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.
A big playmaking week from Diamond couldn’t salvage more than 1 win in 4 games for FlyQuest Academy, but it was more than enough to catch my eye. He led 2v2 kills, made roaming ganks, and set up key picks as Leona, Thresh, and Lux.

If you talk to people inside the 100 Thieves org, they’ll proclaim Busio as the saviour of the NA Support talent pool. In his first week in Academy, he looked like it, especially in the series against CLG Academy where he absolutely popped off on Thresh and followed it up with a Tahm Kench game where he seemed to connect his knockup on every W he used. If Busio can play this well for even 50% of his games this year, he’s going to become everything 100 Thieves say he is.

Last week I included Kumo in the “additional standouts” and wrote:
If he can keep up that level he can definitely become a player to watch once again.
Well, he delivered an even stronger week this time around, driving FLY Academy to a 4-0 week over Golden Guardians Academy and Dignitas Academy (which may not sound like the stiffest opposition until you note that DIGA 2-0ed C9 Academy in their other series this week).
Diamond, Support, FlyQuest Academy
