League of Legends: LCK – Week 5 power rankings – The Griffin show
By Alexej Vogel
The following teams are currently in the top 6 which qualifies them for playoffs, though, things can change up quickly for some of those organizations, especially when the League of Legends meta changes.
6. DAMWON Gaming (B-)
Coming into this Split as one of the new organizations DAMWON Gaming were not expected by many to achieve great things. Now they are tied with Hanwha for 5th place in the League and are eager to settle that spot for the rest of the Split. Especially midlaner Heo “ShowMaker” Su has shown us exceptional League of Legends with an overall KDA of 5.77 he surely is one of the star players in this roster. We are up to see what DAMWON can achieve with more time and practice in the LCK.
5. Hanwha Life Esports (B)
This roster is stacked with names such as “Thal”, “Moojin”, “Lava” and many more who are more or less known though never really came to shine like a star or KeY (haha) player. What makes the former ROX Tigers organization better than their famous contenders below is their aggressive playstyle and ability to adapt very fast. There is (in my opinion) no lead player who highlights himself from everyone else in this squad but solid teamwork and lots of experience make Hanwha as great as they are.
4. Kingzone DragonX (B+)
Last year, this organization was hyped by millions of fans in Korea to lead the LCK into their glorious times again. Although their roster was stacked with famous high calibre players the team failed miserably and could not even qualify for Worlds. Times and rosters have changed and now we are looking at a different Kingzone which – again – has many great players though still struggles sometimes with the faced paced meta right now. Hopefully, they will not disappoint their fans immensely this time around, but the competition is even harder than before.
