Reverse sweep kings: MAD Lions win their third LEC title

MAD Lions conquered their third LEC title after reverse-sweeping Team BDS in one of the most entertaining matches the fans have seen since the beginning of the season. Silver Scrapes reverberated in the LEC Studio just as the winners punched their ticket to London’s MSI as the region’s first seed on April 23. 

After securing back-to-back titles in 2021, MAD Lions were looking for a way to regain the LEC crown, and they did so in style, snatching it away from BDS by reverse-sweeping the series. It was the first time a grand final of any competitive region featured two pentakills—one from each team—but it was MAD Lions’ Jinx pentakill that proved to be the more impactful one.
