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.
RoseThorn extended his strong start to his sophomore year as a pro, leading CLG Academy to a 5-1 super week, posting an 8.4 KDA, 79.3% KP, and +337 GXD10, not to mention 6 First Blood kills or assists in 6 games. He had two huge games on Viego, looking especially dominant in game 2 against Evil Geniuses. He also played Jarvan IV twice as well as Gwen and Volibear. The CLG main team may be struggling, but CLG Academy is doing great and RoseThorn is at the forefront.

Luger, Bot, 100 Thieves
The 100 Thieves org has been waiting for Luger to get to the US so he could join his team, and he was finally able to join in the action. What an arrival! In two games of Kai’sa he asserted himself in lane, picked up multikills in team fights, and put out over 800 damage per minute.
