League of Legends: LCK player power rankings – Week 3

Mid lane

1. Heo “ShowMaker” Su (Sandbox Gaming)
2. Kim “Dove” Jae-yeon (Sandbox Gaming)
3. Son “Ucal” Woo-hyeon (Afreeca Freecs)

While his teammate, Kiin, had a down week, Ucal also struggled in Week 3. While it’s not a huge surprise that he struggled into Sandbox’s Dove, Kiin allowed Kuzan (who had been the worst mid laner in the LCK to that point) to go 3/0/16 in their series. If you’re getting styled on by Kuzan of all people, you need to adjust your approach.

4. Jeong “Chovy” Ji-hoon (Griffin)
5. Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok (SK Telecom T1)
6. Kim “Lava” Tae-hoon (Hanwha Life Esports)

Lava really popped off last week in their victory over Jin Air Green Wings, including a 9/1/4 performance on Azir. He did have the fortune to be facing rookie CheonGo in his first LCK match, but luckily he didn’t let the youngster get any bright ideas about taking down an established vet in his first game.

7. Kim “Gori” Tae-woo (SK Telecom T1)
8. Yoo “Naehyun” Nae-hyun (Kingzone DragonX)
9. Kang “Tempt” Myung-gu (Hanwha Life Esports)

Of all the LCK mid laners making their Summer Split debut in Week 3, Tempt was the only one who got to play a full series. He did well with a 3/1/3 match as a key contributor in Hanwha Life’s Game 2 win over Gen.G but he was notably quiet in their final game, with an uninspired 0/1/0 Leblanc game.

10. Gwak “Bdd” Bo-seong (KT Rolster)
11. Choi “CheonGo” Hyeon-woo
12. Lee “Kuzan” Seong-hyeok (Gen.G)
13. Lee “Grace” Chan-ju (Jin Air Green Wings)
