Over the last few weeks, MAD Lions’ League of Legends team has had to fight off waves of skeptics who doubted their capabilities on Summoner’s Rift, especially after their recent struggles through the 2023 LEC Spring Split. But after a well-fought series against the league’s defending champions today, they are ready to earn the respect of fans once more.
Many people expected G2 Esports to roll over MAD, especially after the samuis crushed their way to the playoffs with two back-to-back series wins against SK Gaming and KOI. They looked a lot more cohesive lately than MAD’s current form. But during this series, it felt like both teams were scmbling to find a foothold.
