Misfits take down MAD Lions, rise to third place in LEC Summer Split leaderboard

Misfits beat first-placed MAD Lions in their last game before the final superweek of the 2022 LEC Summer Split regular season. MAD Lions were looking for a win to lock in their spot in the playoffs stage, but Misfits stole that victory from them thanks to a deadly combination of a cat and a rat. 

From the beginning of the game, League fans had their eyes pointed towards the bot lane where Misfits displayed the aggressive and mortal combo of Twitch and Yuumi, while MAD Lions opted for a sparkling duo of Zeri and Rakan. According to Matúš “Neon” Jakubčík, the “cat is still very broken as a champion,” as he said in the post-game interview, and that’s why Misfits locked it first during draft. That duo would be proven to be the core of Misfits’ strategy towards victory.
