AC/AM Standouts highlights the players who performed best in the most recent week of NA Academy and amateur play. I’ll discuss a few of the most noteworthy standouts, then list some other players whose performances caught my eye below.
Contractz dominated FlyQuest Academy with a pair of Nidalee games where he exerted relentless pressure all around the map, especially working around Tony Top’s Camille and Jax picks to set up the side-laning win condition. His Nidalee javelins around the Baron pit in game 1 changed the story of the series, and his play overall was the main factor behind EGA’s upset over FLYA and their advancement in the upper bracket.

Copy, Mid, Cloud9
Copy is a 100 Thieves Next graduate, like Kenvi, though he wasn’t retained by 100 Thieves the way Kenvi and Tenacity were, and instead found himself signing with Cloud9 as the core North American prospect of their rebuilt Academy team. He’s a team-oriented Mid laner with good map awareness and game sense.

Eyla, Support, Team Liquid
Team Liquid Academy are counting on Eyla to be the best player on their team and lead them to victory, in somewhat of a parallel with their LCS squad and CoreJJ, and in Week 1 he came in and did just that, dominating on Rell against GGA, in particular.
