So far, the League of Legends World Championship 2025 have undoubtedly been rough for LEC fans.
As the region’s third seed, Fnatic entered the tournament carrying the weight of years of unmet ambitions — the team has not reached the playoffs at Worlds since 2020, making this a crucial test of whether it can reclaim its former international stature.
Fnatic started its Worlds 2025 run with a loss to CTBC Flying Oyster, a team that went on to defeat T1. In Fnatic’s second match, the team faced LPL’s first seed Bilibili Gaming and were unable to secure a win.
