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 standouts, then list some other players whose performances caught my eye below.
eXyu got to play Lee Sin twice in week 2 for some reason. He picked up 7 kills in each game, and his 7/1/9 showing against C9 Academy must have felt especially good since he was part of the org’s now-defunct Amateur team last year and they opted to import Malice instead of bringing him up into Academy themselves. His constant trap plays with JayJ paid off beautifully, and he capped his week with a game-winning Baron steal against TLA.

There’s a very strong case from ry0ma as the MVP of Proving Grounds, and certainly the MVP of 100T’s reverse sweep to win the Grand Finals.
His control mage work on mostly Ryze and Orianna was a huge stabilizing factor for 100A, and he carried hard game in and game out. Just look at his DPM number.

Proving Grounds is the best place a player like Will could show up and get himself noticed. As one of NA’s top 5 prospects, he’s playing for his future, and what a future he has if he can continue to develop at this pace.
His 3/0/5 Xin Zhao was followed by a scoreline of 8/2/11 on Trundle, and he did it against a FlyQuest Academy team that has way more competitive experience and a very strong jungler of their own in Nxi.
