Academy Standouts highlights the players who performed best in the most recent week of NA Academy play. I’ll discuss a few of the most noteworthy players, then list some other strong performers below.
FakeGod, Top, 100 Thieves
Playing behind Ssumday isn’t easy, especially when we’re only a year removed from Ssumday’s little Academy side quest, where he dominated on a completely different level. But FakeGod has been doing his work in the background, chipping in consistently for 100 Academy, and in week 9 he broke out and showed not only why he has earned LCS reps in the past, but also why he has continued to hold his Academy spot despite having a strong prospect, Tenacity, playing with 100X and nipping at his heels.
