In preparation for the LCS summer split, I spent some time putting the LCS playerbase into tiers within each position. Here’s what I came up with.
These tiers are based on current performance level, with secondary consideration given to future potential. There are definitely players in this list who I expect to climb one or two tiers over the course of summer, but I don’t want to give them credit for that until they show it on the Rift in the LCS!
If you’ve got strong opinions about what I ended up with, feel free to let me know on Twitter!
Peter Dun, head coach of Evil Geniuses League of Legends, returns to the show to give his thoughts on MSI and the reasons for Cloud9’s weak performance; to talk us through EG’s mid-season roster changes at the LCS, Academy, and amateur levels; and to opine on NA talent development and infrastructure.
