Preview of MAD Lions vs Team Vitality at League of Legends LEC 2023 Summer

Prediction

The winner of the LEC 2023 Summer will qualify for the LEC Season Finals. MAD Lions and G2 Esports, however, have already qualified for it after their Winter and Spring Split victories, respectively. Hence, the stakes are high for Team Vitality to win the entire split, qualify for the LEC Season Finals, and potentially compete for a spot at the League of Legends World Championship 2023.

MAD Lions had a fantastic season overall if we're only taking the European opposition into account. They came in second at the winter tournament and took first place at the spring tournament.

Although they always perform phenomenally at the LEC, they seem to fall flat on the international stage. In the Mid-Season Invitational in 2023, the team got to play only two series. In the first match, they lost 0-3 against LCK giants T1. They then suffered another 0-3 loss against regional rivals G2 Esports and got kicked out of the tournament.

Team Vitality, on the other hand, have a lot to bring to the table if they want to prevail. Although they started their spring season excellently, they lost against Team BDS and the MAD Lions in the playoffs and got eliminated.

The star-studded group that revolves around midlaner Luka "Perkz" Perković has a good chance of winning the tournament. They showed resilience during the previous split because their early game-laning phases were brilliant.

The LEC teams are notorious for their unpredictable performances, and MAD Lions vs. Team Vitality will undoubtedly be an exciting matchup to watch. However, based on recent performances, the former is expected to win the series 2-1.
