With the LEC Spring Split nearing its end we have some clear contenders for the title of the likes of KC, FNC, and MKOI as G2 has been rather sloppy this time around. Not only has the LEC been revitalized from being a one-team region, and the stakes are even higher given the new Fearless Draft format.
Having said that, let's take a look at the match from the Regular Season as each teams inches ever so slightly to Playoffs and possibly even MSI.

Winner: VIT
A great start to the series as VIT looked very coherent and on point with Naak Nako piloting his beloved Aatrox, proving to be quite the menace when ahead. Not only did the top gap resonate throughout the entire game, but Nisqy's Neeko was also to grab some accolades with Lyncas and Czajek following closely behind.
Overall, JNX' performance has been heavily criticized this split, and it seems that at some level it was warranted. Ultimately, VIT was able to develop nearly a 15K gold lead by the end of the game, kicking off the series 1-0.

Winner: VIT
A terrible side for SK as Czajek's Annie was able to rack some early-game kills that gave VIT priority for neutral objectives as Lyncas' Naafiri was rampaging through the map. It wasn't difficult for VIT to find the angles as once again a massive gold lead was established at the 19-minute mark, further showing just how much SK have been struggling this split to find a reliable way of playing the game.
Nonetheless, the fight for Playoffs is getting even spicier with several teams in contention to fill up the remaining two spots. Finally, VIT was able to make good use of their advantage and secure a clean 2-0 score for the series.
