The first LEC Playoffs are starting today with Round 1 of the new format and tomorrow it is our moment to shine as we take on Splyce. They bested us on both occasions during the regular season but Best of Five is a whole new beast and it is tough to predict which team will adapt better to the increased length of the matchup.

Our top laner Jorge 'Werlyb' Casanovas shared a similar sentiment when asked about the upcoming clash.

"I feel really excited about playing our first match of playoffs vs Splyce. I'm curious how we will do in a BO5 where both teams have time to adapt between games. Splyce is a strong team who have 2-0ed us in the regular season but I feel confident about myself and my team going into the match."

Counting the days until the highly anticipated confrontation with @Splyce.
We want to leave our mark and we're not backing down!

PLAYOFFS TIME at 17:00 CET!

A back and forth series against Splyce that ultimately ended in a 3-1 in their favour means that our Spring split is officially over. The guys fought hard and made a comeback in game 1 only to suffer defeats in the next three games. Still we are proud of their performance in their first LEC split and our long awaited return to the highest competition in Europe. We will see you in Summer!
