each match played on Friday (due to the Grand Final of the Masters Madrid VCT 2024 at Valorant which takes place on Sunday 24 March), Saturday, and Monday, reshapes the competition. can draw
We are entering the crucial stage of the regular season, and as mentioned below, all the matches are of capital importance, capable of significantly influencing the final ranking of the teams and determining their eligibility for the playoffs or place in the ‘TREE’. These matches are pivotal moments that can redefine the stakes of a season. This dynamic makes this final week of competition even more exciting, as each team fights not only for the win, but also for an advantageous position for the rest of the LEC Spring Split.
Focus on ranking
At the top of the list, Fnatic and G2 Esports shine with their exceptional performances, dominating the rankings with the confidence already gained for the playoffs. This assurance, however, does not dampen their thirst for victory, with each team looking to finish the regular season in a strong position. With two playoff spots already filled, this means only 6 are still in play, and there are still 8 who can claim them. Team Heretics and Team Vitality, behind the leading pair, are one step away from validating their ticket for the playoffs this spring segment, making their upcoming matches crucial to seal their fate.
The tension is also palpable for SK Gaming and Team BDS, who must navigate this final weekend carefully to secure their spot. For Karmine Corp and MAD Lions KOI, it’s comeback time, every victory vital to keep their chances of qualification alive. Finally, GiantX and Rogue, although facing significant challenges, are determined to leave the regular season on a positive note. These two teams currently have just one win each and the slightest mistake could prove costly. With the failure of the Winter Split, disease is obviously playing a big role in this Spring Split, and another failure could have dire consequences.
